WATER SUPPLY
Cause
Correct water level (24.6 kHz) is not reached within 8 minutes after water is supplied or it does not reach the preset water level within 20 minutes.
Water supply faucets are not fully open, or low water pressure.
Water inlet hoses are kinked, pinched, or crushed.
Solution
Make sure that the water faucets are fully open.
Make sure that the hoses are not kinked, pinched or crushed behind or under the washer. Be careful when moving the washer during cleaning or maintenance.
Cause
Water inlet filters are clogged.
Solution
Clean the inlet filters.
Cause
Pressure sensor tube has small hole.
Solution
Replace pressure sensor assembly. The tube only comes with the pressure sensor assembly.

TESTING THE WATER INLET VALVE
Step 1: Check resistance of the water valves.
Disconnect the harness connections from the water valves, test the resistance of each valve.
Resistance should be approximately 26 – 28Ω for these DC valves. If an open is read replace the water valve.
Step 2: Check the voltage to the water valves.
The voltage should read 12Vdc (in test mode). Approximately 6Vdc during cycle.
Place in test mode and cycle through the valve operation.
If no voltage is present check from the Main PCB, if no voltage there, replace the Main PCB.
If voltage is present suspect a harness issue.
Step 3: Check the Pressure Sensor.
If the valves are working in test mode, see if the frequency decrease as water comes into the tub.
If it does not, inspect the Pressure Sensor hose for a hole, and check the pressure sensor with your meter. Resistance from pins i to 3 should be around 21ohm. (See PE error code article).
Located in the rear of the unit the water valve assembly can be accessed by removing the top cover.
Note: Please refer to your model’s diagram for wire colors and connections.
