What a Bosch Washer Technician Deals With
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
The AquaStop inlet hose contains an electric valve, so it must never be submerged, and its screen filter is cleaned at the faucet end of the hose. Source: Bosch - Water is not running into the washer
What Bosch Says to Check First
- 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
- Door won't lock / won't start. Bosch says to push the door shut until it clicks, clear any laundry caught between the door and the cabinet, and restart the cycle. Source: Bosch - Washer Error Codes
What Bosch Washer Codes Mean
| Code | What it means |
|---|---|
| E:30 / -10 | Fill problem, such as low water pressure, a closed faucet, clogged inlet filters, a kinked hose or a water level sensor fault. Source: Bosch - Washer Error Codes |
