How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the unit before accessing internal sensors.
- 1. Check operating position
- Ensure the carpet cleaner is used on a level floor and not excessively tilted or lifted during operation.
- 2. Locate tilt sensor
- Open the main body to find the tilt or orientation sensor (often a small cylindrical or rectangular component on a small PCB).
- Check that it is firmly mounted and not loose.
- 3. Inspect wiring
- Verify the connector from the tilt sensor to the main PCB is secure.
- Repair any damaged wires.
- 4. Replace sensor if needed
- If E15 persists and the sensor is suspected faulty, replace the tilt sensor module with a Bosch-approved part.
- 5. Control PCB
- If a new sensor does not resolve the issue, the control PCB may misinterpret the signal and should be replaced by a technician.
