Some of the bosch dishwashers have something similar to a molex plug that the cord attaches to. They come with a plug but you can buy a replacement cord that terminates in a box/wires. It may just be crap installation with improper contact/torque. I don't know the cause.No problems with my Bosch hardwired dishwasher so hopefully this isn't jinxing anything. No "kit" to speak of - just lugs for the 3 wires to screw down onto.
