Hello.
We inherited this oven when we moved in about 18 months ago. It was installed new about 6 years ago. It is one of Bosch’s top of the range series 8 models.
Prouduct: https://www.bosch-home.co.uk/product…ens/HBG674BS1BAfter having the fan oven on (at 160) for about 5 mins it flashes E6100 error and beeps. The fan at the back of the oven stops turning. After that all I can do is turn it off – it will not continue cooking.
Googling it seems that replacing the fan motor is the fix. This I duly did (£90 part), but I get exactly the same error. The fan motor I replaced, although a bit grubby, was spinning smoothely.
I found a fault codes PDF on the web (see the answers here: https://www.justanswer.com/australia…ays-e6100.html).
It says after replacing the fan to replace the control board… Another £125…Before I do that, does anyone know how to get into the self test / service menu so I can get a bit more info.?
Do you have any tips on how to troubleshoot the fault?
BTW, we have 2 of these ovens in the kitchen; the other one is fine.
Thankssounds like it may be overheating
have you checked if the cooling fan is running ? this is inside the top of the oven and not the one inside the oven
Bosch part no 12004794. if its not dont assume is a faulty motor till you have checked

OK. This is what I do: select 4D (fan oven), default is 160 C, start. After a few minutes (3-5) it beeps the error. It has got nowhere near up to temperature (there is an indicator line on the display). The top fan did not run.
To cancel the error I pressed the off button so the unit stops. After a few seconds it flashes up the message “unit cooling down” and the top fan briefly runs for about 5 seconds or so. After that the unit goes off.
It therefore seems to me that the top fan is functional and something else is going on. Does this help?
