Bosch SHU43C06UC/17 dishwasher Parts

Yes. Most Bosch built-in dishwashers, including the Bosch SHU43C06UC, are made to fit a standard 24-inch-wide dishwasher opening; Bosch also offers compact 18-inch-wide models. Always confirm your exact cutout and hookup clearances in the installation guide.

What “standard size” means for dishwashers

A “standard” built-in dishwasher typically fits these common cabinet dimensions:

• Width: about 24 inches (full size) or about 18 inches (compact)
• Height: designed for standard under-counter installations (adjustable feet help fine-tune fit)
• Depth: designed to align with standard countertops and cabinet faces

Even when the width is standard, small differences in height adjustment range, toe-kick clearance, and door panel clearance can affect fit.

Quick size comparison

Dishwasher type	Typical width	Typical use case
Full-size built-in	~24 in.	Most kitchens and replacements
Compact built-in	~18 in.	Smaller kitchens, tight cabinet runs

What to measure before you buy or replace

Measure the opening and verify utilities before ordering parts or planning an install:

• Cabinet opening width (side-to-side at the front and back)
• Opening height (floor to underside of countertop)
• Opening depth (back wall to cabinet face)
• Water supply and drain routing (hose path, high loop/air gap requirements)
• Door swing clearance (adjacent cabinets, handles, and flooring transitions)

For installation-specific requirements for Bosch SHU43C06UC, we rely on the installation guide.

Why it matters

A dishwasher that is “standard width” can still be a poor fit if the opening is slightly short, the flooring was raised, or the drain and electrical connections are not positioned correctly. Confirming measurements first prevents leaks, vibration, and door alignment issues.

If you need replacement parts after confirming fit, you can order Bosch SHU43C06UC parts from the parts list for this model, or search by model number on Sears PartsDirect.

An E17 error on a Bosch SHU43C06UC dishwasher points to a water fill problem (the dishwasher senses too much incoming water or an overfill condition). Fixing it usually means correcting water pressure and restoring normal fill control; then run a cancel-drain to clear the fault per the owner's manual.

Quick fixes to try first (no parts)

• Turn the dishwasher off, then back on; run Cancel/Drain to empty the tub.
• Make sure the water supply valve under the sink is fully open.
• Check the inlet hose for kinks, crushing, or a clogged screen at the connection.
• Reduce water pressure if your home pressure is high (most dishwashers run best around 40 to 80 PSI).
• If the tub is overfilling, shut off the water supply immediately and do not run another cycle.

What usually causes E17

E17 is most often triggered when the dishwasher detects abnormal fill behavior. Common causes include:

• High household water pressure
• Restricted inlet flow (debris in the inlet screen or a kinked hose)
• A fill valve that is sticking open or not regulating flow correctly
• A level-sensing issue caused by air gaps, suds, or water left in the base area

Parts that commonly solve it (when checks do not)

If the basic checks do not stop E17 from returning, the most common repair is replacing the water inlet valve.

Symptom you see	Most likely area	What to do
E17 appears early in fill	Water supply pressure	Verify pressure; correct if above typical range
Slow fill, then error	Inlet screen or hose	Clean screen; straighten hose
Overfilling or water keeps entering	Inlet valve	Replace valve 00425458

Why it matters

E17 is the dishwasher protecting against improper water level. Correcting it prevents overfilling, leaks, poor washing performance, and repeated cycle interruptions.

The most common Bosch dishwasher problem is a drain-related issue: water left in the tub because the filter area (large object trap) or drain path is restricted. Leaks are also common, usually tied to the door gasket or fill components. Use the SHU43C06UC owner's manual for the exact cleaning points and cycle indicators.

What to check first (fast, no-parts steps)

• Remove and clean the filter area and large object trap; clear food, labels, and glass fragments.
• Check and clean the spray arms so the holes are not blocked.
• Confirm the drain hose is not kinked, crushed, or routed in a way that traps water.
• Wipe and inspect the door gasket for debris that prevents a tight seal.
• Run a hot wash cycle after cleaning to flush the sump area.

Common symptoms and the most likely cause

Symptom	Most likely cause	What usually fixes it
Standing water, odor	Clogged filter/large object trap or restricted drain path	Clean filter area; inspect drain routing
Not cleaning well	Spray arm holes blocked, filter dirty	Clean spray arms and filter area
Leaking at the door	Dirty, torn, or mis-seated door gasket	Clean gasket; replace if damaged
Won’t fill or fills slowly	Water inlet valve issue or supply restriction	Verify supply; replace valve if needed

Parts that commonly solve these problems

If cleaning and hose checks do not correct the issue, these model-compatible parts are common fixes:

• Drain restriction or poor draining: inspect/replace the drain hose 00263099 if it is split, soft, or internally blocked.
• Leaks at the door: replace the door seal 00432490 if it is torn, hardened, or no longer sealing.
• Filling problems: the inlet valve 00425458 is a frequent replacement when the dishwasher will not fill correctly.

Why it matters

Drain and seal problems can leave standing water around or under the dishwasher, which the manual warns against because it can lead to mold growth and floor damage. Keeping the filter area, spray arms, and door gasket clean prevents repeat clogs, odors, and leaks.
