Sounds like the blockage is closer to the drum, Tilt the machine as far back as you can to access underneath. Make sure to have a basin and remove the pipe going from the drain pump to the tub and see if anything is obstructing the pipe or stuck in the tub, is usually a sock. Hope this helps.
Drum is not turning after replacing motor brushes
Hi, welcome to FixYa.
This is a common error on many Bosch washers. I've seen these motors have brushes replaced either necessarily or not (usually less than 5mm wear remaining they should be replaced) and come to find out the culprit is in fact the fuse in the motor...the windings are very unlikely in my opinion.
The thermal cutout is located within the motor, but unfortunately it is not re-settable. The only way to be sure it is faulty, is to check it for continuity with an ohmmeter. It could be a failed relay or printed circuit on the control board caused by the brushes wearing...but not likely, again in my opinion.
If you're up to it you can check the motor from the control board via an ohmmeter or multimeter. Here's how...
1) **Unplug the unit from the wall or turn of the power to the machine...safety first**
2) locate the pin connector on the control board as shown here...
3) at thee points on the connector, you should find ohm values shown here...
This will/should indicate if there is truly a fault at the motor or not, (pin 5-6 should have continuity if fuse is good) if not, the failure is within the PCB as I mentioned. Make sure you make good contact with the connector inside the harness to insure a good meter reading.
Please keep me posted as to what you find or if I can assist you in any manner going forward and I'll certainly help in any manner I can.
Thanks again for choosing FixYa. Good luck.

Fabric conditioner tray is not empyting despite
Hi from retired Englishman in SW France,
I hope you don't mind me saying so but often the softener dispensing siphon tube gets missed when cleaning the dispenser 'cos it's difficult to see!----------->
It will normally have some sort of cover over it which you must remove to expose the little stuck up pipe/tube. On some models there is just a small individual cap over the tube. The tube is down which the conditioner and water should siphon. It is likely to be blocked by 'gunge'- a mix of powder and conditioner. The whole of the tray, particularly this pipe and the bit which fits over it, must be completely clean and clear for it to operate correctly. It is worthwhile checking fairly regularly.
If this isn't the problem it could be that the water dispensing is not working correctly. It is easy to check by selecting (final?) rinse, pulling the drawer slightly out and seeing and hearing whether water is being fed into the softener tray. If is isn't then it is a call-out ;-0(
If this has assisted you please consider a 4 thumbs up for the rating.
Thanks and good luck!

What bolts need to come out the washer when
Hi from retired Englishman in SW France,
That information I would have expected to have found in the washer manual OR received from the supplier/vendor when it was delivered!
I remember from our Bosch that there were a couple of transport bolts easily visible when the top was removed.
Hope this helps ;-0)

Bosch - Precision
The 03 error code is the drain. Disconnect the drain hoses
and check for blockages. If no blockage "time" the drain interval. If
it's more than 6 minutes it's the pump. Also make sure you're using the
correct
type of soap so the ball check valve on the bottom of the outer drum
isn't
getting fouled with excessive suds. Also disconnect the drain hose from
your
house plumbing and let it free flow on it's own. This will tell you if
the
block is in your plumbing, and not in the machine. Assuming that your
filter is clean.

Machine full of clothes and soap suds, F12 appears
Hi from retired Englishman in SW France,
Sorry but I do not know your particular machine BUT I would suggest as a first step that you clean the drain motor lint tray/filter. So many 'faults' are caused by blocked filters. The motor is unable to drain all of the water in the allotted time.
If you are unsure where the filter is, it is often behind the front lower (kick) panel (or in some machines at the rear in an awkward position!) and held in by a round cover/knob.
REMOVE POWER AND ENSURE YOU HAVE A WATER RECEPTACLE/RAGS TO SOAK UP THE WATER WHICH IS BOUND TO POUR OUT!
It's surprising what people have found in theirs! It is always worthwhile checking it on a regular basis.
Now- whilst the filter is removed it is normally possible to see the drain motor and ensure it is not jammed by a foreign object such as a needle or a toothpick. It should be able to be turned by hand/finger- the power IS OFF!
At this point it is also possible to test if the motor works. No clothes or water in the machine, select a spin cycle and put the power back on. You should be able to see the motor turning at some point, possibly straight away. If it doesn't work then the motor is malfunctioning!
Hope the filter is the problem and good luck!

Cant remove the filter from
They can be quite stiff if not used often.
grip very firmly and turn ANTI clockwise.
If you cannot do it by hand use a spanner or grips to give you a little extra leverage but be careful not to over do it as you do not want to break plastic.
