Bosch WAS24460UC/28 washer Parts

The most common issue we see with Bosch front-load washers like the Bosch WAS24460UC is a load that goes out of balance, which can cause loud banging, vibration, or a spin that stops early. The next most common problems are draining restrictions (often from debris) and door-lock related faults.

Quick checks that fix the most “common” problems

• Pause the cycle and redistribute items (especially towels, blankets, and small mixed loads).
• Run a Spin/Drain cycle again after rebalancing.
• Confirm the washer is level and solid on the floor (front-loaders amplify vibration when unlevel).
• Check for slow draining symptoms (water left in the drum, long drain time, wet clothes).
• If the door will not lock or the cycle will not start, inspect the latch area for detergent residue or clothing caught in the door.

Common symptoms and the most likely cause

Symptom	Most likely cause	What to do first
Loud banging during spin	Unbalanced load	Redistribute laundry; reduce load size
Won’t spin or stops mid-cycle	Out-of-balance condition or door not locking	Rebalance; make sure door closes firmly
Water left in drum	Drain restriction	Check drain path; clean pump filter if accessible
Won’t start and door seems “unlatched”	Door lock issue	Check latch alignment; consider replacing the lock

Parts that commonly relate to these problems (for WAS24460UC)

If troubleshooting points to a failed component, these model-matched parts are commonly involved:

• Electronic lock 00612148 (door won’t lock, cycle won’t start)
• Washer water inlet valve 00611702 (slow fill, no fill, fill errors)
• Washer drain hose 00704793 (leaks, siphoning, poor drain routing)

Why it matters

Catching an out-of-balance condition or a developing drain restriction early helps prevent repeat shutdowns, excessive vibration, and strain on the drive system (belt, motor, and bearings). It also helps you avoid water left in the drum, which can lead to odor.

Where to find model-specific operating guidance

For cycle behavior, display messages, and safety steps (including unplugging and shutting off the water before service), follow the owner's manual.

A Bosch washing machine typically lasts 10 to 15 years with normal household use. For your Bosch WAS24460UC, consistent care (correct detergent, clean seals, and proper installation) helps you reach the longer end of that range; heavy daily use shortens it. See the owner's manual for model-specific care and safety guidance.

What affects washer lifespan most

• Load size and frequency: fewer overloaded cycles reduces stress on the drive system and tub bearings.
• Water quality: hard water speeds up mineral buildup in valves and hoses.
• Detergent use: too much detergent increases residue, odors, and drain issues.
• Ventilation and drying: leaving the door ajar helps prevent mold and gasket deterioration.
• Installation quality: a level washer vibrates less and protects the suspension and bearings.

Maintenance that adds years (simple habits)

• Wipe the door boot and glass after the last load of the day.
• Run a monthly cleaning cycle (or hot wash) to reduce residue.
• Check fill and drain hoses for bulges, cracks, or seepage.
• Clean the detergent drawer and flush the compartments.
• Keep the washer level to reduce spin vibration.

Common wear items and what they usually mean

Symptom	Often related to	Example part for WAS24460UC
Door won’t lock or cycle won’t start	Door lock mechanism	Electronic lock 00612148
Slow fill or fill errors	Inlet valve or supply restriction	Washer water inlet valve 00611702
Not draining well or leaks at the back	Drain hose or blockage	Washer drain hose 00704793

Why it matters

Knowing the typical 10 to 15 year lifespan helps you decide whether routine maintenance, a hose replacement, or a larger repair (motor, tub, bearing) makes the most sense for your Bosch WAS24460UC based on age and symptoms.

Bosch does not use a single fixed country of origin for every WAS24460UC washer; the manufacturing location depends on the specific unit and production run. For the most accurate answer, we recommend checking the rating plate on your washer and confirming details in the owner's manual.

How to find the manufacturing location on your washer

Look for the appliance rating plate (data label). On most Bosch front-load washers, it is typically:

• Around the door opening (door frame area)
• On the inside edge of the door
• Behind the lower access panel (if equipped)
• On the back panel of the cabinet

The label usually lists the factory code, serial number, and other identifiers that indicate where that specific washer was made.

What to record before you look it up

Write down these items from the rating plate so you can match the information to your exact unit:

• Model number: WAS24460UC
• FD number (production date code, if shown)
• Serial number
• Any “Made in” statement or factory code

Why the answer can vary by unit

Bosch appliances are produced in multiple facilities over time. Two washers with the same model number can be built in different locations depending on:

• Production year and batch
• Component sourcing changes
• Regional distribution and assembly

Quick reference: where to check first

What you want to know	Best place to check	Why it’s reliable
Country of manufacture	Rating plate on the washer	It’s specific to your exact unit
Model identification details	Owner's manual	Helps you confirm model labeling and documentation
Replacement parts by model	This model’s parts list, or Sears PartsDirect	Ensures parts match WAS24460UC

Why it matters

Knowing where your specific WAS24460UC was made helps when you are matching documentation details, identifying production codes, and ordering the correct replacement parts (such as a door lock, inlet valve, or drain hose) for your exact unit.

Yes. A Bosch washer like the WAS24460UC is a strong buy when you want long-term reliability, efficient water and energy use, and consistent cleaning performance; it is built as a high-quality appliance and designed for regular household use (see the WAS24460UC owner's manual).

When a Bosch washer is worth it

• You prefer a machine with clear operating and care guidance for best results.
• You value a repairable platform with model-specific replacement parts available.

What to consider before you buy

Bosch washers tend to deliver the best value when the installation, maintenance, and usage match the design. We recommend checking the operating and safety guidance in the manual and planning for routine care (door gasket area, detergent drawer, and drain system).

Quick decision guide

If you care most about...	Bosch is usually a good fit because...	What to verify first
Lower utility use	Front-load design typically uses less water	Cycle options and your typical load types
Quiet, stable operation	Quality build and balanced spin design	Proper leveling and flooring stability
Long-term ownership	Parts support helps extend service life	Availability of key parts for your model

Parts support that helps protect your investment

If you already own the Bosch WAS24460UC, keeping it running often comes down to a few common service items. For example, a door that will not lock or start can point to the electronic lock 00612148. Water fill issues can involve the washer water inlet valve 00611702. You can order model-matched parts from the parts list for this washer, or search by model number on Sears PartsDirect.

Why it matters

A washer is only a “good value” if it stays efficient and dependable over time. Following the operating and safety instructions, using the right cycles, and replacing wear parts promptly helps you avoid repeat issues and get the full lifespan out of the machine.
