If you have checked the hoses and screens then the most probable failure is the inlet water valve. I suspect that one of the electrical water valve solenoids has failed. If you using cold water try a warm or hot wash. If your using hot or warm try a cold wash. I am not sure on this washer if there is a mixing valve but may front loading washers have mixing valves that mix hot and cold water simply to help dissolve the HE type soaps. If changing wash temp makes no difference then a continuity check for inlet water valve coil resistance will have to be performed with an inexpensive ohm meter. If there is no continuity the solenoid has failed and the inlet water valve will have to be replaced.

This unit appears to have 2 inlet water valves one for hot and cold and one for just cold that is used for diluting soap. You will need to check all 3 solenoids for continuity. The inlet water valves are items 5 and 6 of this picture:

Washer wont let water in to wash

i don't know. most washers have a lid safety switch that must be indicating the door or lid is properly closed. please check this switch is working properly. i just used a volt meter on a top loader. the lid switch was damaged.
if no water coming in, check hot and cold water are turned on. if no water, shutoff taps and disconnect both hoses at washer and the taps.[ most hoses have a wire screen in hose that may be plugged ]. if all seems clear, reconnect tap hose ends. hold hoses into sink or pail and check each is running free by just turning on taps a small amount. if hoses are OK, it may be the electrical connection to the water solenoids. inspect to see if connections are secure. if all seems OK, it may be a plugged or faulty switch/tube that is indicating the empty machine is full of water.

Hy, I have a washmasine bosch WAE28267SN that sow me an error E02 that's the error. Somebody can help me with some tips Thanks

The E02 error means that the washer is slow to fill. This can be caused by a problem with the incoming water hoses, the water valves or the washer draining as it fills.

The first thing to check is the incoming water if you have very little water in the washer. Make sure that the shut-off valves have been opened fully. If they were fully open, close them. If they were closed, check if that solves your E02 problem. Next remove the water hoses. A damaged anti-flood hose can reduce the water flow to a trickle. Clean the filters at both the shut-off valves and the intake valve on the washer. Replace the hoses at the shut-off valves. With a bucket below the hoses, turn on the shut-off valves and check that you are getting good flow. Now, attach the hoses to the washer. Check if the washer fills properly.

Check that the drain hose is positioned so that the outlet is above the water line of the washer. If your E02 issue continues and no water gets into the machine, then the inlet valve could be stuck in the closed position. If the washer is filling and the E02 error persists, then the water flow sensor may be a problem. This sensor has air tubes that can become clogged. Make sure that they have no dirt. There are other parts in this sensor that could be damaged.

Unfortunately, I don't have a source for parts for this washer. Some Bosch water inlet valves are available here: http://www.appliancepartspros.com/bosch-washer-valve.html . If your washer is under warranty, contact Bosch.

I hope this helps.

Water tap closed? what does this mean

Water Inlet Flow Meter P/N 00602819 is failing.

For a Bosch Axxis Washer model WFR2460UC --

If both of the water supply valves are open, you cleaned the hose internal strainers, and there are no kinks in the hoses, part "Water Inlet Flow Meter P/N 00602819" is failing. This device measures exactly how much water enters the tub, no matter what the water pressure. Not hard to DIY replace with simple tools.

Check Water Tap??

remove the cold water hose from the washer look inside the parts of the washer you unscrewed it from, there is a plastic screen in there that needs to be clean out. you can pop it out with a small flat head screwdriver, clean it then pop it back in. also remove cold hose from valve on wall. there is another screen in there that needs to be cleaned. this will fix the problem
