Bosch Washer Lines and Features
How Bosch Washers Are Built
The drain pump sits behind a service flap: water is drained off through a small hose first, then the pump cover is unscrewed and the pump impeller is checked to make sure it turns freely. Source: Bosch - Why Won't My Bosch Washing Machine Drain? How to Resolve
What Bosch Says to Check First
- Washer off balance. For an unbalanced-load code, Bosch says to mix large and small items and close the zippers and buttons on duvet and pillow covers. Source: Bosch - Washer Error Codes
- Washer not filling. Bosch has owners clean the filters at the water connection or AquaStop hose first, then test water pressure by timing the faucet's flow into a bucket. Source: Bosch - Water is not running into the washer
Reading a Bosch Washer Error Code

Keeping a Bosch Washer Running

- Cut back on detergent for lightly soiled loads, since too much detergent causes over-sudsing and can push water out of the dispenser drawer. Source: Bosch - Why is my Bosch Washing Machine Leaking? How to Troubleshoot
