What Makes Bosch Washer Repairs Different
New Bosch washers ship with transit bolts that protect the machine during shipping, and these must be removed before the machine is used. Source: Bosch - Washing machine transport lock
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 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
- 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
