It is possible that the machine does not start off the cycle because there are errors due to feedback from the inputs. For the program to start up the main program controller must initiate the INLET/MOTOR/DRAIN pump/ valve to open up and allow each function to be driven starting from the flow of water into the drum as also the drain valve to open to exit the water at the point of the program cycle. If this does not happen then the voltage at the valve/motor/pump must be checked or the fault relates to no voltage from the controller. This means the controller is a suspect.

If the water flows then the flow should be good, if not the inlet valve is bad or there is dirt in the filter. Also check the flow at the inlet of the water line. Once the water comes into the system the WATER LEVEL SENSOR - normally a pressure switch- must activate at the preset/chosen level to give the signal to the program controller to switch on the motor. What is most important for the motor to start functioning is that the door switch must be ON when the door is shut or this will be an error for starting the motor for rinse and wash.

Check this link to replace the inlet valve:

http://www.espares.co.uk/advice/washing-machines/a/7/1408/how-to-replace-the-inlet-valve-on-a-washer-dr.html

Finally after the wash the drain valve will be activated, the water is allowed to come in to rinse and then finally the dry spin with the drain valve/pump activated so as to drain off all the water from the clothes during the spin.

Make sure that a fault in any of the cycle will relate to the specified action, so check the command from the program module and then the executing device be it the valve or motor or pump.

SOURCE: Ariston Front Loading Washing Machine error code F07

Error code F07 is indicating that the heater relay is stuck for one reason or another.
This could be a board problem, as this where the relay is located.
However, it would be worth checking that the heater is o/k before you do anything else., as this possibly could cause the relay to malfunction.
Plz rate my solution.
Thanks.

SOURCE: f 21 flashes

We have the exact same washing machine, and the same problem. we will need to lift the front of your washer up and undo the bolts to the front cover. you will see a white round turn nob, this is the filter unscrew it (you kight plug your nose) and empty all contents, replace, screw the front plate back on and you are good to go!

SOURCE: what is the error code f21 means on a bosh

F21 relates to a motor or control board fault.
However, it is also caused by spikes in the mains and can be spurious.

To reset it.
Turn the appliance knob to the off or reset position, 12 o'clock.
Turn the knob to the 6 o'clock position.
Press and hold the spin button.
Whilst holding it, turn the knob to the 7 o'clock position.
Continue holding the spin button for about 5 seconds.
Release the button.
Turn the knob to off.
When your turn it back on it should have cleared the error code.

bunged up theres a new word does that mean that you took off the pump and cleaned out the hoses as well as the pump yet the lights are still flashing on your unit please message me back with your answer and any further questions you may have thanks again Rick

p.s this also would mean you have cleaned the drain hose line that goes from the pump to the outside of the machine and tested the line to assure that water is flowing out of the drain line in a steady stream of water I await your reply Rick

F21 flashing on my bosch classixx 6 1200 express

F21 is a motor fault and in some cases can also involve a module fault. It could be as simple as the brushes need replacing or the drum has been severely out of balance.

Motor brushes replaced but fault F21 still indicated in the display panel. How do I get the machine to work ?

F21 means motor or control board fault. Usually its the motor. If you have replaced the brushes and it doesn't work then its most likely the motor is faulty. Not a cheap fix.

Bosh 1200 classixx does not finish the program, conditioner stays in the dispenser

check your filter. Could be an eratic pump. Dispening draw needs to be cleaned and make sure the small hole is clear to allow the conditioner to flow through
