    The bottom of the dishwasher is not fully pressed in and the salt container is too low. At the back, in the left corner, the tank plate is not folded.

    I considered this option when reassembling the bottom, but the salt tank is rigidly mounted to the bottom of the washing chamber A and the jacket has no clearance for adjustments, so it falls off.

    I don't really know what you mean. Both plates holding the underside of the dishwasher blew off properly when reassembled.

    I started taking the coat off. I already know what the seals of these joints look like. There is an O-ring tightened by a plastic ring mounted on an interference fit. Mantle steps are included in the whole.

    Installed correctly:

    For me, the plastic ring in the left outlet of the tank was loose / insufficiently tightened, which made it float freely together with the O-ring and from this place water spouted, which quickly activated the sensor at the bottom of the dishwasher and the error e15 popped up.
    All that's left for me to do is clean my coat and put everything back together, praying that everything will be tight :)
    But I'll do it after him ..
    Maybe someone has an idea how this ring could be loosened? Let me add that the coat was heavily contaminated at this point:

    Could that be the cause? Any suggestions are welcome!

    Edit: Dishwasher folded back, run on the 70 ° C program, everything tight, works as it should.
    Thanks!

    Both connections are leaking, water is gushing out. The problem is that I do not know what these connections should look like when they are additionally sealed and the search for some photos was unsuccessful.

    I am just after the total dissolution of my dishwasher: SMV50E90EU.

    In this case, a badly fitted salt tank is to blame. By placing your head close to this side of the dishwasher, you will see the tine pins at the bottom of the salt reservoir that should fit into the correct positions on the lower gray bottom base. The salt reservoir has just collapsed and therefore the top pieces have not fully inserted into the salt reservoir seats and the o-rings are not holding the ports.

    Maybe some of you have photos of these connections in your dishwashers or know how it should be sealed properly?

    If any of you were so kind as to enlighten me about the tank with which this mantle is connected, I would be grateful, because it will be easier for me to look for solutions.


    It is an integrated reservoir for softening salt and ion exchange resin.

    PS For me, "wiring" helped, because I have a gasket integrated with the bottom bowl. In addition, I sealed the "hole" above the patex crystal sealing rod and after 2 cleanings at 65 degrees, nothing leaks. :)

Topic summary

The discussion centers around troubleshooting the E15 error in Bosch dishwashers, particularly the SMI40M35EU model. Users report that the error typically indicates a leakage issue, often occurring at the junction of the dishwasher chamber and the plastic drain pan. Symptoms include high temperatures during washing and water accumulation triggering the flood sensor. Various DIY solutions are proposed, including replacing gaskets, using self-adhesive tape to enhance seals, and thoroughly cleaning the gasket and surrounding areas. Some users emphasize the importance of identifying the exact source of the leak before attempting repairs, as leaks can originate from multiple points, including the salt tank and door seals. The effectiveness of repair kits and sealing methods is also discussed, with mixed results reported.
