Bosch Dishwasher loud grinding noise

Dishwasher Repair
1

Hi,
My 5 year old Bosch dishwasher is used daily and the other night made a horrific loud grinding noise that even woke up my dogs! I turned it off and cleaned out the trap finding a little piece about the size of an almond. The piece looks like metal colored plastic on the front with "MONOPOL" stamped on it and black on the back. The dishwasher is not working right, won’t dispense soap properly now & the timer seems to stay stuck on 1 minute for 30 minutes. Any ideas? Thanks so much!

Does the circulation (aka a wash) pump work?

Here are the break down diagrams for the Bosch dishwasher http://www.appliancepartspros.com/partsearch/model.aspx?diagram_id=192345&&model_id=5110132

I have a similar problem with a Bosch SHU4006C/U06 dishwasher. It makes the noise at various times during the cycle and sometimes goes on for several seconds. It doesn’t stop when opening the door or turning off the water supply. Even more puzzling is that it sometimes goes for several weeks without making the noise, then it’ll start up again.

I’m considering buying the circulation pump repair kit but it seems to me that if there is a problem with the pump it would make the noise constantly.

Any input is appreciated.

Kent,

This is very strange, especially if it does it with the open door. I do not think this the pump. I’m stumped.

A new problem now. The dishwasher quit completely part way through the rinse cycle last night. I assume it’s something power related.

I have a Frigidaire front load washer model ltf7000eg0, it is eating our clothes. When doing towels never happens, do a load of white or colors and undoubtly when the was is over with it has destroyed a pair of pants or a shirt tec, it gets in the bellows somehow and gets stuck and it wont let go.

Has anybody experienced this problem with a front loader? My guess here is that it needs a new bellows kit installed? Also I saw that lowes has a frigidaire washer model lafw3511kb that is a scratch and dent model, wonder if I could buy that and transfer my outside to that machine just use it for the insides wonder if it would fit the same??

Any ideas would be so helpful
