Bosch WKD28350 tripping electrics after bra wire jam
- The problem
- A Bosch WKD28350 washer dryer tripped the electrics. A bra wire was found stuck through the drum and removed. The drum then turned normally, but the owner believed the machine might need a reset.
- Likely cause
- The accepted reply states a washing machine would not normally need resetting after this type of fault. If it still trips the electrics, the fault has not been fixed. If it no longer trips but still does not work correctly, there is still another fault, possibly damage caused when the electrics tripped or the original failed part having now failed completely.
- What fixed it
- No reset procedure was confirmed. The advised action was that the machine should work normally once the real fault is properly repaired. If it is still tripping or not operating correctly, further fault-finding is required rather than a reset.
- Checks to try
- Bra wire was found stuck through the drum and removed
- Drum was reported to turn ok after removing the bra wire
- Machine had previously tripped the electrics
Safety: Further diagnosis should be carried out by a suitably qualified appliance engineer.

Hello Gez. A washing machine wouldn't normally need resetting. Once a fault has been properly fixed the washing machine should carry on working as normal.
If you Removed the bra wire but it is still tripping the electrics then the fault has not been fixed. If it is no longer tripping the electrics but it is not working properly then there is still a fault.
Sometimes if the washing machine blows a fuse or the electrics other parts can be damaged. Or alternatively once the fuse is blown the part that caused it has failed completely. It may no longer trip the electrics but it will also cause a different fault on the washing machine. For full advice on this problem read my article here Washing machine blowing fuses or tripping the electrics

Thanks very much andy
I had assumed that there would be a safety cut out on the machine in case of things like this which could have been reset as I know some of them have a reset inside the casing or a reset procedure via the control panel.
