Hello,

Please can anyone tell me the reset procedure for a Bosch Exxcel 1400
washing machine? It keeps stopping at random intervals. Sometimes it
restarts when left for a while, other times after being switched off
and on
at the mains supply. The problem began after power was removed while
it was
working.

Here's a procedure for one Bosch Exxcel:

Terminating the programme
(Reset)
€“ Simultaneously press programme
buttons# and3
for approx. 3 sec.
€“ The programme sequence lasts
approx. 1 min. On the digital
display8 €¹ is indicated.
€“ Switch off the main switch(.

This model doesn't appear to have those buttons - most of the
programming
is by a knob and the buttons a Start, Reduced ironing, Rinse plus,
and
Reduced time. I've tried pressing all combinations of two of these, and
all
combinations of three of them, for 3 seconds, with no effect. So, thank
you
and I'm grateful for your contribution, but it must be for a different
model.

You can download a .pdf once you know the E-number. Find the E-number
per the procedure on this web page, then navigate to the product
manual download page, input the E-number, and you will be enjoying
your proper manual's reset instructions in no time.

Thanks to both spamtrap1888 and to William Sommerwerck. I've tried both
suggestions, but no success. The manuals from Bosch don't give a reset
procedure (I suppose that would be in a repair manual, but isn't in the
user manuals). I've also tried switching it off a few times while running,
but no improvement. Think what I need is a reset procedure that might be
in
a repair manual...

Just a thought. On consumer items like hifi's and DVDs, the reset procedure
often involves holding in a button, or combination of buttons, whilst
applying power. Usually, the buttons have to be held for several seconds,
and then some message will come up in the display, or a combination of LEDs
will indicate that a reset has taken place. Sometimes, the reset sequence is
not actioned, until the button(s) are let go.
