Re: Bosch WAE28363GB/06 FD8802602326 F:21

😕 I know this is not a solution.
I had one of these and gave up after several attempts to reset. I assumed that a board would be required.
Subsequently A “Bosch Engineer” was called and in a few minutes had the machine working. No parts were fitted and the customer says he just turned the knob a bit (not sure exactly how) and hey presto the machine worked fine. This has been several months ago and the machine is still going fine. From this I take it that no other faults were present.
I wonder is there another procedure for resetting these machines!

Re: Beko DRVS62W tumble drier

thanks Allsorts for your quick reply. I had noticed this suggestion on another ukw posting & have tried doing so but it has not cleared the fault. Maybe I need to give it a bit of a scrubbing with a plastic brush along with the alcohol; I just used a cloth soaked in IPA.

Re: Beko DRVS62W tumble drier

I’ve been looking at one of these.
The customer complaint is that what used to take two hours to dry a load now takes about 3 & a half hours.
I noticed that the current drawn was not at all constant; motoring only about 0.5A after reversal; ijumping to 2.5A shortly after resuming rotation and running for short timeat this level, before another jump to 6.8A until the next reversal of direction.
The appliance rating plate states 2000watts. The dryer is not achieving this at any stage.
This is the first of these I’ve seen so I’me asking / hoping for help from someone with experience of these.
Many thanks in advance,
tom

Re: Dyson handheld vacume cleaner

🙁 I’ve had the opportunity to try one of these and while its appearance is impressive the performance was not. Really disappointing when the price is considered.

Re: Bosch WF02467GB intermittent spin and drain problem

On two occasions I’ve got a 5 p coin that had got as far as the pump outlet pipe / mouth of the drain hose. So the pump was fine & pumping but no water coming out. It seemed to swivel now and again to add to the symptoms.
Worth considering.

Alternative to blowing with airline is to strip the motor to pieces and brush out the carbon with a paint brush although this is also messy. I have found that either process gives a huge improvement in insulation test result.

Re: bosch wae24162gb/03 motor issues – any1 else had same pr

I see a lot of these machines with worn brushes and there seems to be a strong correlation between work load and life of brushes. Certainly customers do seem to keep on using machine when they are aware of unusual sounds and performance leading to damage on the commutator as mentioned.
On most instances a good clean of the commutator and new genuine brushes has worked. Sadly not always as the motor has failed or does so shortly afterwards. This seems to be more common with bosch motors.
Its a pity more brushes were not fitted with the auto cut off feature found on miele washers and some numatic vacuums.
I find that giving brush type motors a good blow out with an airline makes for a better insulation test result. Has to be done outside of course. Working on something to contain the carbon dust cloud created.

Re: New 2010 Bosch range info.

Just a comment
Good news on washer tubs but rarely find bearing problems with Bosch washers.
Recently I’ve seen a number of all SS cavity Bosch dishwashers suffering from pinholes in the base. Not yet seen in other brands. So looks like the plastic base has something going for it although usually found on the budget models which will have other frill missing no doubt.

Re: zanussi zwf12070w

Hi
❓ I’ve got one of theses Zanussi zwf12070w where drain pump runs on all cycles nothing else. The problem has happened twice several weeks apart & seemed to happen at the end of the wash stage.
The first time it just came ok without doing anything in particular.
I’ve tried the diagnostic procedure and got the start/pause button flashing with — one green flash followed by 3 red flashes. this sequence then repeats indefinitely. I’ve searched the forums without success for how to interpret this indication.
Any help will be much appreciated as I’ve sold a number of these machines.
Thankyou in advance.
p.s.
I’ve replaced the pressure switch & am waiting to see how it goes.
On a quick test every thing seems normal
Apologies for longwinded post.

Re: Bosch sgs43E02gb/35

Hi keithwilliams.
Many hanks for your posting and suggestion. I will speak to Bosch spares tomorrow.
I do order spares from them regularly so nothing to loose by asking. Failing that I’m thinking of a new wiring harness.
