Bosch Washer Symptoms and First Checks
- 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
- 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
