Pcboard mulfunctioning

Looks like this is a known defect of this model, the repairs of this looks to be two steps, open up the washer to reattach all the cables to the main control board, or buy the updated board with a later software version and install the new board.
if you want to buy the board you can reference it here Manufacturer's Number: 34001496

Does this change if you select a cold wash or a hot wash? What's the water temperature feel like when it fills? I'd suspect the water control solenoid for either the hot or cold water isn't shutting off completely. This could possibly be due to a piece of debris or mineral deposit in its seat, and could be cleaned with CLR or citric acid if you remove it. They're not very expensive and not a very hard item to change on most machines.

"E3" on a Bosch Maxx means the door is not closed properly. Either there something preventing it from closing properly (blockage) or there is a fault with the locking mechanism.

Im assuming that the water is not releasing all the powder and your spin cycle is not completing its cycle....

sounds a s if you have ablockage within oyour pump assy, remove th elower acess panel and undo the "button trap" your problaby clogged up.. be sureto use HE detegent this will eleminate "suds"

kathy..theres three screws at the bottom panel...remove them,,always unplug first...and you will see your pump claen your filter,,ok onthejob,,just screw it out

e3 code as per the service manual states;


Machine control
is attempting to
drive the motor
but is not seeing
any tach
response. Visual
check shows
motor is not
moving. (Locked,
Hall Sensor fault


a locked hall sensor generally requires replacing the sensor, however on the p[art breakdown for this unit it is listed as part of the motor assy and even that is not clear enough to give you a definitive answer, it lists for over $200 so im not even comfortable telling you " just replace the motor without first running though moore diagnostic tests first.although placement of the tech document is also unclear to me, there is one located within the machine , usually taped to inside wall( for tech to read and daig), pretty descriptive as to how to test certain components.oretty hard ti walk you through step-by-step on this forum.sorry cant be of more help then this

Hi there,

If the washer is not completing the Rinse cycle there may be problem with:

Lid switch
Motor coupler
Belts
Clutch
Drive motor
Drive pulleys
Transmission
Agitator

Let me know if you need further assistance.
