Repair Steps & Checklist

Click steps to track your progress.

  1. 1

    Unplug the washer immediately from power if it is overfilling to prevent water damage.

  2. 2

    Check the pressure hose for any kinks, disconnections, or blockages, as this senses the water level.

    A technician may be needed to inspect the water inlet valves for any signs of sticking open or a malfunction.

  4. 4

    A technician should also check the onboard pressure transducer and main control board if the issue persists.
