Possible Causes

Mower operating on slope beyond specification, Mower stuck on obstacle, Faulty tilt sensor calibration, Damaged chassis causing incorrect tilt reading

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn OFF the mower before repositioning.

  • Move mower to flat ground: Place it on a level area and restart. Many Bosch Indego models clear the tilt error once level.
  • Check lawn slopes: Ensure the mower is not used on slopes steeper than the maximum allowed in the manual.
  • Remove obstacles: Level out holes, fill ruts, and remove large roots or stones that can tip the mower.
  • If E012 appears even on flat ground: The internal tilt sensor module may be misaligned or defective and should be recalibrated or replaced by a technician.
