Problems with washing machine cycles

I currently have a Bosch WFF200L washing machine. It does a main wash however does not proceed to the next cycle and continues to carry on with the main wash procedure. Any advice? Many thanks, Peter Lee

The heater element may have gone and the wash continues waiting for it to heat up and satisfy the thermostats b4 advancing.

this solution is the most likely.the element should be at the back.isolate the power supply, you will need to remove back plate then undo wires to the element. it will be held in by a nut poss 10mm. the nut does up and pull a rubber bank from the inside of the tub to create a tight seal, once the nut is loosened you may be able to ease the element out over the compressed rubber bank, it may be tight and need some work. replacement is reverse but make sure the element is pushed fully home and located inside the tub.( get a torch and look inside you may see a locator lug for the end of the element.
if in any doubt get someone in, it isnt a big job if you have it all prepared for the engineer, and sorry i dont know how much an element would be poss20 to 50 quid.

Replace doorlock and mainboard.
If all five spin cycle buttons flash, its a fatal error.
It depens on which wash button that ligths up.
One of them is doorlock error, the other is main board error

BOSCH AXXIs - My wash cycle never progresses to rinse and drain.. just stays on wash forever!

It seems that the main controller could be the culprit but this requires you to counter check and confirm the fault before you can proceed to replace. It will be best to check all the connections and reset the pins and connectors. If the cycle goes through well in many modes it is adviceable to use as much by alternating the cycles than to replace the controller if you can manage..

Fills with water then does not rotate, also does not spin

Check for large items of clothes being tangled if the Bosch washing machine doesn't spin. The weight could not be evenly distributed in the drum and the spin cycle will have been disabled to prevent damage to the clothes..

Load the drum with large and small clothes together and run the entire washing cycle and spin cycle again.

Add more powder and run the entire washing and spin cycle again if you haven't found tangled large items, but the spin cycle still failed. This indicates the amount of cloths was too small.

Add 1 tablespoon of fabric softener to 1 pint of water and pour it into the main detergent dispenser if there's no tangling and the load was a normal size. The cause would have been excessive suds because of too much, or the wrong kind, of detergent. Use HE (High Efficiency) detergent in Bosch washing machines.

Hard scratchy towels. Have used all wash cycles, and use fabric softener

have you tried just white vinegar as your rinse aid. Do a full cycle of your washing machine using white vinegar instead of detergent, to clean any residue from pipes, and then in the next wash try white vinegar as your rinse aid.

After disconnecting the mains open up behind, it could be a shock absorber (damper) which is broken.

Zanussi ZWD1680W Front Load All-in-One... Problem:

With the symptoms you describe i would suspect a intermittent heater element fault as you are getting earth leakage current which is tripping the whole supply rather than a current overload which would just trip the socket circuit breaker. Get the heating element checked over first as this is the most likely cause.
