That worked thanks. Hopefully it keeps working. I brought some compatiable carbon brushes which stated that they work with my model it was the ones with the quickest delivery. If the brushes pop out again, I will try ordering and fitting some original bosch brushes. Thanks for your help all :)

One of the carbon brushes popped out.. I pushed it back in/re-seated it and it still is giving the E21 error code. Can anyone verify please what the exact way to reset the machine is/to clear the current fault. I got the following off the web Try erasing the stored codes first, in case it's a...

darn it, i spoke too early i tested in on a rinse cycle and it worked - no errors. When it was put on a proper wash cycle today, I am told it gave the same E21 error again grrrrrr. Will it be the motor or bad carbon brushes??

Update - changing the carbon brushes worked, I managed to change the brushes without having to remove the motor woohoo. It was fairly easy but fiddly - trying to get and squeeze/push the springs in took a while.

Thanks, I will try ordering some new carbon brushes and fitting them to see if that resolves the issue.

Hi all, I have a Bosch wab24161gb/05 washing machine. It is giving a E21 error code. There is not mentioned in any of the documentation/manual of the machine, but from the few posts on the forum, is this due to the carbon brushes on the machine needing replacement or something more serious...

Thanks will looking into it, next time I go around. I remember I had a issue my toilet flushing a while ago and I tried removing and cleaning that valve which resolved the issue but that was not a ball cock type one so will need to workout the easiest way to locate the location and how to remove...

it is an old style one - ball cock type similiar to this one (copied from someone else's post)

It runs off mains water, irritatingly it did not do it today, when I popped around after work. Tried flushing the look 3 or 4 times but no luck getting it to make the noises and vibrating pipe, but i was told it is worse in the morning(s). There is no valve to slow down the flow of water to the...

thanks, will check and try slowing down the flow of refiling - just to add that it makes the noise/vibrating when it comes towards the end of filling up if I remember correctly. I will head there tonight and check

No i don't think so. It is only when flushing the downstairs loo and it is refilling that it makes this noise/vibrating pipe(s)

Not sure, they are under the floor boards. They have only recently in the last 3 or 4 weeks started doing this. Thanks.

Hi all, At my brother's house, there is an downstairs loo, recently once you flush the loo and the cistern is filling/refilling up the water pipe has started making noise and "vibrating"/shaking, is this due to air getting into the system/water hammer issue? How can I check where/work out where...

Thanks all, I will try getting another one and see if that resolved it.

Hi all, I have just replaced glands on a kitchen tap (a 1/4 turn) but it now has a real slow drip on it - despite it being a gland there is a slow drip. How can I get rid of this/fix this drip please? These are the new ones installed -...

Here is a better and more complete video, it is not in English but is easy to follow for anyone else that might be interested.

Once you can the top lid off and the drawer for the detergent, on my machine I had to take remove 4 screws - 3 of those are behind the drawer and one on top of the machine (see pics). Also at the bottom of the machine, unhook the drain-pipe and unscrew the fluff filter. Undone the 3 bolts around...

if I remember correctly the whole front opens up like/similar to like in the video.. you need to take the top cover/lid off first, then there a few additional screws you have to take off, then the front swings open. Let me know if you can't work it out and I can look at my machine tomorrow and...

most of the cracks are hairline, or max 2mm wide. Could this be weather related, all the adverse weather that we have been having?. Over the last 2 to 3 years. The flat was been empty for quite lengthy periods at a time as I have been away having to go stay with my mum due to her health...

This was the closest one I found for a WT986 model, but very similar to the 945. Let me know how you get on if you decide to do it yourself. www.youtube.com/watch?v=wKgTxhpSADM
