# Bosch washer showing E:32

## What E:32 actually means.

E:32 means the washer stopped the spin because the laundry was unevenly spread in the drum.

Bosch washer display · also shown as E:60 -2B, H:32

What to do when E:32 shows on the washer

### Kind of code Unbalanced load

The control sensed the drum wobbling and cut the spin short. Usually it is one heavy item bunched to one side or a machine that is not level; worn shocks or springs come next, and shipping bolts left in a new washer are checked too.

### Usually leads to Suspension and shock repair

A washer that shakes, bangs the cabinet or walks across the floor on the spin, repaired at the shocks, springs, rods and feet.

### Shows up as Washer Shaking and Walking

The washer shakes hard, thumps against the wall or creeps across the floor during the spin.

### Make Bosch

Compact 24-inch front-load washers from the German maker, designed to stack with a matching Bosch dryer.

### Source Bosch WGA12400UC (300 Series) user manual and installation instructions (PDF on the BSH media server)

Bosch WAT28400UC (E:32, alternating with END); the newer 300 Series WGA12400UC lists E:60 -2B, E:32 and H:32.

## Questions about E:32.

### Can I clear E:32 myself?

Redistribute the laundry evenly, mixing large and small items. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### My Bosch shows E:32 and END. Did the wash finish?

The wash and rinse finished, but the final spin was cut short. Spread the load out and run a Spin program.

### Why does my new Bosch washer shake and show E:32?

Bosch lists transit bolts left in place and a washer that is not aligned among the causes of heavy vibration, so check both after a new install.
