    Have had this machine for 15 years now. Occasionally gets stuck on rinse to spin cycle, 2 lights flashing. I restart and will then work ok. It seems to have given up the ghost now. Won’t start and trips electric. I have started looking at new machines, what a minefield and nowhere near the quaity of my bosch, so I am starting to wonder if a repair is financially viable/ possible. Or has my trusty machine finally had its day?

    How far into the wash does it trip the electric ?

    As soon as I turn it on at machine; turning it on at mains is ok, but then press start button and rcd electric trips.

    It is possibly a simple repair using brushes and/or interlock.. Relitavely a cheap repair prospect.. I would get an engineer to look at it..

    Use the search feature at the top of the page to search for a local engineer

    Had local engineer come out – it is definitely the pump and it looks like the power tripping was due to overheating as I tried to start machine a few times. Waiting for quote for part and fitting now…Question is – is it worth the cost, at 15 years old? I think I will go for it, it is a solid machine and hopefully it’s got a few more years left in it. Thanks for help

    Re: Bosch wff2001 update. Mended but not working!

    Pump changed, works at 30degrees, but won’t even start a programme on 40 or above. Will give the guy another call, but is this likely to be the brushes or something more pricey?
