Bosch Nexxt 500 Plus Elect Dryer Error E01

I have a Bosch Nexxt 500 Plus Elect dryer and I continue to get an error message of "ER001" and the lint filter light comes on and the dryer shuts down. I've cleaned the filter, cleaned the sensors, even removed the vent to ensure nothing was obstructing the free flow of air. I've run out of solutions, any suggestions?

    This dryer was just installed today and I've got the same problem. We cleaned out the rigid duct & shortened the flexible duct. I used a dryer sheet in the 1st two loads and none in the last load. So far no beeping or error. Not sure if it's a fix or not as of yet. I will be changing to liquid softner however.

    We live in a 1 & 1/2 year old home. Worked well for about a year, now it gives me the error every time I try to dry a load...dries for several minutes only and then beeps with the error again. We've cleaned the filter well over and over. HELP?

    Bosch Nexxt 800 dryer was installed Monday and ran for ten minutes before the Lint Warning light came on and Error 001 message stopped the machine.
    Its brand new - and was put in the same spot as the old dryer which ran without problems.

    Any chance someone got this E01 error resolved?

Absolutely those dryer sheets are the root of all evil....I would also recommend a good vent brush to clean your dryer vent.
Follow these steps, it worked for me:
1. use a shop vacuum to clean out the dry vent or a vent brush.
2. Clean your lint filter with windex, hot water and and soft bristle brush.
If this doesnt work try running the until disconnected from the vent for a cycle to isolate the vent as your issue.

Cheers!

Hey, I have a great idea ! Don't use anymore fabric sheets in the dryer.. Liquid Downey is what we use and the E01 error has finally got out of my every dry cycle.. Honestly I think it is something in the sheets that clog up those 12 thousand holes on the lint filter...

    and by the way, clean the filter with care, and stop using sheets...

E01 error message. I got all the lint out, using an air compressor but still get E01. One answer said to unblock the air filter or damper. How do you do that?
Down where the exhaust hose attaches you will have to take that off. I almost guarantee that you have a mass of lint, pencils, lighters, small animals and everything else down there. You will have to get a flashlight to see it all.

NEXXT 6500 Dryer Bosch continues to give E01 error with lint filter flashing
Try cleaning out the compartment below the lint filter. There's a sensor in there that is probably buried in lint.

What does E:01 on the Bosch Nexxt Premium dryer mean?
Hello Christie, welcome to FixYa.

I'll start by saying your post indicates it is a Bosch dryer, correct ?

Well the E01 error on these machines indicates an air flow problem...specifically (usually) the lint screen, but can be a build up of lint in the venting as well. Start by checking the lint screen.

This from the horses mouth...errr Bosch ;o)

This was a previous post, but it may work for you.

A friend of ours has a bosch gas dryer and she had the same problem. She called the Bosch repairman and he sprayed the lint filter with Greased Lightning to clean out the tiny holes in it. He charged $100 and left. He said it would take care of the problem. Has not had any problems since. http://www.greased-lightning.com/ It is worth a try.

On my Bosch Nexxt 500 Series Electric Dryer keeps shutting off and gives the E-01 error we have check the exhaust air duct on back of the dryer and we have vacuumed the inside bearing shield what else...
Motor won't work
Lint screen hi-limit (thermal cutout) tripped.
Clean lint screen and clean lint and other debris from front shield, then replace hi-limit. Also check exhaust duct length & # of elbows.
Wire harness failed.
Run resistance or continuity checks to track down broken wire or connector. Replace failed wire harness.
Display shows "E:01" during drying.
Lint filter, air duct or air damper is blocked.
Air leaking past felt drum seal.
Air duct is too long, too small or has too many bends. Inadequate ventilation around dryer (i.e. in a closet).
Clean out filter, air duct and air damper.
Replace felt drum seal. If seal doesn't fit snugly onto drum, wet felt and dry it by running a timed dry cycle for 20 minutes (felt will shrink and fit drum snugly).
Shorten, enlarge, reroute and reduce # of bends in air duct. Move dryer to an area

Bosch Nexxt 800 series dryer E01 error
My wife has a Bosch Premium dryer that had drying problems. The lint filter would get cleaned but the machine still did not operate correctly, as you explained above. Her machine was made in 2005 and the lint screen, the plastic slotted unit in front of the lint filter was the problem. It gets clogged up with hair/lint that never makes it to the filter. I tried a shop vac to vacuum it but the problem was still there. Get a pistol cleaning kit for a 22 cal gun. Pull the lint filter out & then take the pistol rod and insert it from the drum side into each slot and pull out the tons of lint. Pull the lint off the rod when done and take a flame to burn the rest off as the rod is a brass brush with small wires on it.
