Bosch dishwasher not draining is typically caused by clogged drain hose or failed drain pump. Bosch-specific factor: drain pump impeller blockage from glass shards or hard food debris — bosch lacks a hard food disposer on most models. Repair costs $100-$250 with free diagnostic and 90-day warranty.

Check valve deterioration from repeated exposure to hot water and detergent chemicals
Drain hose kinked at cabinet exit — tight European-style installations restrict hose routing
Triple filter system clog from not pre-rinsing dishes — Bosch design expects pre-rinsed loads
Control module drain relay failure on older 500 series boards from power surge damage

Seeing one of these codes? It likely indicates not draining.
Sacramento Bosch dishwasher drain issues are driven by hard water mineral scale on the check valve and drain pump impeller. The 500 series is popular in upscale Folsom and El Dorado Hills homes — hard water deposits calcify the check valve seat within 18-24 months, preventing proper sealing and causing drain-back. Monthly citric acid wash cycles slow mineral accumulation but do not eliminate it.
Remove triple filter assembly (twist and lift): inspect fine mesh filter for food debris, coarse filter for glass or hard items, micro filter for grease
Check drain pump through filter opening: use flashlight to verify impeller spins freely — any debris caught in blades needs manual removal
Test for E25 (drain pump blockage): disconnect unit from power for 60 seconds, restart — if E25 returns, pump impeller is physically blocked
Inspect drain hose routing under countertop: Bosch requires either air gap or high loop at least 20 inches above dishwasher base — verify with measuring tape
The technician removes and cleans the triple filter assembly first — this resolves about 40% of Bosch drain complaints. If the drain pump impeller is blocked, hard debris is extracted through the filter opening or the pump is accessed from underneath. Bosch drain pumps are compact modules that take 30-40 minutes to replace. The technician explains the pre-rinse requirement to owners unfamiliar with the no-disposer design.
