There’s this guy… pain-in-my-d***… I think he sells s/h appliances. So he’s always bringing me appliances to repair – and not wanting to spend any money on them. I’ve never asked where he gets them from, but I think I will with this Bosch WM.
“It’s dead!” He tells me. Sure is! Then when I took the top off I found an extra PCB wired into the main PCB…
I just moved the pressure switch for a better view.
Very dodgey wiring! Without even mentioning those two red wires just hanging there.
What the H is it? I can see a battery. Is it a tracker? That’s my first guess. What do you guys think?

Additional thought….
Red wires are an ariel? Maybe it’s an NSA washer :eeek:

Good thinking. Would explain why it’s dead. It doesn’t look abused…
I’m gonna ring this guy up and ask where he got it from

Wasnt there a board available on the net sometime back…if you were renting machines out and the customer never paid up, you could simply drive to their homes and using a keyfob type remote it would cut the power to the machine?
Then customer would gave to pay up or else!

IMO The small silver can looks like a crystal, so its got a frequency involved. definitely some form of receiver or emitter.

One could look around for rented washing machine business and ask them if they have lost a Bosch WM recently. The machine is likely to be owned by the rental firm. Are there any other markings on it? Is it security marked? Get a uv light and check it out.
If this guy regularly call you out to look at their machines and not wanting to pay, I would think twice doing the work.
