What Makes Bosch Washer Repairs Different
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
Common Bosch Washer Problems
- Washer shaking or making loud noise. Bosch says to redistribute the load, make sure the washer is level, and confirm it stands on a stable surface. Source: Bosch - Why is My Bosch Washing Machine Making Loud Noises?
- Washer not draining. Bosch starts with the hoses: clean the inlet hose filters, make sure the drain hose isn't kinked or blocked, then unplug the washer and clean the drain pump behind the service flap. Source: Bosch - Why Won't My Bosch Washing Machine Drain? How to Resolve
