: Insert a screwdriver into the plunger from above and loosen the holding screw by 3 to 4 turns (do not remove it completely to avoid losing the set screw) .
Faulty carbon brushes or a dead "Constant Electronic" circuit. Fix: Check the carbon brushes (manual page 42 for location). If brushes are fine (>5mm length), the electronic module is likely dead. Replacement modules are available on eBay for ~$25. Installation requires desoldering – take it to a Bosch service center.
