If your dishwasher is currently running a cycle that you want to stop, you will want to avoid opening it enough that water sprays out.

Most normally, this is due to a burned area of the printed circuit board inside of the controller. This is a well documented failure, even to the point that Bosch has a tech bulletin out that explains that a repair for this is to 'refloat' the damaged area with solder.
However, this is only a temporary repair at best. The cause of the burned point on the board is due to an undersized relay. From the time the dishwasher is first used, the undersized relay contacts begin degrading and carburizing. With each wash cycle, more carburzing causes increased resistance of the contacts, which result in heat. The heat is conducted down the metal reeds inside the relay, which get hot enough to melt the solder. As the solder begins to melt away, the connection between the connector pin on the relay and the printed circuit board begins to intermittently fail, to a point that it will arc and burn at the failed point on the circuit board.
The ONLY correct solution is replacement of the relay with one rated for the duty. This is true when repairing the board, or when choosing to purchase a new board (of all the boards I have repaired, I have not seen any where Bosch has upgraded their design).
I maintain a stock of the various relays used by Bosch on this board, with quick turnaround of just a relay, or a repaired board (I even buyback any boards you may have). These timer boards are also used on a number of different manufactures dishwashers, so if your timers looks anything like the Bosch units, the repairs are the same.

Cycle Status 2 09 Bosch Dishwasher Reviews
If your Bosch dishwasher shows an E09 error code, you have to eliminate the problem immediately because this breakdown is considered to be serious.
What is the reason for the appearance? What does it mean?
The E09 error of the dishwasher by a famous German brand Bosch informs about the breakage of the heating element. It has burnt. The dishwashers’ heater somewhat differs from the dishwashers one, since it is integrated with the circulation pump and cannot be replaced separately.
Important! The E09 error code is programmed only in the machines of the third generation. Therefore, it is important to know exactly the model of your device to buy a suitable replacement part.
In rare cases, this error may occur due to a failure of the temperature sensor or control card, as well as in the case of a fault in the wiring from the heating element to the module.
There are 3 reasons why the heater has burnt:
- There is water in the heater. It can get to the heater through the leakage points that have appeared. Most often, this place is a rubber band, which is placed between the dishwasher body and filter glass.
- The drainage filter is clogged. Because of blockages, water enters the tank slowly, and the heating element overheats. It leads to rapid wear.
- Hard water and scale. If there is not enough salt in the ion exchanger, the water becomes stiff. When it is heated, the scale is formed on the heating element. Over time, the bloom causes prolonged water heating and the heater breakage.
Replacement of the heater
To check and replace the heating element of the Bosch dishwasher is not difficult. For this, we need a crosshead screwdriver, a multimeter, and a new heating element. The main difficulty is that the heater is connected to the circulation unit and in order to remove the heating element, it is necessary to get away this unit. It means that it is necessary to disassemble the dishwasher almost completely. If this does not stop you, start working.
