Re: Bosch Maxx WFL226L
Yikes! That sounds a bit better, I will contact an engineer from the list.
Although to give the engineer who visited me his due, he was guessing at the likely cost, and offered to find out the exact price at the time. I declined as it was a bit close to Christmas and the washer is still working (albeit of a “fashion”).
Even then just wondering at the economics of getting a 7 year old machine repaired. After all with the CB cost including fitting will be around £150 (about 40{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} of it’s purchase price) Plus I have been looking around at other machines, and had got the idea that I was going to have a new one! :rolls:
Thanks for the advise though. If I did get a replacement, rather than scrap the unit, are there places that would recycle/re-furbish machines, as it’s not completely redundant?
Re: Bosch Maxx WFL226L
Hi
Had an engineer out to this blasted machine, and it needs a new circuit board, costing around £250. Machine now never finishes a cycle and even with an extra rinse and/or spin clothes are coming out very damp.
I guess I’ll need a new one! Unless anyone can get a CB for under £100!
Re: Bosch Maxx WFL226L
Hi once again
Just a thought before I call an engineer out. Greg mentioned that this problem could relate to water pressure, how I can I establish that this is the cause rather than another fault? As if it’s down to pressure, then that must be the domain of a plumber rather than a washing machine engineer?
Your thoughts on this would be welcome.
Cheers

Hi Greg
Many thanks for your prompt reply.
I have done as you suggested, and the filters were quite clean on each hose, and no obvious blockages, at either end of hoses. Also cleaned out the drain pump. Put it all back together, but unfortunately the next wash reproduced the same fault.I guess I’ll have to get someone out to check the valve solenoid, hope it’s not too pricey.
Thanks for your help
Fiona
