Bosch Washing Machine Error Code E27
DIY checks first
What this code means
E27: Mains voltage too low
On models that show it, E27 reports the supply voltage dropped below the level the machine needs, so it stopped to protect itself.
Also shown as: F27
Common causes
- Brownout or unstable supply
- Overloaded circuit in the home
- Fault in the supply to the outlet
What to check, in order
- Wait for the supply to stabilise and restart the programme.
- Try a different outlet on another circuit if it repeats.
- Frequent E27 with no known supply issues should be checked by an electrician first, then a technician.
Safety first. Switch the machine off and unplug it before cleaning filters or moving hoses. Expect water to come out when you open a pump filter; keep a tray and towel ready. If you are not comfortable with any step, stop and call a technician.
