Bosch Serie 6 Service Mode Extra Quality File
I have structured this as a comprehensive guide, suitable for a blog post, a technical forum, or a home appliance repair article.
- Do not run the water inlet test with an open door or no drain nearby.
- Do not run the heater test dry – it can melt plastic components.
- Do not expect a factory reset just by entering – that’s a separate deeper sequence (usually dial to position 1, hold Start for 5 seconds within service mode).
- Read and clear stored fault codes.
- Run motor tests (clockwise/counterclockwise).
- Activate drain pump and inlet valves.
- Heat element test.
- Activate door lock/unlock.
- Display sensor values (pressure, NTC temperature, door switch state).
- Perform automatic calibration or drain/pump auto-test cycles.
