The F21 error code indicates that you have a problem with the washing machine's motor.
Have it checked out by competent electrician.

F:16 - Doors are not properly closed. Check the doors are closed with no obstacles.

F:17 - Water is not running. Check the tap, hose and filters. Also water pressure can be low.

F:18 - Too much water remaining. Stop the drying program and start Spin program. Otherwise something is bolcking the water exit from the machine.

SOURCE: Bosch maxx classic washing machine doesn't clean clothes

There are a lot of things to consider when trying to solve this problem. Obviously a front loader washes differently than a top loader. Top loaders tend to using a washing motion that is good for stains but wear out your clothes fast. Front loaders typically use less water and wash more gently, but in some ways still do better than top loaders. Anyway, think about any other variables that go into the laundry equation. Consider the distance the machine is from your water heater. This machine will use MUCH less water to fill than your old one, and, you know how when you turn a faucet on hot it takes a minute for the hot water to actually get there? It's the same way with your machine. If there's a sink next your washer, you should always turn on the hot water on the faucet until it gets hot right before you start the machine. The same goes for dishwashers. If there's not a sink close you can easily turn up the temperature for all hot water on your water heater, although that will use more energy.
Consider what detergent you're using. If you're using high efficiency detergent (like Tide he) maybe you should switch to your old brand. If you're using your old brand of detergent, try getting a high efficiency detergent.

SOURCE: I have E3 error code on a Bosch washing machine

"E3" on a Bosch Maxx means the door is not closed properly. Either there something preventing it from closing properly (blockage) or there is a fault with the locking mechanism.

SOURCE: I have an error code

Hello there
Normally this is a drainage problem code
Unplug the machine and wait for 30 min
During this time Remove the cover on the front bottom right corner or the front cover at the bottom , use the small hose that is attached to the pump to drain the water, from the pump then unscrew the large drain cover and remove the blockage from the drain pump. and any additional hoses then reattach the hoses and then plug in after the 30 minutes is up then press the cancel button and test ...Test by pouring 1L water into section II in the top and setting the machine to 'drain'. it should beging to drain

Our bosh Maxx 7 varioperfect washing machine buttons are not working Amd showing f:21 error

F21 error on this model of Bosch washing machine pertains to a motor or a control board fault. This can be reset and to reset it turn the appliance knob to the off or reset position (12 o'clock), turn the knob to the 6 o'clock and then press and hold the spin button, then while holding that button turn the knob to 7 o'clock position, continue holding spin button for 15 seconds and then turn the knob to off. After a minute turn it back on, if the error code is still there then it means that the motor or brushes in the motor should be replaced, though it is always better to replace the motor assembly completely.

Our Bosch Maxx 7 skips spin cycle of the washing program. The remaining time jump from about 7 minutes to 2 minutes

Possible that the program controller unit has some errors and so it does work erratically. Check on all connections to the program controller unit, check for moisture on the unit. Also remove power for few hours and see if there is any change.click on : washing machine tips

F14 fault on Bosch Maxx 7 I have low water power, could this be the problem? Machine bleeped at me then stopped. I have turned my machine off, but the washing cycle had not finished.

Hello

A power glitch may cause this error. Try unplugging the Unit for two minutes to see if that fixes the error.

You may need to restart wash cycle.
