Bosch washer/dryer not stopping after cycle ends

[cheesefather]

Hi, I have a Bosch washer/condensing dryer and it no longer stops at the end of a cycle - it continues to the next cycle along (e.g. after a woollens wash it starts the cottons prewash or after a cottons wash it starts drying). I assume the part that sends it the stop signal is bust (technical, I know!).

I'm happy to replace PCB parts etc. but need to know what I'm looking for and where please! The model is a Classixx Wash and Dry.

All the info I've found online relates to machines that stop working at some point in the cycle, but I have the opposite problem!

Thanks in advance for any help,

Misha.

Sounds like a PCB fault but beware Bosch PCB's are not cheap, also they need to be programmed to the correct model by a combination of option buttons and knob selections, this is not an easy job and most PCBs can only be programmed once..

Just check your appliance is draining ok and also heating on the wash cycle.

May be worth looking into a 'Fixed Price Repair' as it can work out cheaper than buying the part yourself and you normally get 3 months warrenty on the parts fitted..

Good Luck

Check out the spare parts on

http://www.bosch-home.co.uk/store/spareparts/search

Just search by E-Nr (Model) Number and you can view exploded diagrams and part number.. just becarefull you dont select the PCB housing instead of the PCB as you will only receive a plastic casing!
