WAW285H2UC

Bosch WAW285H2UC

Most common issues on this model

  1. AquaStop leak-protection trips, shown as E23
  2. Water-level sensor trouble, shown as E17
  3. Door lock trouble after periods of heavy use

The WAW285H2UC sits at the top of the line as an 800 Series washer, and its owners tend to be households that chose it for quiet. The EcoSilence Drive motor and AntiVibration design are why it hums instead of thumping on spin, and why the cabinet or wall next to it stays calm.

With heavy use, the motor is rarely what ages first. The 2.2 cu. ft. drum and its mechanical parts hold up, while the sensors and the door lock take the daily wear. A water-level sensor that drifts brings up E17, and a lock that gets sluggish after long stretches of back-to-back loads can leave the door stuck shut.

AquaStop deserves a mention too. It is a protective feature, so when E23 appears it is doing its job, and our first task is to find out what it detected. Home Connect lets you read the active code from your phone, and Speed Perfect is the fast-cycle option on the program list.

WAW285H2UCWAW285H2UC questions
Is the motor on this washer a common reason for a service call?

Rarely. The EcoSilence Drive motor is one of the sturdier parts of the machine, and most of our calls trace to sensors, drainage or the door lock. We confirm that before quoting anything.

What should I send you if I can read the code on my phone?

The code itself, plus when it first appeared and what the washer was doing. With Home Connect you can see the active error remotely, which lets us bring the likely parts to the visit.

Why would the door stay locked after a long run of laundry?

The lock mechanism heats up and wears with repeated cycles. If the door will not release a long while after the drum stops, do not force it, because that can break the latch. Call us instead.
