Beeping Our Bosch WFK 2401 will beep during the cycle of washing.  The machine will wash and then stop w/ Multiple beeps.  You have to push the start button to get it to wash again. This happens about 10 times a cycle.  You have to run to the machine and push start or it will beep again after a brief pause. I was told the timer might need to be reset.

I have not fixed my problem yet, but I found a great web site with a complete breakdown of parts for the WFK 2401.

It is http://www.appliancepartspros.com/

They also have live tech support free. It was really quite nice.

Based upon my personal testing of my machine I think my problem may be

1: the circuit board.

2: a inlet valve for the hot or cold water.

Error code 01 keeps flashing. The owners manual says this is a water inlet blockage or a valve problem.

I actually fixed the machine about 1 week ago. the date of this posting.

After much trial and error I figured out it was the Could water valve.

It snapped out w/o the use of a screws. The hoses came off easily enough

And I purchased a new part from a local dealer in Haltom, TX.

The name was "Appliance Part's Depot." They were the cheepest

for this part at $72.50. I followed the advise of another member and took

Lots of pictures.

Had I called a Tech to come to my home and fix it, it would have been big $.

Now All I have to do is wait for the water valve to die.

Thanks for the post! I have the exact same problem with this washer. Was there a good way to test whether your problem was with the cold inlet valve or the hot inlet valve?
Thanks,

Yes,




There is a good way to test whether it is the cold water valve.


Run the machine with out any clothes in it.  1st run it on a cold wash and then a hot wash.  Watch the amount of water moving through the machine.   


Right before you get the error you should be able to hear but not see a water going into the tub.  Pop out the detergent drawer and watch the water flow into the machine.


I would not do this until you are sure that there is restricted water flow as you may end up with a really wet floor.
