Bosch Washer Lines and Features
What a Bosch Washer Technician Deals With
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
Models with i-DOS have a separate dosing pump that can clog and trigger its own error code, and Bosch lists cleaning that pump unit as the fix. Source: Bosch - Washer Error Codes
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 leaking. Bosch says to find where the water collects first: for a leak at the front, clean the door seal and door; for a leak at the detergent drawer, use less detergent or switch to fresh detergent. Source: Bosch - Why is my Bosch Washing Machine Leaking? How to Troubleshoot
Reading a Bosch Washer Error Code

| H9E | Hot water supply problem, such as a closed hot faucet, a kinked hot hose, low hot water pressure or clogged strainers. Source: Bosch - Washer Error Codes |
| E:38 / -25 / -26 | Drain pump is blocked; clean the drum first, then the drain pump if the code comes back. Source: Bosch - Washer Error Codes |

- 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
