Thanks that worked real well! Note I, used a bicycle pump with a tapered air mattress filling end fitting to pump, air into the drain line and loosen up the lint you can hear it bubbling out in the sump !!! Then used clean water rinse like in your video after cleaning out a large deposit of lint!!

Life saver. In apt bldg. Only started to heavily use dryer during the pandemic. Cleaned out fine filter each time but had no idea about the other two or the water area. Was not drying all the way. So opened it up and found the two filters i have cleaned in the 5 years i lived here, 3 yrs of which i did 4 loads a week. I need the building guys to pull it out so i can get to the sump tube. I bet no one has cleaned this since the building was built ten years ago. Truly a fire hazard. Thank you for such a clear description. Now i need to explore my bosch dishwasher and washing machine which probably also need routine maintenance

I know this is 7 years old, but THANK YOU!!! we where going to have to pay so much money for something I KNEW we could fix ourselves and with your help we

[thadrichardson]

I don't typically comment on YT videos but this video was so helpful. We bought our house along with the washer and dryer that were there. For two years I was getting the DR error on almost every load. This video showed me how to remedy the problem and we have had months of error free drying. Thanks so much!!

[philpreston]

Awesome. You saved me a call to an expensive technician. A quick clean of the sump was all I needed to stop the Bosch dryer continually shutting down 1 min after running.

[raulurrutia]

Seriously ... YOU ARE A LIFESAVER! Watched your video and was better than talking to customer care. Thank you!!!!

I've struggled with my 300 series condenser dryer for months. The service replaced the pump, but then it acted up again. I discovered this trap door and found that the sump accumulates lint and slime. I cleaned it out, then poured some Chlorine bleach into the sump. A few days later, the dryer started working like new because the slime dissolved from the sump and from the pump impellers. I appreciate seeing this video because it gives you the clues you need to keep the dryer working.

Scott! Thank you so much for sharing the fix! I've had repair people come so many times for the DR error and when it came on this morning I just thought this is way too much! Like other commenters, I didn't want to call a repair service as that involves money going out as well as a wait for service. Your instructions are really clear and spot on and I learned how to fix the problem. This is just absolute awesome! Thanks for saving me the hassle Scott, you are appreciated!

My dryer had not worked right consistently for nearly a year and drove me crazy. THANK YOU so much for this tutorial. Works flawlessly now. :)

[daniellegamar]

This was great! THANK YOU!!!! I was at the verge of calling someone, $200 automatic fee just to make the visit to my house, and tried this first after a quick Google search. I really appreciate you taking the time to post this, being so specific with the steps, and helping me to fix this issue!

Thank you for this, i've been struggling for months with this problem, and i've everything possible, but i didn't know about this secret door, and its was absolutely clogged causing DR errors. Just cleaned it now (with paper towels, that works the best i found) and it looks clean. I had to set my iphone on timer to even be able to see what it looks like. THANK YOU!!

[bgilbertson]

This video was awesome. Clear and easy to follow. Lint in the sump pump area was something the manual doesn't address and like others have mentioned in their comments....that is exactly what we needed to get the "check drain" error to clear. Thank you

[kenchristopher]

This is BRILLIANT. We’ve had annual problems with the pump being clogged with lint and when it happened this year I thought I’d try to fix it myself. Your video allowed me to do it without problem. THANK YOU. Bosch has been fantastic in never charging for the visits since it’s the same problem, but now I can do it myself without waiting for the technician.

[sarahschultz]

Thank you so much for this video! My dryer has been throwing up the DR error for a couple of months and it's gptten so bad that my laundry has become practically at a standstill. I was afraid I would have to call someone, but fortunately I found your excellent video first. It was eaay to follow your instructions. After cleaning out all the sludge, I also blew into the tube as you suggested and could feel a partial blockage clear.

Note: Also, I read some of the comments first, and the comment from someone who also has a 300 series like I do mentioned that ypu have to pull the clips towards you, which was good to know.

[shottzztv]

Thanks for this. My Bosch Classics dryer causes problems every so often with the container light flashing and the dryer stopping (water container is empty). I used clean out the condenser and after many attempts I would persuade the machine to work again fine for another couple of months. This time, could not get it going again. Found this video, finally managed to open the little flap on the floor of the machine and cleared out so much fluff from there. Hey presto, my dryer worked again immediately after carrying out this procedure. Thanks for the video, so very useful. Just a pity that Bosch themselves have no interest in helping their customers!!!!

[JoeACorrea]

Thank you! I have a newer model that has been having the DR code pop up. I've been cleaning the heat exchanger but never noticed that trap door. My pump was on the opposite side but I never would have found it without this video. I can't believe this isn't in the manual.

[arkapbasu]

Had no idea there is a secret chamber. Thank you, this was extremely helpful!

[jaynemclean]

Hopefully you saved me money my husband was gonna buy new one. So when he went to work I watched your video. I'm very particular and clean regularly.
Never done deep clean like you done. Thankyou so much😁

[bigjoshlevine]

Oh man, thank you! Never would have thought to pry up that access panel. Even fixed the horrible screeching noise that I has assumed was a bad belt or something! THANK YOU!

[RachelDavis]

I just moved into an apartment with this dryer and it was stopping while the clothes were still damp. These steps helped and now it drys my clothes. Thanks!
