Bosch washer error E17 – Water supply issue
The E17 error code on Bosch washing machines indicates a water supply issue, meaning your washer is not receiving enough water to function correctly. Without sufficient water, your washer won’t clean clothes properly, leading to incomplete wash cycles.
Common causes of the E17 error
- Low water pressure
If your home’s water pressure is too low, the washer may not receive enough water.
- Clogged or kinked inlet hose
A blockage in the hose can prevent proper water flow.
- Faulty water inlet valve
A malfunctioning valve can restrict water entry.
- Dirty filter screen
The inlet hose filter may be clogged with debris, affecting water intake.
How to fix the E17 error
- Check the water supply
Ensure the water faucets are fully open.
- Inspect the inlet hose
Look for kinks or obstructions that may restrict water flow.
- Clean the filter screen
Remove and clean any debris blocking the inlet filter.
- Test the inlet valve
If water isn’t flowing correctly, the inlet valve may need replacement.
Pro tip
If your water pressure is consistently low, consider installing a water pressure booster to enhance washer performance.
