Bosch Dishwasher Drain Pump Parts — Models & Compatibility

Standing water at the bottom of your Bosch dishwasher? That gurgling sound at the end of a cycle? Your drain pump's likely calling it quits. This hub covers the 611332 drain pump replacement — the exact part that fits over 100 Bosch, Thermador, Gaggenau, and Kenmore dishwasher models. We're talking SHE3AR, SHE4AM, SHPM65, and dozens of other series that all share this same pump design.

Is This the Right Part for Your Model?

Check your dishwasher's model number — it's usually on a label inside the door frame or along the top edge of the door. Match it against our compatibility list below. Look for the exact series code (like SHE3AR52UC) followed by the production number (the /06 or /14 part). If your model's listed, this pump's a direct fit. No modifications needed.

About This Replacement Drain Pump

This is the motor assembly that forces water out of your dishwasher tub through the drain hose. The pump sits at the bottom of the unit and runs for about 60-90 seconds at the end of each cycle. When it fails — and they do fail — you'll see standing water that won't drain, or you'll smell that stagnant water odor even after running a cycle. The most common failure mode? The impeller gets jammed with debris (broken glass, food particles, twist ties), or the motor windings burn out after years of service. Either way, the pump stops moving water. This replacement includes the complete motor housing, impeller, and mounting bracket. Replaces Bosch part numbers 00611332, AP4339596, and PS3477702.

Common Symptoms That Point to Drain Pump Failure

• Dishwasher not draining properly — Water pools at the bottom, dishes come out sitting in dirty water
• Dishwasher has an unpleasant odor — Stagnant water smell that won't go away, even between cycles
• Grinding or humming noise during drain cycle but no water movement
• Error codes related to drainage (check your manual for specific codes)

Installation Difficulty & What You're Getting Into

This repair rates as moderate difficulty. You'll need to pull the dishwasher out from under the counter, disconnect the water supply and drain lines, tip the unit on its back, and access the pump from underneath. The actual pump swap takes about 15 minutes once you've got access — it's held in place with a mounting bracket and twist-lock mechanism. The time-consuming part is getting the dishwasher out and back in without damaging your cabinets or flooring.

Pro Tip: Clean While You're In There

If your dishwasher's not draining right, there's probably buildup elsewhere too. Once you've got the new pump installed and everything's running again, run a cleaning cycle with Affresh dishwasher cleaner. It'll remove soap scum and mineral deposits from the spray arms, filters, and hidden passages. Improves wash performance and keeps that new pump working efficiently.
