How Do I Replace the Control Module on a Bosch Dishwasher?

The control module of your Bosch dishwasher is the brain of the appliance and controls all of the dishwasher's functions. Without the control module, the dishwasher will not function, and it will not properly function if the control module is damaged. The control module is located inside of the control panel fascia, which is located at the top of the dishwasher door. To replace the control module, you must first disassemble the control panel.
