Bosch SHP68TL5UC/07 dishwasher Parts

For a Bosch dishwasher model SHP68TL5UC, we do not recommend running cycles with an E22 error because it typically points to a drain or filter restriction; continuing to run it can leave dirty water in the tub and strain the drain system. Use the steps in the SHP68TL5UC manual first.

What E22 usually means on this Bosch dishwasher

E22 commonly shows up when the dishwasher senses it cannot drain properly or water flow through the filter area is restricted.

Common causes to check:

• Filter assembly is clogged with food soil or grease
• Standing water in the sump area under the filter
• Drain hose kinked, pinched, or partially blocked
• Drain pump area obstructed (glass, labels, debris)
• Sink/disposer connection blocked (if connected to a garbage disposer)

Safe, practical steps before you run it again

Turn off power at the breaker before reaching into the sump area.

1. Remove and clean the filters thoroughly; rinse and scrub off grease.
2. Check the sump area for debris under the filter.
3. Inspect the drain hose routing for kinks and high-loop/air-gap issues.
4. If water remains in the tub, check the drain pump for blockage.

If you suspect a failed pump, the correct replacement for this model is the dishwasher drain pump 00631200.

Quick decision guide

What you see	What it points to	What to do next
Water standing in bottom	Drain restriction or pump issue	Clean filters, check hose, inspect pump area
Error returns right after start	Drain path blocked	Verify sink/disposer port and hose routing
Drains slowly, then errors	Partial clog	Deep-clean filters and check for debris in sump

Why it matters

E22 is a protection signal; clearing the restriction restores normal draining, prevents odor from stagnant water, and helps protect components like the drain pump and circulation system.

Drain and water-removal problems are the most common issues we see with Bosch dishwashers like model SHP68TL5UC, typically showing up as standing water in the tub, slow draining, or a cycle that stops because the unit cannot pump water out.

What you will usually notice

• Water left in the bottom after the cycle
• Gurgling sounds at the sink or air gap
• A cycle that ends early or seems to pause for a long time
• Dishes not fully clean because wash water is not circulating correctly
• A musty odor from trapped food and water

Quick checks that fix many “common problems”

Start with these no-tools steps before replacing parts:

• Clean the filter area and remove any debris (seeds, labels, glass)
• Check the drain path for kinks or clogs, especially where the hose loops up
• Make sure the sink drain/disposer connection is clear (new disposers often have a knockout plug)
• Confirm the spray arms spin freely and are not blocked by tall items
• Use the cycle and option guidance in the SHP68TL5UC owner's manual to match soil level and drying expectations

When it is likely a part issue

If the basics are good and the problem repeats, these parts are common suspects on SHP68TL5UC:

Symptom	Most likely system	Example part for this model
Standing water, won’t drain	Drain system	Dishwasher drain pump 00631200
Slow drain, occasional drain errors	Drain hose/air gap path	Dishwasher drain hose 00744881
Not filling or fills inconsistently	Fill system	Dishwasher water inlet valve 10023852

Why it matters

Drain and fill issues can trigger error codes, extend cycle time, and reduce cleaning performance because the dishwasher cannot maintain the right water level and circulation.

For code-based symptoms, use Bosch dishwasher error codes to match what you see on the display to the most likely cause.

For your Bosch dishwasher, the model number is printed on the appliance ID label, usually on the door edge or the tub frame that you can see when you open the door. Use that full model number to match parts and diagrams in the owner's manual.

Where to look on a Bosch SHP68TL5UC dishwasher

Check these common label locations (open the door and use a flashlight):

• Along the top edge of the door (inner edge)
• On the left or right side of the door edge
• On the tub frame just inside the door opening
• Near the hinge area on the tub frame
• On the side of the inner door panel

What to write down (so parts match)

Bosch labels often include several identifiers. For parts ordering, record:

• E-Nr (model number): this is the main model identifier
• FD number: production date code (helps confirm version)
• Z-Nr (if shown): additional factory identifier
• Any suffix after the model (for example “/07”), because it can affect fit

Quick guide to label fields

Label field	What it means	Why it matters
E-Nr	Model number	Ensures correct parts list and diagrams
FD	Production code	Helps match revisions within the same model
Suffix (example /07)	Version index	Can change which parts fit

Why it matters

Dishwashers can have multiple versions that look identical but use different pumps, valves, or control parts. Using the exact model and version helps you avoid ordering the wrong component, such as a dishwasher drain pump 00631200 or dishwasher water inlet valve 10023852.
