Re: Bosch WFT2800 error code 3 water supply issue
With the plug out and lid off you can check the resistances across each of the
valvea (hot and cold)
Some programs will use the cold valve only (ie low temps) so you can check if you get the error across high and low temp programs.Another thought…due to the cold snap is it possible you have any blocked feed pipes?
Re: Leaking Zanussi ZDI6895QX
Not familiar with this model but the holes in the top of the matrix are almost
certainly safety/overflow vents.you probably have a blockage which is preventing the water being recirculated.
Try and check the hose connections from the matrix to the sump
-also in your pic the bottom third of the matrix seems to be completely gunged up?Re: Bosch SGS53A02GB
If you open the door whilst running you can easily tell if there is plenty
of water being sprayed around?If not then you probably have a reduced flow due to pressure chamber and lower transfer pipe to the sump being blocked.
Is the machine heating up?
If not then this will be another reason why the programs are running longer.
To check this you need to know how to use a multimeter and check the resistance of the heating element.
Plenty of threads on this -use the search function and Bosch not heating…
Re: Bosch WAS32466GB
You may have been unlucky and damaged the motor and or pcb.
Did you check the motor with a meter re fuse/windings/brushes for continuity?
If you google the F43 then justanswer reports a reset sequence but I dont know if it works or not……
Re: Siemens SE65E330GB – Leaking Pump
This is a real swine of a job to do as you will need to drop the base to gain
access to remove the main circulation pump.You can see some diagrams here which will help
You will need to remove the front plate and release the door catches on either side -you will see four screws(corners)
You should be able to drop the base enough to perform the keyhole surgery -you will need a jubilee clip to re-seal the outlet to the heater assembly.
The leak will be from either the main seal into the sump for the pump
or from the front housing/impellor.I would recommend you remove the front pump housing anyway as
you may have corroded some of the motor parts (bearings)
Is there any evidence of brown stains on the tray below the motor?If so the pump wont have much life left I’m afraid
If its the former often removing and rotating the seal helps or some
ptfe tape etc if its the latter then you will need to strip the motor down and
either try and reseat the main o ring or buy a new seal kit (prob about £35)This is probably one of the most common faults imho with the Bosch/Siemens machines
-if the leak continues it will eventually lead to a complete pump failure and/or blown board.I have spent quite a few hours trying to fix a similar machine recently -one tip is to leak test the pump housing prior to re-installing.
Nothing worse then struggling for an hour or two and then seeing the swine still leaking………
If you decide to have a go then please remove the plug first off course!
Re: Bosch WF02064gb/01 noisy motor?
In most situations new brushes fitted correctly should repair the motor.
Unfortunately if the commutator/armature is damaged or overheats(when the brushes fail)
then the internal fuse can blow or you can damage the motor windings -then a new motor is required.(imho)There are plenty of sources for new,2nd hand or recon motors via the internet.
Part number for the motor is 141875
Re: Bosch WF02064gb/01 noisy motor?
You can pick up a motor for much less if indeed you have the worse case
scenario.You either need to take the motor out and take a look or get someone to
do it for you.If this is the first time you have had a motor problem then it is almost certainly down to the brushes
…..the latest machines are lucky to last 2-3 years before changing.A tenner to fix if you DIY and buy laminated quality brushes
You are lucky to have an older Bosch machine of sufficient build quality
and significant life expectancy.To get the build quality you have at the moment would require the purchase
of a more expensive model -to get 10 years probably towards a grand and
5 years about half that I guess…..(Miele/ISE/Siemens/Bosch etc)Re: SIEMENS E12-46 WITH F21 FAULT CODE HELP!!!
Firstly I dont know a specific cure but the Bosch machines are more less a lower cost version of the Siemens
A quick google gave me this info
http://www.justanswer.com/uk-appliance/ … bosch.html
Maybe one of the Bosch/Siemens engineers here will reply to your question to confirm the fault?
The above points to a control board fault as you will see -cold snap or otherwise I would be seeking a better explanation than the one received
from your service contact.
Hope this helpsRe: BOCSH SRS5612/08 drain pump
you can some idea of the layout of the machine from the Bosch site.
https://www.bosch-eshop.com/eshop/bosch … SHOPTYPE=A
you need to remove the bottom front plastic support and kick plate.
Then remove the metal shield behind -you will then see the pump
on the left side of the sump housing.It is bayonet mounted -its keyhole surgery but dooable…….
Hope this helps.
Plug out if you are going in…..
Re: Bosch Classixx Champion dishwasher SGS55E12GB/56 fault
First try and see if the machine will pump out.
Put a jug of of water into it and then power up and then reset it and see if it
activates the pump.If you hear it humming and no water out then likley duff pump or blockage.
-have you also checked the flap valve at about 11 oclock in the sump?
Sometimes you can clear a blockage by disconnecting the waste to the sump
at the matrix side and blowing back down(after pulling out the flap valve with pliers)Next step would then be to check the resistance of the pump to see if it has
failed electrically.Re: Siemens T1200A fault codes
Assuming the pump is good and the wiring is as it should be then….
I cant help you with the fault codes but I have seen control board damage
as a result of a burnt out motor.
Check the pcb and the tracks that go to the pump connector and see if there
is any sign of damage.
If you are handy with a soldering iron you may be lucky.Re: Bosch Machines
In my opinion yes -in order of age and starting around 1998
WFF>WFL>WFO>WAE
Arguably the older machines are better build quality but they are all
pretty good apart from some real rubbish WAA models.I avoid the machines with the small door handle as a rule of thumb.
Re: Is this Bosch washing machine ok?
Take a look here

Buy through quidco and you can get an extra 10{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d}
Nearly bought one myself……..even though I dont need one at the mo đŸ™‚
Re: Is this Bosch washing machine ok?
A good choice I think -a slightly older model is the WAE24165GB similar spec and
maybe a few pounds cheaper if you hunt around.
Buy online and through a cashback site like quidco and you should get under
your target budget.
Bosch have the 2 year guarantee and as long as you avoid the much poorer quality
WAA machines then the WAE24366GBwith its led readout would get my vote.Re: Hoover Nextra HNF6167-80
Just to update and close this thread.
Due to the cost of a new replacement around£80(not so bad compared to some btw) I decided to risk
replacing the possible faulty triac in the above picture using my trusty draper gas soldering pencil.I scavenged a triac from another hotpoint board and a few minutes later
eureka the machine lives!I still have no idea why the triac gave way as there is no evidence of leaks
to the drain motor from any of the soap tray or drum connections.My only thought is that water could possibly get from the soap tray if it was pulled out by mistake whilst filling?
anyway fingers crossed its fixed and its doesnt go pop again too soon!
