Possible Causes
Severely unbalanced laundry load, Worn shock absorbers, Faulty imbalance sensor (if fitted), Drum suspension issues
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Keep the washer unplugged while inspecting internal components.
- Redistribute load: Open the door, redistribute laundry evenly, remove heavy single items (e.g., one large bath mat), and run a spin-only cycle.
- Check leveling: Ensure the washer is level front-to-back and side-to-side. Adjust feet as needed.
- Inspect shocks: Remove the rear or front panel and inspect the shock absorbers for oil leakage or looseness. Replace worn Bosch shock absorbers in pairs.
- Test spin: After mechanical checks, run a high-speed spin to confirm the error is cleared.
