The display shows a 'Lo' followed by 'FL' or 'F8 E1' / 'F08 E01', indicating a problem with the water supply to the washer. The unit will drain for 8 minutes with the door locked to reset the code.
Click steps to track your progress.
Check that both hot and cold water faucets are fully turned on.
Ensure both inlet hoses are securely attached to the washer and the water supply, and there are no kinks in the hoses.
Verify the inlet valve screens on the washer are not clogged. Clean if necessary.
Allow the 8-minute drain cycle to complete. Once finished, touch POWER once to clear the code, then touch POWER again to restart the washer.
If the code reappears after following these steps, call for service.
