Part 11031987 Dishwasher Junction Box Kit
Purpose
Provides a safe electrical connection for hardwired dishwasher installations.
Details
The 11031987 is a genuine OEM junction box kit designed specifically for Bosch, Thermador, and Gaggenau dishwashers. This kit is required when the dishwasher is hardwired into the home’s electrical system rather than using a standard three-prong plug. It serves as the primary interface between the house wiring and the appliance's power cable, ensuring a stable and secure electrical transition. Common symptoms of a failing junction box include the dishwasher failing to power on, intermittent loss of power during cycles, or visible signs of electrical arcing and heat damage at the wire terminals. This updated kit provides a reliable housing to protect electrical connections from moisture and physical strain.
Included Items
Power cord, junction box housing, mounting hardware, and internal wiring. Required tools: Phillips-head screwdriver, 5/16" nut driver, and wire strippers.
