You may have to replace the switch or (if so equipped) the magnet in the door. Most part sites on the web also have diagrams of the appliance that show how to get at the part you're trying to replace.

Why is F16 code flashing up on my bosch avantixx washer dryer

The door is not locked properly.
Open and close the door again and press the "start reload" button (play and pause button). If necessary, open the washing machine door, remove some of the cothing items and then push the door closed again. You can also try switching the washing machine off and on again, setting the programme and then starting the programme.

Door wont open on bosch classixx 6 1400 express washing machine

Hi,
The "F16" on a Bosch indicates the door is open / unlocked. If it's happening during a wash it would suggest either a faulty door lock, faulty wiring or worse, a faulty main control board. The wash program should halt when this comes up but you should be able to restart it when the door is closed. As the cost of a new door interlock isn't overly expensive. The best way to fix this problem is to purchase a new lock and fit it.
Thank you !

Dishwasher stops working

Not much info given, but normally if your power is not the problem and if the cable to the washer is not faulty, then i would try closing the door firmly. if no action, check door limit switch. if open circuit, it will not start. NOTE. Make sure plug is pulled out. Bridge 2 wires out on limit switch and switch on briefly. if there is an indication of water comming in switch off immidiately and replace switch.

Bosch washer error code e3 what does it mean?

Error "E3" on a Bosch front loader means there is a problem with the door. Either it is not closed properly (user error or a blockage) or the locking mechanism has a fault. Check to see that there is no object shoved in the latch hole (our 2yo just did that) preventing the door from closing properly. If it is not that, a technician is advised. I tried to get into the machine to fix out issue but could not get to where the issue is.

Won't turn on

My Bosch washer turns on when I turn the temperature selection dial. I assume you have tried this and waited for a few moments for the washer to gather itself and start.
