AEG dishwasher parts are critical for maintaining the machine’s cleaning efficiency and durability. Over time, normal wear and tear, limescale buildup, or accidental damage can cause parts to fail. Below is an overview of the most common spare parts you may need:
- Dishwasher Pumps:
- Drain Pump: This is essential for expelling wastewater at the end of cycles. Issues include standing water or error codes.
- Circulation Pump: Ensures water is distributed evenly during cleaning. A faulty pump can result in poor cleaning performance.
- Door Seals: These seals prevent leaks around the dishwasher door. Visible cracks, wear, or persistent leaks signal the need for replacement.
- Spray Arms: Rotate to distribute water for cleaning. Clogs, cracks, or uneven water flow may require new arms.
- Heating Elements: Heat water during cycles for effective cleaning and drying. Signs of failure include cold water or incomplete drying.
- Filters: Capture debris and prevent blockages. Regular cleaning extends filter life, but damaged filters should be replaced.
- Racks and Baskets: Hold dishes securely. Rust, broken sections, or difficulty sliding indicate the need for replacement.
- Electronic Control Boards: Manage all dishwasher functions. Malfunctions can disrupt cycles or cause errors.
Technical Specifications
Selecting AEG dishwasher parts requires close attention to the following:
- Model Compatibility: To identify compatible parts, use the appliance’s model number, typically found on the inner door panel.
- Dimensions: Ensure racks, spray arms, and seals fit your specific model.
- Material Quality: Opt for rust-resistant and heat-tolerant materials, especially racks and heating components.
- Electrical Ratings: Ensure electronic components like pumps and control boards match your dishwasher’s voltage and power specifications.
Installation Guidance
Here’s how to install common AEG dishwasher spare parts safely and effectively:
- Disconnect Power and Water Supply: Ensure the dishwasher is unplugged and water valves are closed before starting.
- Identify and Access the Faulty Part: Locate the part using your manual or online diagrams. Remove panels as needed.
- Remove the Old Part: Carefully detach screws, hoses, or connectors. Take note of wiring arrangements for electrical components.
- Install the Replacement Part: Fit the new part securely, ensuring proper alignment. Reattach all connectors and fasteners.
- Reassemble and Test: Reinstall panels, restore power and water, and run a test cycle to ensure functionality.
Safety Tip: Always wear gloves and use the proper tools to avoid injuries or accidental damage during installation.

- Warranties: Choose parts with warranties to protect your investment.
