Bosch wae24464gb/03 won't drain or spin - Bosch Washing Machines

A LD (Long Drain) error code means that (more or less), the drain pump is failing.

Hi wwwylie,

First check the Drain Pump filter, as the last 2 cycles of a machine is Drain & Spin, and if the Drain pump cannot drain the water, the filter may be clogged and the cycle won't progress to spin.

Please follow my below Tip on how to do this:

ACCESSING, DRAINING & CLEANING THE DRAIN PUMP FILTER...

Kind Regards

Disconnect the drain hoses and check for blockages. If no blockage "time" the drain interval. If it's more than 6 minutes it's the pump. Also make sure you're using the correct type of soap so the ball check valve on the bottom of the outer drum isn't getting fouled with excessive suds. Also disconnect the drain hose from your house plumbing and let it free flow on it's own. This will tell you if the blockage is in your plumbing and not in the machine.

hi there,

the 03 error message is the machine not sensing the water level. since you can drain using the pump manually, check the water level switch, as it may be faulty.

open the cover on the pump, lower left. Make sure machine is unplugged take your finger and fell inside the holethat goes toward the tub and see if there is a clog.
