Thank you. Thank you. Another machine saved from the landfill here. following your guide to clean and restore a Bosch Aquastar 6.0L. Cleaning the gunk out of the matrix was the hardest part. 4h work.
Yeah I have left them soaking for hours at a time before rinse and repeating until clean
At least it did its job after 10 minutes of filling. Newer Models count the water rushing in using a tiny wheel and a reed contact. If the thoughput is too low you get a penalty in form of a tap symbol flashing and the machine stops. I can understand the enginnering standpoint but if the whole cycle takes a little longer who cares? Of course its better when its fixed. Good work!
My 20 year old Bosch Exxcel dishwasher would run but not fill up on the rinse cycle, I had to manually put 2 litres of water in for it to start the rinsing. Followed your vid and YEA its all working great again probably better than ever. Best vid on CZcams really great thank you so much.
Thanks to your tutorial my washing machine is working again! Thank you so much!
just seen this. cant thank you enough. saved me minimum£200 for callout for Bosch engineer or £350 for a new machine.
I got the same problem to my Bosch dishwasher and I am really thankful to this engineer for taking so much patience to show us how to clean the machine ever so grateful to you friend
Massive thank you for this video, just followed your video and fixed mine. I’m sat on the floor with the side off watching it work checking for any issues.
I about to buy a new dishwasher when making a search found this video which really helped
Many thanks
Took a bit of searching but exactly what I was looking for - thanks! Now back in action, less gunky and hopefully water tight on the dirty o-rings
Thanks for posting this video - the entire top left corner of the water matrix in my Bosch dishwasher and the float chamber were entirely clogged with gunk, so taking it apart to clean was the only option. I needed to leave undiluted bleach in the matrix for 24 hours to dissolve all the material, but it worked. Just keep flushing it and shaking it vigorously once the bleach has penetrated the areas with the worst build up.
Where did you pour in the bleach and how did you get it into the labyrinth at the top left that zig zags up and down. In mine I've seen liquid run from the far left pipe up into it. But getting it done the obstacle course but it's really hard
@@mrcneale I took the whole thing out of the machine (like in the video) and then turned it upside down. Then when it is upside down, you pour the bleach in the hole that is directly above the corner where the float chamber is (ie. the hole that is directly below the float chamber when installed in the machine) and it was not too hard to manoeuvre the liquid where you need it to sit.
Thanks for a very informative video. This is very similar to my Integrated Siemens dishwasher the only thing I found different was I had to reset the programme to get it to work.
One more unit saved from the landfill! Thank you! :)
Very helpful, thanks for creating and posting this video! It all works again and thus extending the life of my 20 year old dishwasher.
Thanks, exactly what I needed to see.👌👍🏻
Excellently done, chap!
Have exactly the same issue with our 2006 Neff!
Thanks for this excellent video , you have helped save our aging machine, hoefully we'll get a few more years out of it yet:)
Highly informative. I look forward to using this video as a guide should my machine need repair in future.
Mate, you saved me quite a pretty penny, thanks for the beautifully informative video 👍🏻
perfect, I just needed some movie that showed me how to remove the matrix when it is full of water, this is perfect.
Congrats, you got all good :-)
Do this on my Bosch dishWasher for years :-) looked like myself doing it LOL.
Thanks for the video, I hava been lazy to make one myself.
You might want to clean that pipe that goes to the bottom to the water pump. It gets all the gunk that has not been trapped elsewhere.
Yes thanks for your comments, that's a good tip :-)
The stills at the start are to point out the two front screws, inside the door, the two clips at the rear of the top panel. You can then remove the left hand side panel by pulling it backwards and up. My theory was if you can't remove these yourself then you really shouldn't be fiddling inside one of these! Hope you find the video helpful in the quest to keep these from landfill.
Thanks alot. I have dismantled mine. Now will check whats issue. Water is not filling and its too slow to move the water arms around to wash.
That was really helpful
For those who just got their hands on a new Bosch Dishwasher and find all the components a bit overwhelming, this guide simplifies the setup process. Remember, we've got genuine Bosch Dishwasher spare parts.
Thank you!!
Thanks for the excellent video.
What would stop the machine filling with water? Blocked float switch plus gunge in the float chamber?
the inlet valve stuck would stop it, plus what you mentioned ;-)
I love the information shared on the internet. Thank you for this. It concerns me that the build up of material in the water inlet pipes and valves reduces the effectiveness and useful life of the machine but the manufacturers are not being required to include some easy remedies.
Shouldn’t there be a mechanism to get cleaning material into the area through the inlet pipe periodically so that it can be flushed through in the same way as central heating radiators can be de-gunked?
This would be too difficult for the manufacturers to implement when this was designed. Now however a little bit of computing power and some sensors could scene the flow rate going down and set off a self cleaning cycle ;-) Would love to see this implemented by a manufacturer!
@@Sunsetseven I believe such an innovation would be a unique selling point in this environmentally sensitive age. Maybe we should start a campaign!
Very helpful. Does the machine drain the side tank after it completes the cycle? Or does the water stay all the way until the next start?
stays in
It still leaked and I've given up and brought a replacement! I wasted so much time on this challenge and Bought a Hisence for £349 which is pretty good, very quiet, shines a light on the floor when it on and opened the door when finished to let the steam out.
I have followed the instructions and everything is going as described in the video except that I cant seem to unblock even with loads of bleach and hot water. I think it is re-hardened dishwasher tablets. The same that clogged my outside drain. It is super tough. I am making some progress but very slow. Is there anything stronger i could use that won’t damage the unit? Any suggestions?
Give Vinegar a go, mixed with some baking powder.
Sunsetseven i did try vinegar first but not very long. Will try again with baking powder. Can you tell me what strength bleach you used? Is it worth tryingBleach 10% sodium hydrochlorite?
@@polomagnum7520 might need a few hours to de-solve it, not sure about using the sodium, let me know what the results are if u try it ;-)
So I have managed to do everything in the video. The matrix fills up easily and quickly. It cascades into the pressure chamber and the float appears to work. However, water still isn’t flowing into the machine. When I set the quick wash cycle, I hear buzzing and whirring but the inside of the machine remains bone dry. Would you know what that could be and provide a link to a video for that? Much appreciated.
@@polomagnum7520 tricky to tell without seeing it.
My biggest issue was getting the lid off, there are no screws fixing it in place; any tips?
should be 4 at the front behind the door and two at the top of the back.
@@Sunsetseven got it, two tabs which depress, then push the lid front to back. The front has two mushroom pins that slide from an elongated hole to a standard hole which then allows the lift up and away
I have this one but cant find out how to remove the side panel and the top. There are no screws and top does not appear to snap off. I have removed the 2 screws at the front but unable to get panel off. Can you help please ?
have you read the message below this?
@@Sunsetseven Video was too fast , slowed it down and yes it looks like that will give it a go thanks.
Didn't watch your video since no explanation of how to remove top and side panel? Need to know that before anything else.
My thoughts were if you cant do that yourself then you shouldn't be inside it.
Just the one job today eh
I'm getting e15 on my Bosch Dishwasher. Water comes in the bottom tray and lifts the float switch. I've been testing it and it only floods about 1 in 5 washes and I can't see where the water is coming from. Could it be from the matrix, which looks gunged up , or the float unit?
I would guess the float unit, as you'll have to take it apart anyway clean them both! Let me know how you get on :-)
I'm having the exact same issue. I don't see water coming out of the matrix, nor from any pipe, i'm pretty confused. Could you fix it?
My Bosch is a never model SMV53A00/03 with a different matrix and float unit. Ive got the matrix off and am cleaning it. I don't know how to clean the float unit as it's very different to yours
@@minipada I think that the matrix is a pressure release vent/valve when the wm drains and if it gets blocked then water comes out and floods the lower tray. So it needs to be cleaned. Mine is a newer 2011
I think that the matrix is a pressure release vent/valve when the wm drains and if it gets blocked, water comes out and floods the lower tray. So it needs to be cleaned. After all, Bosch wouldn't put it there if it had no purpose. Mine is a newer 2011
