Bosch SHE68R55UC/67 dishwasher Parts

No. Many built-in dishwashers are close to 55 cm deep, but dishwasher depth is not universal and varies by style and how the unit is installed. For Bosch model SHE68R55UC, we recommend confirming the required cabinet opening and clearances in the SHE68R55UC installation guide.

Dishwasher depth depends on whether it’s built-in, freestanding, or compact, plus whether you measure the cabinet box or include the door/handle.

• Built-in (most common): typically about 55 to 60 cm deep
• Freestanding: often closer to 59 to 62 cm deep
• Compact/space-saver: commonly around 50 to 55 cm deep
• Panel-ready/custom front: depth can change based on the panel thickness
• Handles and control panels: can add noticeable depth beyond the cabinet box

For Bosch SHE68R55UC, the installation instructions focus on the cabinet opening size and routing clearances rather than a single “dishwasher depth” number.

Use these checks so you don’t end up with a dishwasher that “fits” on paper but not in real life.

• Measure from the back wall to the front edge of the cabinet opening
• Account for water line, drain hose, and electrical routing behind the unit
• Decide whether you’re measuring to the door face or to the handle
• Verify the dishwasher can sit flush with the cabinet face (or your preferred reveal)
• Confirm the door opens fully without rubbing trim, toe-kick, or adjacent doors

Depth differences of even 1 to 2 cm can prevent a built-in dishwasher from sliding fully into place, can cause the door to bind, or can force tight hose bends that lead to poor draining. Following the installation dimensions for SHE68R55UC prevents fit and performance problems.

On a Bosch dishwasher like model SHE68R55UC, an E24 error usually points to a drain problem (water not leaving the tub fast enough). We recommend starting with basic drain-path checks you can do safely; call a technician if the error returns after cleaning and hose checks.

• Cancel the cycle and let the unit drain, then restart a short cycle.
• Turn off power at the breaker before inspecting anything under the dishwasher.
• Clean the sump area and filters so water can reach the drain pump.
• Check the sink drain and garbage disposal inlet (a clog there can trigger E24).
• Inspect the drain hose for kinks, crushing, or a blocked high loop.
• If the dishwasher recently moved, confirm the drain hose routing matches the SHE68R55UC installation guide.

If the drain path is clear but E24 persists, these parts are common suspects on Bosch dishwashers:

• You see standing water plus repeated E24 after cleaning filters and checking the hose.
• The dishwasher must be pulled out to access wiring, pumps, or internal drain components.
• You find damaged wiring, leaking connections, or signs of overheating.

Running with an E24 drain fault can leave dirty water in the tub, reduce cleaning performance, and strain the drain pump. Clearing the drain path early often prevents a bigger repair.

The most common Bosch dishwasher issue we see on the SHE68R55UC is a drain problem: water left in the tub because the filter area or drain path is restricted, or the drain system is not pumping out properly. Start with cleaning checks before replacing parts; then test the drain components.

• Cancel the cycle and let the dishwasher attempt to drain.
• Remove and clean the filter area in the bottom of the tub; clear food debris and labels.
• Check the sink drain and garbage disposal inlet (a blocked inlet stops dishwasher draining).
• Inspect the drain hose routing for kinks and make sure it has a high loop under the counter.
• Verify the dishwasher is fully installed and secured; an uninstalled unit can tip when the door is opened (see the SHE68R55UC installation guide).

If the checks above do not restore draining, these model-matched parts are the most common next steps:

• Drain pump 00642239 if you hear humming but little or no water movement
• Dishwasher drain hose 00668108 if the hose is split, kinked, or internally restricted
• Dishwasher drain filter 17008311 if the filter is damaged or will not seal/seat correctly

A dishwasher that cannot drain often cannot start the next cycle, can leave odors, and can trigger Bosch error codes. Fixing the drain path early also protects the pump and helps prevent leaks.
