Repair guidance / Bosch / BR2
Touch controls do not respond
Note whether the panel is dark, shows a lock symbol or reacts without changing the heat setting. A normal user lock procedure is model-specific. Do not apply cleaning liquid to a powered control area or assume a new control module is needed from the symptom alone.
A different pattern: the appliance is completely unresponsive
Separate a dark display from a lit panel that will not accept a setting. Tell us about any recent electrical work and which other appliances are affected. This enquiry covers existing electric equipment; new gas installation or LPG conversion is outside the service.
A fitted appliance behind a furniture door
Describe the visible furniture panel, plinth and surrounding cupboards. A built-in appliance needs its access and connection arrangement checked before removal; do not detach cabinetry or pull the appliance forward to make the enquiry.
Identify this Bosch model
The E-Nr and FD information on the appliance label helps distinguish parts and variants.
Preparing the Keston visit
Keep the Keston address and complete postcode together with the equipment details. Mention whether this enquiry concerns a fitted appliance, an existing pump or a unit below the kitchen sink so the intended work is clear before booking.
Questions for this repair enquiry
What details help with “touch controls do not respond”?
Keep the last successful operation separate from the first sign of the problem. For a report of “touch controls do not respond”, say what still works and what no longer happens. If the other pattern, “the appliance is completely unresponsive”, has also occurred, include its timing as a separate observation. Send these details with the full model and your Keston postcode; they prepare the enquiry without identifying a part in advance.
How does “the appliance is completely unresponsive” change the enquiry?
Treat that as additional evidence rather than proof that both symptoms have one cause. Explain whether the two patterns began together or appeared at different times. Include the fitting context — a fitted appliance behind a furniture door — so the assessment can account for safe access as well as the reported behaviour.
