How can I fix my Bosch Maxx WFL2260 ?

My Bosch Maxx WFL2260 keeps stopping mid programme, Active light moves to End light which keeps flashing. There is water inside the drum just below door level. I have drained via front hose and checked for blockages, seems clear. Have been able to spin after this but when full programme runs again same thing happens. I usually wash 40 degrees Cottons and Linens on quick wash and redued ironing, medium sized loads. Thanks if anyone can help!

Thanks Mike, tried the 90 degrees wash in the first instance and subsequent 40 degree wash went without any problems.

Sue. Probably the pump has failed. The water level is then sensed as too high and the machine stops for safety sake. It may simply be blocked - clean the filter - or the outlet pipe could be clogged with residue if the machine has been used at 40 degrees for years. You should do a 90 degree wash from time to time to clear out all the glug anyway. If it is the pump you can get a patent part off ebay if you or a competent electrician friend is up for it as it can be done from the front of the machine if you also have a cranked wrist! Hope that helps.
