Top 20 Bosch Classixx WFC 2465 Front Load Washer Questions & Answers

Close the door and turn the dial to drain

unpluge it

change the door lock

To say this you need to be sure the valve is not faulty, you need to test if voltage is present at the valve and if yes fit a new valve, assuming of course that water supply is good.

Have you checked to see if it is wired correctly? Next, is there a run capasitor that goes to the moter, ir is it wired directly to the moter? If it has a capasitor, you might need to change that. Any time you replace a motor, you always replace the capasitor with it. Let me know what you find out and we can move forward from there.

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.

apply some heat carefully

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!

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.

Detergent drawer is clogged with soap. to remove look for small plastic clip on the inside above the detergent drawer which needs to be released. Remove detergent drawer unit and wash thoroughly under running water, or bucket. Replace and problem should be solved until it gets clogged again.

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)

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!

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.

could be a motor fault or a program fault

yes there must be behind the washing machine please rate my answer thank you : )

You have probably inadvertently activated the child lock. You can start a cycle still, but you will need to hold the start button for approx 5 secs. Check you user guide for deactivation instruction.
use link to get manual if needed

sounds like either a broken belt drive or burned out drive motor if you can hear the motor running then i would say its the belt

There is a thermal cutout in the motor, but unfortunately it is not resettable.
The only way to be sure if it is faulty, is to check it for continuity with a meter, if it is open circuit, it can be bypassed, but this then leaves the motor unprotected, but it will prove if the fault is in the motor, or elsewhere.
It could be a blown track on the control board caused by the brushes shorting, in addition, to an open circuit thermal cut-out.

the soap dispenser of my washing machine wont come out..I tried different ways but it doesnt work? is there a special way of doing this?
