Hello,

I have a Bosch dishwasher model SHU43C that I believe has blown a fuse. The dishwasher has worked without issue since I installed it approx two years ago. The other night went to use it and no power...

I would like to take a look at the fuse and determine if the fuse is blown. Seems that fuse location for Bosch models is a secret. (nothing in manual or easily found online) I suspect the fuse maybe in the control panel?

Can anyone point me in the right direction and verify fuse location for this model?

Thanks.

I don't believe that most dishwashers have fuses. They rely on the circuit breaker in the circuit panel.

Here's a link to the owner's manual for your model. There's no mention of an internal fuse. In fact, they say this:

"Indicator light(s) do not come on
A fuse may have blown or a circuit breaker tripped. Check the fuse or circuit breaker at your fuse box/breaker box and replace the fuse or reset the breaker if necessary.

Perito - thanks for the response. It would appear that something has failed in the units power board controlling the power on/off switch and selections for type of wash cycle. I have verified that the circuit breaker is fine and that power to the unit is fine. So, unfortunately I will have to relent and call a service tech... hello wallet!
