My old washing now has new carbon brushes and works perfectly again. Thanks very much, this is probably the most helpful video I have ever found on UA-cam.
Wow, thanks so much! Glad the video helped you get your machine going again 👍😎 cheers, Phil
Fantastic video !!...I watched a few on YT first, but I found yours the easiest to follow.I am forever grateful for your detailed step-by-step tutorial. Ordered the carbon brushes for £8 from Amazon, and saved a good £400 for the new Bosh washer. My daughter and I spent 3 hours on this, and didn't even have the correct tools (had to run to the shop in the middle of this job to get the spanner)..But,3 hours later my washer is running again!!.. I feel so proud, thank you !!
Thank you and well done for getting your machine going again! Great that you were able to work with your daughter on it too! Thanks for commenting :-)
Thank you for posting this, ive just repaired a old "dead" 20 years old Bosch washing machine following your video, excellent my friend! liked & subscribed!
Thanks so much! Glad to have you onboard as a subscriber 👍 Good work getting your old machine going again, I’m sure it’s got many more years of service to give 😎 cheers, Phil
Absolutely fantastic!!! Thank you so much!
For the sake of a pair of carbon brushes (£8.30) and an hour and a half of time (could have been quicker, but I didn't have a ratchet spanner!), it's saved us having to get a new machine which is what one guy had suggested I do when I told him the problem ... "it's not worth fixing mate, it's already 10 years old, it'll cost more than it's worth!".
Your instructions and steps in the video were all so clear and unambiguous ... top marks!
Thank you again.
Good work getting it sorted! It’s a little bit more technical than the average diy… yeah, ratchet spanner is a nice little luxury that I treated myself to! 😁 cheers, Phil
Great thank you!!!! Perfect guide and was very easy! Plus cost me £9 rather than a call out for an engineer to do it! Thank you again!!!
What I like to hear! 😎 Thanks for the comment, love to hear about it 👍 cheers, Phil
I just had this error following a power cut whilst the machine was running. The reset steps at the end appear to have sorted it. Thank you.
Glad the reset helped you! Never thought about it but of course, in certain situations, a reset is all the machine may need 👍 cheers, Phil
Thank you for this comment! It fixed mine too by doing just the reset steps at the end
I think a great spin on your channel would be to buy older appliances that maybe dont work or do but then you show us how to do a refurbishment of them. I personally would love to see videos like that and i could buy older items or perhaps pick them up for free and bring new life back to them
Thanks for sharing the idea, I really like it! 👍 I was wondering if people would be interested in that because I watched a channel that fixed appliances and it wasn’t a how to, he started off having no idea what was wrong with the machine and you followed the process… cheers, Phil
@NowFixit I think it would be great. And as a channel, I think it would really take off with Time.
You are a nice man to have shown the troubleshooting for the washing machine . The complicated problem became easier.
Thanks for showing how to solve the problem code F21.
No probs at all, you're very welcome, glad the video helped you! 👍 Thanks, Phil
Great video it really explains how to change the Brushes in my Bosch Washing Machine and how to reset the error code
Safe clear and easy to follow instructions
Well Done
Thanks so much! 👍😁
The best tutorial video I have seen. Clear description and demonstration and not assuming that we have any idea what we are doing is a big help. Followed it step by step and it works perfectly. Many thanks
Thanks for the kind comment! Glad you liked the vid and it helped you 👍 cheers, Phil
Thanks to you, I repaired the Bosch car, which is 16 years old and has not had any repairs until now, and that for only 35 lei, (6 £). It is a very well explained tutorial.
Thank you very much.
Good work! Glad the vid helped you get your machine going again! 👍😎
Thank You your a star my 10yr old Bosch now happy...
Cheers! Hopefully it’ll keep going for many more years 👍 cheers, Phil
Thank you so much!
Perfectly explained each step of the repair
Thank you, You're welcome! Cheers, Phil
Great video, easy to follow. It was a great help, thanks
Thank you! Glad it helped you! 👍😎 cheers, Phil
Brilliant video, I was just about to buy a new machine, I watched your video, ordered the parts from Amazon, they arrived the next day, spent an hour replacing the brushes, it took a couple of goes to clear the code and now all is well, thank you very much for the video, Dave.
Really great to hear! So pleased to hear the vid helped you fix your machine 👍😎 cheers, Phil
Worked an absolute charm, thank you!
Great! Thanks for your comment, glad the fix worked for you 👍 cheers, Phil
Super helpful video. This was my exact problem and the video explained in great detail what I had to do. Very easy to follow and my washing machine works perfectly again. I'm usually rubbish at DIY, so as well as saving money, I've got a great sense of achievement. Thanks very much
Good work! 👍 Glad the video helped but you still had to do the work! great to hear! Cheers, Phil
This was absolutely great! Clear instructions, well made video, and managed to fix it.
One question, the motor now makes a very whiney noise it didn't make before, any clue why that is?
I just got the F21. Ill be honest at first i didn't watch all the video i just watched the end and tried the reset... it worked.....for now. New brushes no doubt will be needed in the near future. Im assuming new machines wont differ much from these older ones when things go wrong...
That’s fair enough! I think you are right and it may keep running for a while yet 👍 Maybe I’ll bring out a “short” just showing the reset 🧐
❤❤❤ thank you
I got to the 12 minute spin and nothing happens????? What now? Great video btw 🙏💪👍👍👍
Thank you, great advice, subbing to channel. Unfortunately, it didn't work with the Bosch washing machine my client has; the door wouldn't open, not sure what I can do about it. Any ideas? Thank you in advance!
Sorry it didn’t sort your problem! Great to have you as a subscriber 👍 I’ve had a door that won’t open before and I used some strong string to open the door. Basically, I forced the string past the door seal nearest the latch and then holding one end in my left hand and the other end in my right hand, I pulled it tight so that it pulled the latch / hook inside the door. Sorry, really hard to explain but I bet there are a few videos on it on UA-cam. I haven’t done one yet… Cheers, Phil
Brilliant video ! I don´t have the F21 code (yet) but I know what to do when I do,it incredible how worn down the carbon brushes are, do you know or have an average life span for them? we use our machine about 3 or 4 times a week ,it is Bosch and about 4 years old ,best regards
Hi @derek-press glad you liked the vid! 👍😎 Usually the machines are pretty old by the time the brushes go. I would estimate 7-8yrs. So make sure you keep the video in your "saved list" 😂 Cheers, Phil
@@NowFixit its saved 👍
@@NowFixit this is why I love YT ,people like you who give up their free time to help people like me (who is a bit handy),a few years ago our heating stopped working ,no heating .no hot water ..it is a Viessmann gas system, it was summer so not so critical and before we called the heating engineer I did a bit of YTing ,found a guy in Germany and he described the fault down to a T (fault code and all) it turned out all I had to do was take out the console /display and change a battery ,a small 1 inch long battery (not rechargeable just a battery)I ordered from the internet 4 pounds! ,and then re program the system which the German guy did step by step,it took about an hour ,imagine what the bill would have been from the heating guys.keep up the great vids ,you need much much more Subs ,regards Derek
@@derek-press That's brilliant! Sounds like you saved a lot of money there. 👍Thank you, yes, as you say there is a good community of people on UA-cam, who says The Internet can't be a positive place! Thanks for your comment above. 👍😎 Cheers, Phil
Hi, great video i have managed to change the carbon brushes but the machine sounds more whirring now. Is this normal? Cheers
Not normally, it usually sounds exactly the same as it used to run. I know it’s a pain but maybe pop the side back off and make sure no wires etc are touching moving parts. Cheers, Phil
@NowFixit cheers Phil, I popped the motor back out and I had fitted one of the brushes the wrong way! Doh!
The brush had started filing down on the opposite side to the angle so i sanded it back to the correct angle and refitted the right way.
My 20nyeaar old bosh machine is now running great and much quieter!
Thanks again for this excellent and useful video!
Cheers
@@jamesoates6309 ah ha! Well done thinking of checking the brushes again It's easy to get wrong, when I was filming I was like "which way was the motor mounted" and "which way were the brushes in, I need to get this right for the viewers!" So filming makes you double check everything (but things sometimes still do go wrong!) lol!
Is f21 same as the f00 cause I’m looking for f00 and I get nothing
I’m sorry, I don’t know… 🤷♂️
