Bosch 165301 Dishwasher Float

Product Description

The BOSCH 165301 is a replacement float designed for use in Bosch dishwashers. The float monitors water level inside the dishwasher tub, signaling the water inlet valve to stop filling when the correct level is reached. When this component fails or becomes stuck, the unit may overfill or fail to fill properly. This part is manufactured to OEM specifications, ensuring a direct fit and reliable function during normal wash cycles. Appliance technicians and experienced DIY installers typically handle this replacement as part of routine dishwasher service.

This float is intended for residential dishwasher applications. It is used in situations where the dishwasher is overfilling, underfilling, or triggering flood-protection shutoff incorrectly. Replacing a worn or damaged float restores proper water level control and protects the unit from water damage caused by overfill events. No compatibility data beyond the Bosch brand was provided with this listing.

Installation Notes

Disconnect power to the dishwasher at the breaker and shut off the water supply valve before beginning service. The float assembly is typically located in the front corner of the dishwasher tub and may require removal of the lower spray arm or tub base cover to access. A qualified appliance technician should perform this repair if there is any uncertainty about the wiring or water supply connections. Verify the replacement part number against the unit's service label before installation.
