There are a number of different version of the electronics used in Bosch Group made washing machines and washer dryers that are sold as Bosch, Siemens and Neff and most of them use the different fault or error codes when they have a problem or a spare part fails. This particular article relates especially to the range of Logixx washing machines that have an ENR number in the format of WAS****GB/** where the asterisks replaced by a number for each one.
The likes of Logixx 8 for example is only a Bosch Logixx series washing machine that has an 8kg rated load capacity, it is not a model number.
So far as we are aware these were used on models from all three Bosch owned brands, Bosch, Neff and Siemens. We have limited information as Bosch does not allow independent repairers access to technical support.
Before you start any investigation of the fault or even remove the lid of the washing machine or washer dryer please read and fully understand this article in full and pay particular attention to the safety and information notices at the bottom of this page as they contain extremely important information!

It is showing "fault 17" and I have therefor cleaned both filters back and front..
The machine does get water only when on a prewash waterplus program set to rinse and spin!
I do not understand if the water can get to the drum on one program why does it not on the others.. I am hoping it is not a program fault and if that is the case is that very expensive to mend/replace?
If you ask in the forums someone should be able to help you.
Can you advise
