Bosch front loader Nexxt series wfmc3200uc will not rotate when the cycle starts. Just sits there and the time cycle time counts down. Have cleaned out the hoses and drained the water. The pump starts but that all. Also have had lock problems and had to take the lock apart to fix so the door will shut.

    Thanks. Can the carbon brush kit be purchased at an appliance parts store and repaired by user?

    Yes in some cases the parts are sold as Half motor and the motor requires to be Split in order to fit quite hard if you have never done this before, you may want to look up a utube.com video on how to fit new carbon brushes on a Bosch....Good luck

My bosch nexxt washer model wfmc3200uc/01 vibrates excessivelyrics and moves across the floor on spin. I have balanced and tried everything. Any advice on parts that can be replaced or where to start

This probably aint it, but my front loader did that, and it turned out to be a bracket that they install for transport. It connects to the tub and keeps it from bouncing while in transport. If it is connected, remove it and try it then.

Bosch Nexxt 100 series front load washer

You first of all need to check the pump filter.
This should be located at the botom front right of washer.
Look for a drop down flap or cover, once located, unscrew filter anti-clockwise to remove and clean.

The pump itself is directly behind the filter housing, check there is nothing stuck in the housing.
This should solve the prob.
Please leave feedback for my solution.
Thankyou.

BOSCH washer, the door won't unlock and is reading E:04

I used a thin screw to release the lock through the access hole and this released it after rotating the round panel a bit. The manual release on my Bosch is a nylon deal that hangs down from the top. Just pull down lightly and open door. You may have to reach up past the drain to get a hold of the nylon string. The access opening is fairly sharp.

Bosch WFMC3200UC

I'm having a hard time understanding what is happening with my Bosch. Mine is filling and then immediately emptying out. Then the door unlocks but the timer indicates 45 minutes left (or so) and the door lock light is still on. Usually the only cycle that spins now is the spin cycle, but this doesn't help me get the soap out of the clothes still in the drum.

When the machine fills but doesn't rotate, the water level seems low as well. I had a repair man out who thought it might be the door latch sensor needing replacing (honestly, my toddler was pushing that button repeatedly), but I don't think that's it.

What does work: I unplug it for a while. Then if I'm lucky and the laundry Gods are shining down on me, I can wash normally (usually I'm luckier on Permanent Press but I always used to use the Cotton side). However, once I turn the machine "off," that's it all the problems persist so I have to wash it all, one load after another.

Front Door Seal

Call the Customer Service number located in your manual. Discribe to them what you have said here and they will send one to you for FREE! This is a problem that should NOT happen.
Moving forward, once you get it spray it down with Lysol Mold and Mildew Prevention and let it dry a couple of days before you install it.
