I have a WAS24460UC Bosch washer. It won't drain. The pump runs, sounds like it has an air pocket or like the pump is running backwards? I have had a F34 and an F18 erro code.

Sounds like there is a large clog in the pump filter causing it do jam. You may have to work at it to remove it, or you may have to disassemble the washer and extract the clog manually by opening up the drain lines and pulling it back from the filter.

Hi check the grey rubber seal around the door to the washer if there's a rip or tear if there is that would be the problem if not check pipes going to pump also water feed etc make sure all on and tight

Hi mwilczewsk,

I believe your drain pump filter is just clogged. The drain pump is trying to pump the water out before the Spin cycle, but can't. Usually this is caused by a foreign object that is obstructing the impeller. See my tip on how to access, drain & clean the Drain Pump Filter:

ACCESS, DRAIN & CLEAN THE DRAIN PUMP FILTER

After this, the Spin cycle will run, after the drainage procedure. If it does not, then you may need to replace the Drain Motor. Which is a easy task.

Kind Regards :-)

Are you using HE detergent? Are you using the correct amount specified? You have a year warranty friend. Call Bosch directly. They do care about their customers. Do not go through Lxxxs or who you purchased the unit from. Other than some minor issues, Bosch wants to take care of their customers. One other thing. My biggest issue with installers is, they don't know how to install. They have their CDLS, and that is all. No training. Did they remove shipping bolts? Tub rubbing on front door seal could be burnt rubber smell. Bosch people on the whole, are good people. Good luck. Numbers are in your Manual. Check installation manual also. Good luck.

it wont be a part it would have been left in someones pocket put it back together and it will be fine.

we have the same problem - did you find out what the problem was?

If you removed and cleaned the filter, then it is likely to be something stuck in the pump, or the pump itself is faulty.
Best way to access the pump is to tilt the washer backwards,, and get to it from underneath at the front..
Hope this helps.

The best wat to remove the pump, is to disconnect the washer completely from the water supply, remove the drain hose from the stand pipe, unplug the washer, and tilt the washer backwards.
remove the lower plastic panel if there is one, and access the pump from underneath at the front.
Hope this helps.

Ther could be possible drum suspension unit damage..
