The first thing you should try is checking the power supply cord and making sure it is securely plugged into the wall outlet. If it is and the washer still won't turn on, then you should check the house circuit breaker to make sure the outlet the washer is plugged into has not tripped. If the breaker is not tripped, then you may need to check the wiring harness between the power supply and the main board, as this may be the source of the problem. If the wiring harness looks to be undamaged, then you may need to replace the main board.
put machine near an outside door let the empty hose lie outside that will drain the water out........then check the pump for a blockage ........
cheers
I suspect the solenoid on the water input connection has failed, this is the unit that allows water into the machine , if you know a bit open the lid and you should see this just inside behind the cold water connection.

A code E27 means a problem with the door lock. Try
unpluging the machine for an hour and see if it resets the lock.
If not remove the cover on the lower right
corner you will see a white plastic pull cord. Pull the cord and pull open the
door. If that doesn't reset the door lock you will need to replace the lock.
i keep getting E14 on my bosch on my washing machine sometimes it works and other times fills with water then E14 comes up could anyone please help me .......
Most likely this means you have a belt problem, or the brushes have worn out. If you are confident, UNPLUG the machine, and remove the back cover. It will be obvious if the belt has come off, and you may be able to re-instal the old one, or buy a new one. Worn motor brushes will be less obvious, but if you're reasonably confident with electronics, you could remove the motor, and inspect the brushes, or get someone else to.
I wouldn't. Not without a proper shelf for the washer. Washing machines are heavy because there's a huge lump of concrete placed over the drum to dampen down any vibrations. A tumble dryer is hollow, has little structural strength.Put the machine on top of the dryer, you're going to get a crushed dryer if not a crushed foot, leg or child. Please be very careful.
It is a common fault that the drain fails to work in most machines in a period of time and is the most problematic fault in a washing machine. In all occasions it is important that your observation is most important and so is vital to the identification /rectification and solution. If you have noticed that water has leaked then as the drain hose pump/valve and fittings are located on the underside of the machine it is important that you look for possible leaks here. In some cases the drain hose would be clogged at the drain end to outlet of the house and so there will be back flushing resulting in overflow to the outside. Also the drain pump/valve can be clogged. Now remove the drain hose clamps and remove the drain pump/valve, clean the drain pump/valve, use back flushing to clear off all dirt. Now test using power to see if this works and can be simulated. When refitting, the hose must be tightened properly. If the pump/valve does not work even with power then it must be replaced.If there is intermittent power to the drain valve/pump then the program controller unit is a suspect.
Finally the washer must be placed with a tilt- use a spirit level- so that all water will drain to the outlet port and thereby there is no residual water remaining.

THats a bit tricky determining which water valve it is...while the one way to be sure would be a process of elemenation the cold water valve is most likely going to be the one. A fairly easy way to determine which one is,is turn off just the hot water tap and cold water tap seperatly over the course of a couple days and see when either is off if it still has water in the drum...meaning if with the cold water faucet off does it still have water in the morning and vice versa for when hot faucet is off
so with the cold faucet off no water in tub from overnight its the cold water valve if no water in tub when hot is off its the hot
Keep the door shut but unplug the machine or flip the breaker off for the night. Replace the water valves if water is present the following morning. The machine control is malfunctioning if water is present only when the machine is plugged in and the door is kept shut. Get yourself used to leaving the door open when the machine is not in use or replace the expensive machine control.
Hi from retired Englishman in SW France,
If you are certain that it is a belt problem and not a motor one, you need to purchase a replacement belt (the same applies if it IS a motor problem- change the belt at the same time!)
Belts are not expensive- sorry I do not know how much yours would cost- and are easy to be changed by a competent person:-
REMOVE POWER FROM THE MACHINE AND REMOVE THE BACK.
The motor support bolts should be loosened and the old belt removed. Often putting the new belt on is a bit of a struggle, even with the motor 'loose', because it is new and smaller!
Once on it should be tensioned by pulling the motor against the belt firmly- but not over tight- and the motor support bolts tightened.
ON NO ACCOUNT SHOULD ANY FORM OF LEVERAGE BE USED TO TENSION THE BELT. THAT COULD LEAD TO DAMAGE TO THE BELT, MOTOR AND BEARINGS- EXPENSIVE!
If it turns out to be the motor, it is false economy to just have the brushes changed although financially very attractive. Experience of others is that the brushes may only last months unless, that is, the motor is totally refurbished at the same time. It depends on how old the motor is and how much wear the commutator has had. New motors are not cheap, though. Ours for a Bosch cost GBP250- but it's your choice!
If this has assisted you please consider a 4 thumbs up for the rating.
Thanks and good luck!
