    I have a Bosch Serie 8 machine and I’d like to know how to display the previous error code, which can be done by entering test mode.

    On my old Bosch Logixx, you turned the dial to position 8, before advancing one step to position 9 while holding the spin speed button.

    I understand that the process is similar for my current machine, but I have had no success. Perhaps the process is different now?

    Thanks for any help received in advance.

    Just bumping my thread in case somebody happens to know.

    I can confirm that the usual method that I used on my Logixx 8 also works on Bosch Serie 6 washing machines, but alas not on my Serie 8.

    Do you have a picture of the control panel?

    Sorry I can’t post the image straight into this post, but I am having problems with file sizes and trying to retain image quality. This is a link to an image of the control panel: https://i.ibb.co/fd8gTSp/MCSA02263902-WAW325-H0-GB-PGA1-def-1.jpg – hopefully that link works.

    Here is a link to the actual machine if the above link doesn’t work – it’s where I got the image of the control panel: https://www.bosch-home.co.uk/product-list/washers-dryers/washing-machines/front-load-washing-machines/WAW325H0GB

    I appreciate your help.

    They’re protective about it because in test mode the components can be powered up and they’ll ignore the safety settings…for example you could put a bag of sugar in the drum and on the motor test the 3G sensor for off balance detection would be ignored

    I simply want to know how to display error codes, if any are available.

    From use of the engineer mode on my Logixx 8, I can confirm that I am fully aware that safety features are ignored and/or bypassed – for example when doing a motor test, the out of balance (OOB) sensor is ignored.

    Bosch weren’t as protective as you might like to think, but things seem to have changed now. I still have the page that Bosch customer service sent to me, which I assume was a printout from the service manual. This was in around 2010, so I suspect they have perhaps tightened up giving customers this sort of information – which I do agree with to an extent, as it could be dangerous if used incorrectly.

    It does seem a shame that nobody either knows or wants to give me the information I need.

    sorry as i said i dont know either and manage to repair lots of them without their info

    which leads me back to my previous question
    you must have a problem with the machine that leads you into wanting the service info. If you tell us the problem we may be able to help

    looks like its may be board programming error
