Bosch SHEM3AY56N

Model # SHEM3AY56N

The SHEM3AY56N rounded out the SHEM 100 Series trio in black. Anything of this age that has spent its life under a granite counter tends to share one specific problem: the vent on the door discharges warm, wet air, and where that air has been hitting an unprotected underside of the countertop or an adjacent cabinet stile for years, the wood swells. The fix is a moisture deflector strip, and it is a five-minute job that saves a cabinet door.

FAQ

Bosch SHEM3AY56N FAQ

Usually not. The door vent releases warm moist air at the end of a cycle, and over years that does the damage. A deflector strip under the counter edge stops it.

When the soil sensor lens fogs or films over, the machine reads every load as dirty and keeps rinsing. Cleaning or replacing that sensor brings cycle times back to normal.
