Laundry too wet/damp after spin — Low spin, drain issue, or unbalance

Bosch · Washing Machines

What does The spin result is not satisfactory. The laundry is too wet/too damp mean?

The laundry remains excessively wet or damp after the spin cycle, which can result from a low spin speed setting, a blocked drain system, or an unresolved unbalanced load.

Common Causes

  • A low spin speed is selected.
  • Drain pipe or water outlet hose is blocked or jammed.
  • The unbalanced load detection system has interrupted the spin cycle because the laundry is unevenly distributed.
  • Unbalance load detection system is using a reduced spin speed to eliminate an unbalance.
