Hi,we got a couple of bosch washers enr.WFO2465GB/01.these have the small digital countdown window.These machines both countdown from 6 mins straight down to 1 minute and so do not do a final spin.They wash heat up and empty no probs.Any help greatly received..
thanks..cooky….
Re: Bosch countdown…
You must remember that the SPIN ONLY cycle is there for HAND WASHED items only therefore it only spins at 800rpm for a minute or so then goes to zero. It will not do a long fast spin on that setting.
However, on a main ‘cottons’ wash it should do a full spin, if not then there’s an issue with the motor…..HTH?

Hello, can anyone help with this one, the machine runs through the whole wash. The wash time indicator counts down to 7mins remaining then skips to 1 min remaining without picking up into high speed spin.
I was originally called out because the machine did not spin and still had water in the drum when I tried to drain the machine the pump was not working, so replaced the pump.
However the next wash the machine again did not spin but this time it had drained completely but did as above.
I assumed the module may be faulty so sent it to QER to test but they say no fault found (that said when I spoke to them before hand they had not tested/repaired this particular module before). So I am still not 100{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} sure if the board is faulty or not and a new one from Bosch is 106 quid (a bit of an expensive guess!!)
Please help.

Hi
May be carbon track over on motor and/or low brushes; worth a try first
Have had two in the past, one was module, other was motorGreg

I remember a similiar fault on it’s Siemens sister washing machine. The motor was faulty even though it washed ok etc. If the brushes are ok it’s the motor.nelson

Thanks Gegsy & Micky,
I checked the brushes the first time I called out and they were ok. I think I’ll see if I have a motor in the work shop that I can plug in and try before I order a new module.
Thanks again.Martin

Another thing you could try Nelson is to strip the motor, give the whole unit a darn good flush out with WD40 to clear away all the carbon dust (as Greg mentioned ). Clean up the commutator with a bedding stick and try it again? If that fails and you reckon the Module checks out OK? Then the motor is a duff’unHTH?

Thanks again Martin, Stripped the motor down, dowsed it in WD40 gave my comm stick a bit of welly and hey presto motor back from the dead. Very happy customerRe: Bosch countdown…
The one above takes me to a login page as well. 😕
Weird that, can anyone view that thread from THIS link?I copied the hyperlink from the address bar at the top of the screen BTW.

Re: Bosch countdown…
That is weird. Iadom’s link works for me but not Nelson’s. I tried several things. I copied and pasted the link into a new tab and shortened it to the home page address and it still treated me as if I was logged out. 😕
UKWG addict? Who, me?

Your link though Nelson should stop before the words BOSCH&SID, so god only knows what all those letters and numbers are that are stuck on the end?
You’ll have to tell us how you got that ‘link’ up in the first place, suspect you must be doing something wrong? Who’s SID anyway? 😛

Wasn’t Sid the guy that everyone had to tell about British Gas 😀
As far as my link I just copied and pasted the contents of the address bar, right or wrong I am not sure, but it is the way I have always done it, but I stand to be corrected as I am no puta expert :con:
