What This Means

Input leakage at the valves; Drain hose not positioned at the correct height (must be 0.9-1.2 m above floor); Blockages or leaks in the air hose between the tub and the pressure switch; Air leakage at the air hose connector on the outer tub

How to Fix

  1. 1

    Verify drain hose is positioned 0.9-1.2 m (36-48 inches) above the floor

  3. 3

  4. 4

  5. 5

    If inlet valve works continuously when power is applied, replace main PCB assembly
