bosch are HORRIBLE to work on, most likely you will HAVE to strip the
entire unit to get it apart.
the only part replaceable without complete disassembly is the water
valve.
boschs wash excellent but break way too often and parts costs
astroniomical;
they made it a sealed unit so water cantr leak even if theres a
malfunction, but gave zero thought to repairs.
getting it out from under the counter is the least of your conerns:(
