Bosch Dishwasher Drain Pump Parts — Models & Compatibility

If your Bosch dishwasher won't drain or you're hearing a grinding noise at the end of the cycle, the drain pump is likely failing. This hub covers the 00631200 drain pump assembly that fits most Bosch SHE-series dishwashers, plus compatible Thermador, Gaggenau, and Kenmore models. This is the OEM-spec pump that replaces part numbers AP5972147, PS11704799, 631200, 4578287, and 1208028.

Is This the Right Part for Your Model?

The 00631200 drain pump fits a wide range of Bosch dishwashers, primarily in the SHE3AR, SHE53T, SHE65T, SHE68T, SHE863, SHE878, and SHE89P series. To verify compatibility, locate your model number on the inside edge of the dishwasher door (open the door and look at the top or side frame). Match your complete model number against the compatibility list below — the entire model number including letters and digits must match.

About This Replacement Part

The drain pump is what evacuates water from your dishwasher tub after each wash and rinse cycle. It's a motor-driven impeller assembly mounted at the base of the tub that pushes water through the drain hose and into your home's waste line. When it fails, you'll typically see standing water in the bottom of the tub after a cycle completes, or hear the pump motor humming without actually moving water. The 00631200 is the complete pump assembly including motor, impeller housing, and mounting bracket. It's designed as a direct replacement — you'll remove the old pump as a unit and install this one in its place. Bosch engineered this pump to handle the high-temperature water and detergent exposure that comes with normal dishwasher operation, but like any electromechanical component, it eventually wears out. Most pumps last 7-10 years depending on usage frequency.

What You're Replacing

The drain pump sits at the lowest point of the dishwasher tub, usually accessible from underneath after you remove the lower access panel or tip the unit on its back. It connects to the sump assembly via a rubber boot or clamp fitting, and has an electrical connector that plugs into the main control harness. When you're replacing it, you'll need to disconnect the power, remove the pump mounting screws, detach the drain hose, unplug the electrical connector, and reverse the process with the new pump. The job typically takes 30-45 minutes if you've got basic hand tools and a decent workspace.
