    Excellent video. My husband was out!! This Bosch machine has never let me down b4! Whatsapped a son !! He sent me your video and hey presto, I did most if it myself !! Emptied the machine safely But couldn’t undo the cap to get the blockage out. Very clear instructions young man. Well done!!

    Good video with simple to follow instructions. Unfortunately in my case the E18 error code was being caused by a blockage at the hose and pipe clamp so I needed to see a different video to learn what to do there. It might be an idea to do a second video (if you haven't already that is) to show what to do if the problem isn't at the filter.

    Excellent guide. I had this happen last wash and managed to get it open but clothes were soaking. Wash last night same thing happened but I seen the error code this time thankfully. So followed your steps and found a small ankle sock, coin and plastic that is usually on a plastic milk bottle at the cap and a cocktail stick 😂 There is a rotten stale water smell through the kitchen now though so I imagine the water must have been building up there for a while now. Thumbs up helped me sort it 👍

    Thank you so much, a great video. I had this issue and you have my machine in your video too, which was so nice to see. I drained the machine, checked the back pipe, the drain near the machine. But I missed that you could pull out the filter. I found a few now exceptionally clean coins, a small plastic thing from the corners of shirt collars and some random debris. Your trick with the bakling pan is great too for catching the water :)

    @@lords-electrical . Try to imagine an 80 year old woman at 8pm with bucket, tray, towels and fear following your instructions. Man, I did not expect to have to empty so much water! I found the blockage….2 plastic things similar to what you showed. They might have eventually been expelled but the lint from the mats that I was washing, clogged it up real good. I cleared, rinsed and wiped the apparatus, put it on a quick was and breathed a sigh of relief. I eventually wiped under the seals and gave it a cleaning wash. Thank you very, very much.
