The error with code F29 is due to the fact that water does not enter the system through the flow sensor. In this case, the machine does not start the program, and if it still starts, then there is no noise characteristic of the set of water. What to do? First you need to make sure that no external factors caused this code, and only after that proceed with the repair.

What to check yourself?
- If an unpleasant code appeared during the first use of the washing machine, then there are problems with its connection. It is important that the water inlet hose is located at a height of half a meter or higher from the floor;
- Inlet hose should be located freely. Examine it for kinks and kinks, check if it is damaged and snug;
- Between the hose and the valve for water intake there is a filter in the form of a mesh. Make sure it is not clogged. In general, regular cleaning of the filters is useful for any model of washing machine, so do not neglect this item. Additionally, you can clean the hose itself under high pressure;
- Open and close the drum door. All Bosch cars are equipped with a protection system that prohibits the flow of water while the hatch is not closed properly. If you don’t hear a familiar click when you press the door, you may need to replace the hinges or latches;
- If everything is in order from the side of the washing machine, you need to check the water supply. Low pressure or its complete absence can provoke code F29. To check if water is being supplied to the hose, unplug it and lower it into a bowl or basin. If the water flows weakly, the bottleneck is precisely in the water supply system. Have you noticed this? Check if the pipes are blocked and call the plumber.
Replacing worn parts and repairs
All checks passed, but the problem is not resolved? It seems repair is inevitable. Code F28 can signal the breakdown of a number of parts: pressure sensors and water supply in the drum, control module, board, which is responsible for locking the door. For an accurate diagnosis, you should contact the master.
