Washing machine keeps tripping main fuse box. It could just trigger an error code. After doing this if the washing machine is still tripping the electrics or it is now no longer working this will require an inspection and repair by a trained and qualified Bosch engineer. Earth leakeage is a common problem.
You might disconnect the motor moving the affected wire away from where it. A common fault which can lead to a defective washing machine is the heating element - this can cause a washer to blow a fuse or cause it to trip the RCD Residual Current Device. If the main circuit breaker doesnt trip any more after the drain pump has been unplugged it means you will need to replace the latter.
Some washing machines may trip when particular functions are in use. Fuse Trips As Soon As The Washing Machine Is Switched On. To check if the drain pump is the cause of the issue unplug the appliance from the mains unplug the drain pump and plug the appliance back into the mains.
Make sure that this is correct and sound as in well connected and undamaged. I have been trying to isolate the faulty component and have found that the machine doesnt trip when the front cable harness attached the main programme dial is. For example you could have a bare wire in the wiring harness to the motor which is shorting out on something.
If it has been established that electrical appliances is not the cause of safety switch tripping then faulty wiring can be another issue. This usually takes place each time you switch on the product. If the fuse goes as soon as the washing machine is connected and power is applied then the first go-to thing to look at is obviously the plug wiring if applicable and the cable looks okay.
All you can really do is unplug the machine from the power point open up the control panel 2 screws on touch pad and one at a time unplug and re connect each individual wiring connecter that go to the main computer module Motor controller. The main reasons for tripping of a fuse or RCD when the appliance is the problem is normally an earth leakage or dead short. If you want to prove what is the cause unplug all plugs in the sockets and check the RCD still.
