How do we do this? there is no spin button and having to restart the entire cycle is awful. thanks.
Had a repair man here for the same issue. Learned two things:
1. Too much detergent causes 'soap lock.' The electronics will get confused when there's too many suds left after a rinse and shut the spin cycle down. That's why re-running the entire cycle without more detergent solves the problem. Use less detergent.
2. There is a way to manually get the spin cycle to run using diagnostics codes. Here's what my guy did:
a. Washer selection knob in OFF position.
b. Hold the 'Spin Selection' and 'Delay Start' buttons down at the same time.
c. While holding those two buttons, turn the Washing selector knob to Permanent Press-Cold.
d. Keep the buttons held down until the LCD control panel reads 'P:01'
d. Release buttons.
e. Use the 'Spin Selection' button to cycle thru the codes. Stop when it reads 'P:04' which is the spin cycle.
f. Press 'Start/Pause' button to begin the spin cycle.
I don't know what the other codes do but this should save you from having to run the entire wash cycle.
Hope that helps! Tim
Thank you Thank you Thank you !!!!!!!!!! Works exactly like you said.

What if there is no delay start button?

For the 800 series, you turn the dial to "Rinse/Spin." The "Extra Rinse" will display "+1" as if you selected an extra rinse cycle. Pressing "Extra Rinse" now will remove the "+1" and the time will reduce from 22 to 13 minutes. You will also see a swirl about the spin indicator. The machine will now spin only when you press start.

My Bosch 500 plus series washer is 2 weeks old. From day #1 I have had a problem with it spinning every 3 loads. I hate the thought of going through the entire cycle to try spinning again. It is frustrating and a very sad situation especially because of the high end price we paid for this lemon! Please help. I have a repairman coming out soon. Will post what he finds. Thanks all!
I have read the posted instructions but I have a Bosch 300 and there is no delay start button. Is there another way to spin only?
