My Bosch WFF 2001 won't wash But when I switch it on and Press Both the Pr Wash Button and the Start Button the Machine, instead of starting up the wash cycle. instead of doing this the Drum starts to spin as if to spin dry and will continue doing so until the Cycle has Finished I thought at first that it could be the Circuit Board that May be the Problem But I'm Not Sure: There was a Rapid Clicking sound Of which would Click, this would Go on until I switched off the Machine About two Months ago I replaced two New Carbon Brushes on the Motor due to it Not working at all: The Machine has been working Properly until Last week Is there anyone that has had the same Problem and was able to Find the fault and Rectify it If you can help me I would be Grateful: I Hate to Loose such a Good Machine I'm not one for Cold water Fill Machines as they take too long to wash

This thread was marked as solved. Here's a summary of the problem and the fix, generated from the discussion below.

Bosch WFF2001 enters spin instead of wash when buttons are pressed together

The problem
A Bosch WFF2001 would not start a normal wash. When switched on and both the pre-wash and start buttons were pressed together, the drum immediately spun as if on spin-dry and continued until the cycle finished. The owner also reported earlier rapid clicking and noted the motor carbon brushes had been replaced about two months before.
Likely cause
The accepted reply indicates the machine was likely being put into a special test mode by pressing more than one button at the same time, rather than showing a confirmed control board fault.
What fixed it
Avoid pressing more than one button together, as this can activate special test modes on this model range. No component repair was documented.
Checks to try
  • Machine spun continuously instead of beginning a wash cycle when the pre-wash and start buttons were pressed together
  • Motor carbon brushes had been replaced about two months earlier

Pressing more than 1 button at the same time can set them into special test modes.
