How to Fix Bosch Washer Error E06

Error Code: E06 Difficulty: Moderate

Problem: Door is not closed.

How to Fix E06 Error (Step-by-Step)

1. First, ensure the washer door is completely closed and that no clothing is caught between the door and the seal.
2. Unplug the washing machine from the electrical outlet for safety.
3. Open the door and inspect the door latch mechanism on the door itself and the door strike on the washer body. Look for any visible signs of damage, cracks, or foreign objects.
4. Examine the door hinge for any looseness or damage that could prevent proper alignment.
5. To inspect the door lock assembly, you will need to peel back the door boot seal from the front panel around the lock area.
6. Unscrew the two screws holding the door lock assembly in place and carefully pull it out.
7. Check the electrical connections to the door lock. If they appear secure and the lock shows no physical damage, the lock assembly itself may have failed and needs to be replaced.
8. Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.

Still Not Working?
If the replacement part didn’t fix the issue, you may have a wiring problem or main board failure.
