balfourroadman Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 Hi My Bosch Exccel 1600 has just malfunctioned after 7 years of perfect service. The drum does not rotate and it's unable to pump out any water. When the machine is on there''s a noise which sounds like a bags of stones being mixed around. I haven't been able to pop the back off yet. Just wondering if anyone's had anything similar? Is it a broken belt or maybe a problem with the motor? Any advice would be great. Thanks Balfourroadman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Root Admin Whitegoodshelp (Andy) Posted October 22, 2012 Root Admin Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 The first thing I would do is look at why it isn't emptying the water, it could have something in the pump.

balfourroadman Posted October 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 Hi Andy Thanks for the advice - I found a bra strap around the pump impeller! took it out and all's working well again.
