Fault Code Cause Solution
F1 Water Flow Issue Verify water supply valve is open. Check connections for damage. Clean inlet screen. Ensure minimum 20 PSI water pressure. Consider water pressure booster if needed.
F3 Heating System Failure Test heating element continuity (15-30 ohms range). Check high-limit thermostat. Inspect wiring for damage. Replace heating element or repair wiring as needed.
F4 Water Leakage Inspect hoses, door seal, and tub for damage. Check inlet valve for cracks. Verify proper drain hose installation with high loop. Replace damaged components.
F6 Temperature Sensor Test sensor continuity. Check wiring connections. Replace temperature sensor if readings are outside specification. Verify control board connections.
F7 Flow Meter Malfunction Clean flow meter of debris. Check electrical connections. Test meter functionality. Replace if defective. Verify proper water pressure.
F1E1 Main Control Board Communication Disconnect power for 5 minutes. Check all wire harness connections. Test voltage to board. Replace control board if no communication is restored.
F2E2 UI Control Connection Inspect wire harness for damage. Test continuity of connections. Check for loose connections. Replace UI board or wire harness if defective.
F3E1 Thermistor/OWI Issue Test thermistor resistance. Check wiring connections. Clean OWI sensor. Replace thermistor if readings are incorrect.
F3E2 OWI Calibration Clean OWI sensor thoroughly. Reset calibration. Check wiring connections. Replace sensor if calibration fails repeatedly.
F4E3 Wash Motor Circuit Test motor continuity. Check for mechanical binding. Verify control board outputs. Replace motor or control board based on testing results.
F6E1 Water Supply Check water pressure. Inspect inlet valve screen. Verify valve operation. Clean or replace valve if needed. Check for kinked supply lines.
F6E3 Inlet Valve Fault Test valve solenoid. Check electrical connections. Verify proper water pressure. Replace valve if defective.
F6E4 Water Distribution Check spray arms for blockage. Test diverter motor operation. Clear any debris from water paths. Replace diverter motor if faulty.
F7E1 Heating Element Issue Test element continuity. Check wiring connections. Verify relay operation. Replace heating element or relay if defective.
F7E2 Heater Relay Fault Test relay function. Check control board outputs. Inspect wiring. Replace relay or control board based on testing.
F8E1 Slow Drain Clean filters and drain hose. Check for drain hose kinks. Test drain pump operation. Clear any blockages in drain system.
F8E2 Drain Pump Failure Test pump motor. Check for blockages. Verify electrical connections. Replace pump if motor fails testing.
F8E4 Overflow Detection Check float switch operation. Inspect for stuck float. Test drain system. Replace float switch if defective.
F8E5 Water Inlet Problem Verify water supply. Check inlet valve operation. Test pressure switch. Replace faulty components as needed.
F9E1 Diverter Motor Failure Test motor operation. Check for mechanical binding. Verify electrical connections. Replace motor if failed.
F9E2 Diverter Valve Position Check valve position sensor. Test motor operation. Verify control signals. Replace diverter assembly if needed.
FAE5/F10E5 Dispenser Problem Check dispenser mechanism. Test wax motor. Verify spring operation. Replace dispenser assembly if defective.
H2O Water Supply Issue Check water supply pressure. Verify supply valve is open. Test inlet valve operation. Clear any blockages in supply line.
10-5 Control Panel Error Reset power. Check all connections. Test control panel response. Replace control panel if communication fails.
1-1 Temperature Problem Check water temperature. Test heating element. Verify sensor operation. Replace failed components as needed.
6-1 Water Intake Issue Verify water supply. Check inlet valve. Test pressure switch. Clean or replace components as needed.
8-1 Drainage Problem Clean drain system. Check pump operation. Clear any clogs. Replace pump if defective.
8-4 Overflow Detection Test float switch. Check drain system. Verify pump operation. Replace faulty components.
8-5 Fill Level Issue Check pressure switch. Verify water supply. Test inlet valve. Replace defective parts as needed.
9-1 Diverter System Test diverter motor. Check valve position. Verify control signals. Replace diverter assembly if failed.
