Hello everyone. I've bought a second hand Bosch series 6 (2 years old, minimal use). The first washing went without any fault during the cycle, but after the cycle fully finished (10 seconds later), the machine tripped the fuse box. I've removed back and top lid to check if any wired connection didn't come lose during the transport, but everything seemed connected properly. The main program knob was set into "Off" position and I plugged the machine back into socket. After turning the knob onto desired washing program position and without pressing "Start" on touch display, the machine trips the fuse box. There is a delay between turning the knob and the actual trip. This can be from several seconds up to a full minute. Have anyone experienced a similar issue to this one?
 
How was the washing machine transported? . Is it possible you have got water into a switch or plug or board when transporting. I would look for signs of water somewhere it shouldn't be. You say it it trips but not straight away. The first parts of a sequence are usually door lock, water inlet/drain valve. If you can understand what the machine is trying to do then you can test that component.
