Re: bosch logixx not draining
Spot on Dave. received new askoll pump body today and fited it. On first dry run with filter unscrewed I thought I still had a problem as all I could hear was a very quiet hum but closer inspection revealed the impellor spinning away but quiet as a mouse. I had got so used to the noise of a worn pump rattling away I had come to regard it as normal. many thanks for your help.
Re: Bosch Wfr3269gb repair man
Thanks, suddenly noticed link and felt v. stupid!
Booked engineer for Monday. I’ll be pretty desperate by then with 3 kids.Re: Can I do this? Bosch built in oven
OK, so I need to put it on a plinth. Does that need a vent grille in it? Then I would like to put a wooden work surface directly on top of the oven, but will that restrict the airflow too much? Does that need a vent grille?
Having never used a built in oven I don’t know how much it heats the things immediately around it and how much airflow it needs.
Thanks.Re: Can I do this? Bosch built in oven
I was wondering about exactly that layout. Do I have to have some plinth or could the oven go almost directly onto the (concrete) floor? I guess it can’t because of lack of ventilation, or the handle scraping the floor, but it would be the end of a run, so I could do side ventilation.
Re: Can I do this? Bosch built in oven
I guess I will go for the built in double oven in a proper cabinet as intended. Do the contents of surrounding units get hot? ie are the surrounding cupboards unsuitable for storing food?
ThanksRe: Cutlery basket in dishwasher Bosch SMS53L02GB
Thanks for the reply. I am still not sure about the cutlery basket design. I know some Bosch models have a basket with grooves in which can fit/slide anywhere in the bottom racking. Is it like that?
ThanksRe: Leaking Bosch SGS4002GB
I do not know this model but you may be able to say if experience with my own bosch is relevant.
I was fixing one problem and tilted the machine. It was “empty” but water probably from the drain pump sump ran past the door seals into the base as the seals are really only splash guards. The only effective way to dry the base I found was to keep it vertical, use a turkey baster and poke teatowels into spaces with long skewers, (power off of course).
It may just be your leak needs clearing less often if you keep it vertical, also I would worry about what electrical components get wet when you tilt the machine.
not a solution I know but it might make the problem a litttle more manageable till you can determine the cause and may prevent more serious damage.
good luck
Re: bosch SGS55942FF/07 not washing
Thanks, it is as daunting as I suspected.
Fortunately I could see the wash pump motor stator through a gap when the right hand panel was removed. It strained a milimetre when the wash cycle started confirming pump had jammed. Power off I reversed the stator a couple of turns with a screw driver and it has self cleared.
For the record it is clear in retrospect the jam was caused by stopping machine early in the cycle when rinse was dirty. Wife was not happy leaving machine to finish as we left for a few days. unlucky perhaps but then we could just as well have had an unattended flood or fire.Re: Creda T602CW dryer not heating
Bingo, never spotted that one. crumbly burnt thermostat removed and replacement ordered.
Sounds like a common problem, is usual failure mode genuine overheating, age, or hot contacts brought on by vibration?
I am inclined to fix the new thermostat and forget it as I cannot see easy access to check state of the connections short of dismantling dryer and removing drum.
Re: Where to find a Bosch WFR 3269
That would be great. The new Bosch models don’t have a child lock. Either model would do, but I’d probably slightly prefer the higher spin speed,
Thanks.Re: Replacing Bosch control card
I really appreciate the info.
Best option is an engineer to recode old board and problem solved, but life is rarely so easy!!
Any idea VERY approximately how much that recoding would cost.I was told in the past that engineer and NEW board is at least £200, which is not cost effective, but this recoding idea may could give my lovely old machine a reprieve.
Re: Replacing Bosch control card
Is anyone allowed to tell me how to decode it only.
Also if the engineer did the decode and recode for me is it likely to sort out a minor programme glitch, and a possible major one? The machine has 2 faults at the moment.
Re: Replacing Bosch control card
As I have nothing to loose by it, is there a way to decode and recode the control board we have already in the non working machine. This was suggested in principle on this forum many months ago, but no one seemed to know the sequence to actually do it and as the machine still functioned, though not fully, we did not follow up the idea then.
Any suggestions ?!
