Bosch Maxx 2260 washer won't drain or spin.

It turns while washing okay, but no matter what I set it on, it makes a vibrating noise and won't drain or spin. The light blinks off and on too.

Remove the front lower panel, screws underneath. Be prepared for water, drain out from drain hose. Check filter for clogging, clean out. Sometimes when the load is unbalanced & the machine cannot adjust the load it stops. To avoid this make sure your wash is mixed with big and small clothes.
If this does not work remove the rear panel & check belt, should have half inch ‘give’. Still not good, remove belt, unscrew 2 bolts that hold the motor, unplug the motor connector, lever the motor back with a screwdriver. Check the motor brushes (at terminal end of motor), if they are any shorter than 1 cm replace brushes.

Hey check to see if you can move the drum by hand,, if you cant the the bearings on the drum have gone and it is seized ..

If you can turn it by hand then most likely it is the carbon brushes on the motor..

hope this helps

The machine won't pump water or spin and makes nasty noise. When I turn the drum by hand there is no noise and feels normal.

Bosch maxx plus wfo 2260 will not spin it is working fine up until it is time for the spin cycle. Sometimes I have to stop the washer then just put it on to the spin cycle sometimes this works sometimes it...

Sounds like it is not rinsing properly.
If you have not already done so, then check the pump filter.
This is located at the bottom front right of basher behind drop down cover.
Unscrew anti-clockwise to remove and clean.

1. Too much vibration on spin cycle even on

loud rumbling noise when running, unplug it, take the rear cover off and remove the drive belt. Then turn the inner drum by hand. If there is a grating noise, the bearings will almost certainly need replacing.
drain port take out and give a very good clean with warm water and makes sure all the holes are cleaned right through
