How to Replace the Float Switch Assembly on a Bosch Dishwasher

In your Bosch dishwasher, the float switch assembly is connected to the lower spray arm and sump pump assembly, and the float switch assembly contains the float switch that determines the amount of water allowed into the dishwasher. If you notice the spray arm is dispersing too much or not enough water, you may have a broken float switch assembly. You can replace the float switch assembly part to ensure the water comes out of the spray arm properly.
