Hope this helps.

So, I placed it on a spin cycle and the motor turned as expected. Then I placed it on a wash cycle, and yes the valves were energised, so problem fixed!!!Or, in the process of doing all this investigation have I fixed it by moving things ie loose connection
Posibly; possibly not. See below.

Essentially, I need to know if worn brushes will stop it from filling? Is this a known problem?Easy to find out. Pull a wire off one of the brushes and see if it still fills. If it doesn’t, put the wire back on and see what happens. Your questions are then answered.
andywash wrote:
Also, for me why doesn’t it fill because the brushes are worn. Is it because there is no point in filling if the motor can’t turn?If that’s the case possibly, or perhaps it’s designed not to fill if the processor picks up an open circuit on any of the components.
andywash wrote:
That leads me on to another question, why does it just sit there and not show a fault. Its not as if the motor will fix its own brushes 😀Theoretically it probably should. The problem with all these micro-controlled machines is that you never really know how they’re going to behave when there’s a fault. In the old days if a machine didn’t fill you checked the circuits to the valves , pressure system (and drain pump as it was often connected in series with the valves) . If they were ok it had to be the [mechanical] programmer. Now, like with cars, any fault can show all sorts of odd symptoms. You can’t rely on an error code display happening; if it does that’s helpful, but you may have to physically check all the components.

How about the ISE machines?
But how often did you change the bearings on Bosch washing machines anyway?

Possibly drain pump continuity; they rarely burn out but worth checking (ideally from the connector at the pcb ). Some of them are fitted with a toc in series with the winding to prevent burn-out when jammed.
To be on the safe side and to avoid mis-diagnosis it’s worth checking all the components.roly16

Check that the drain hose is routed higher than the water level in the drum.
