Looks like you have a leak. First of all disconnect and tip the machine forward to get rid of water in the base.Get it as dry as you can before you start the detective work. Then the only way to find it is to take to top and side panels off andwatch it run a cycle. The common leak...

congrats on fixing your machine I am in dire need of some motor parts If you still have your old motor can you get in touch? Thanks chris

Pumps can get noisy and the impellor can rattle -normally they fail. They are a low cost replacement and easily fitted (bayonet twist lock on the drain pump housing) A genuine Askoll twist bayonet replacement can be got a for a few pounds on Ebay for example....... If you advise model...

You could have a coin or clip trapped in the sump. You can clear this by draining the machine via the drain pump filter or by pass tube,tilting the machine (lean against cabinets) and then removing the clips (pliers/vice grips) from the sump(bottom of drum) and connection to drain pump...

As an update I helped the defrost with a hair dryer and also thoroughly cleaned the inside cabinets with warm soapy water. This morning I lay the machine on its back for about half an hour and then left upright for a couple of hours. I also decided to give the rear valve a bit of a...

Thanks for the reply. Found another thread on the web which suggested the divertor valve from the compressor to Fridge and Freezer stuck or blockage on the pipework If the full defrost doesnt recover it may have to call an engineer in ...eek Also been suggested that it is unlikely to be...

Hi Just noticed this morning that our Bosch F/F normally set at -20'c was drifting below -10'c and this afternoon the alarm told me it was below -5'C I also noticed some clear ice build up on couple of the baskets and inside door but put this down to kids not closing properly etc...

Hi Just acquired this machine with a reported leak problem. On power up I can only select language and then the screen flashes "not started" continuously. The top display is also rather dim and difficult to make out. I have checked all connections to display panel and also the main...

Thanks Mike..........thats made my mind up........motor out and down the dump. Build quality of these particular Bosch machines is frankly awful.

Thanks for the link but I still cant seem to find details for the specific model. Folk seem to sell the tub seal and shaft seal but no bearing kit... wtf? Is there a specific bearing kit available....anyone?

I have recently replaced the main control board on the above Bosch and run a couple of loads the last few days. First couple were fine and I thought job done! Guess I have been a bit unlucky though as the bearings seem to have collapsed during a wash today (lump of plastic through to the...

Can you hear the drain pump running when you reset the machine? Pump failure is a common fault but sometimes even if you hear the pump the impellor will be loose and then the pump is very weak. If you get a reassured flick every quarter turn when you use your finger to push the impellor...

a low cost solution would be Ebay or somwhere like www.casaparts.co.uk Again model code WXXXXXXGB and FD number will be required. Found on inside door rim and rear plate usually. You should be able to buy just the glass as the part numbers are listed on the Bosch support site. Approx £20...

Try contacting the support site...It worked for me when I had problems sourcing a manual last year and not available for download. They sent me a hard copy FOC which was excellent service imho http://www.bosch-home.co.uk/quick-links/customer-service/product-advice-form.html

The circulation motor is a favorite spot for leaks between seal/sump, seal/motor and impellor housing.This will often show as corrosion on the housing and leaks into the base. If none of the above is present then it is likely an impellor jam. You will need to drop the base slightly to get...

If you remove the side panels and there is definately no water in the base then you need to check the flood switch -it may be stuck The alternative is likely faulty pcb.......... Sent pm re another link.

post model number and fd number and we may be able to help more. on door rim or rear plate usually unless a non german model?

I have had a go recently using bare brushes,wet n dry and a soldering iron. I have changed brushes many times on washing machines but the time and effort I have put in on two Dyson motors (DC04/07/14) has to put it bluntly been a challenge and probably a waste of time. Run for a short time...

The 1min on the display is a Bosch error state and could be a number of things. If you are sure the machine is heating then it is likely a weak drain pump or blockage resulting in a timeout during a rinse cycle This could be variable due to volume of water in drum depending on specific program...

Have sent you a pm I am sure the polystyrene float switch is being activated by water leaking into the base....
