Just gone to open machine and found machine to have the spin button on but not flashing, washing stillwet so didnt appear to have spun but no water in machine so presume pump working but washing would usually be much drier, so premuse not spun. Tried turning machine off then 3 lights on the spin speed display bar flash and wont allow you to press any other buttons. Would this be a problem with the brushes or control panel??? If it is the brushes are the ones listed on site suitable as not sure if this model has a FHP motor?????

RE Amanda's comments. please watch the video again because it is important to realise that your machine can be unbalanced when washing one or two items on their own or with a full load. it is not so much about how full the machine is it is to do with whether the heavier items in the load can spread evenly around all the drum.
- Hello, I can confirm it was only a half load, had done 2 previous full loads before this problem occured. The machine was only half full but in my opinion full enough to not unbalance. It drained most water but left clothes damper than norm solely as machine didnt do final spin, it was only on a quick wash, so dont believe problem lies in the pump. Hubby replaced brushes with new, its fair to say they needed doing and we were hopeful this would be the end, but the machine no has a different sequence of lights all on the spin bar. Im certain I dontwant to spend lots on this machine as almost as cheap to replace with new as call an engineer. Any suggestion or is my Bosch of to washing machine heaven.

If the problem resets when switched off and you had a heavy item in the load (large towel bath matt or bath robe) the fault may have been out of balance (see:How to Prevent a Washing Machines Spinning Noisily: http://www.espares.co.uk/advice/7/2401 If the machine still wont start check the brushes (see :How to replace the carbon brushes on a washing machine - Bosch http://www.espares.co.uk/advice/7/1379 )
