We Have a Bosch WAE24162UK/01 Washing Machine. By turning the programme dial to any position. The five led speed spin lights top, middle and bottom light flashes simultaneously. And the motor has had a new set of brushes and works perfectly on a bench test. Any idea on what the problem might be?Many thanks

Hi Dave Thanks for reply
They were very worn and the commentator was very blackened which I have cleared up and seems to be working fine. This doesn’t seem to be the problem.

- Close the machine’s door and turn the program dial to position 0 (Off) – normally at the 12 o’clock position.
- Turn the program dial to position 8, which should be at the 6 o’clock position.
- When you see the Start LED flashing, push and hold the spin speed selector button and turn the program dial one click to position 9.
- Let go of the spin speed selector button and the machine should now enter test mode and show you the last error number.
By entering test mode, this should be enough to clear and reset the previous error and allow the machine to operation normally once again.
On some Bosch machines, I press and hold the spin speed button as soon as the timer shows the time of the program at position 8. It will just be a case of trial and error. Each time you don’t manage to enter test mode, turn the program dial to position 0 (Off) for a few seconds before trying again.
If you wish use the motor test feature of the test mode, turn the program dial to position 3 and press Start. This should quickly (but not rapidly) ramp the machine up to the maximum spin speed for that particular model (1,200 rpm for your machine).
Hi Bammec
Thanks for the Reply but the Problem is we can’t do the reset code. Because as soon as you turn the programme knob to what ever position. The 3 led lights on the Set of five, Top, Middle and Bottom Light flash simultaneously. So the start button will not light up.Any Ideas Thanks?

As electrofix states, ignore the lights. But perhaps allow a second or two between steps 2 and 3.
So turn the dial to position 8, wait a second, push and hold the spin speed selector button, turn the dial to position 9, then let go of the spin speed selector button.
If the second delay fails a few times, then try 1.5 seconds a few more times before trying a 2 second delay.. It just takes practice.
Ignore my previous post about the motor test sequence – I suspect it doesn’t apply to these new models now and that there is another position to use for this which I don’t know about. Somebody more knowledgable can probably advise you soon.
Here is a YouTube video I found which happens to be the same model as your machine – that’s when I realised I’ve probably inadvertently given you the wrong information. Sorry for this.

Hi
Thanks for your help, We done the reset procedure has we done before. With the delays etc, Not expecting it to work but low and behold the machine reset. (After doing the same procedure a numerous of times). Only difference this time was we forgot to shut the door.!!! Don’t know if this made the difference.
But thanks to all.
