Do-It-Yourself Story

Unplug machine, turned off water supply. (Both were under the sink in my case.) Removed front cover of unit. Removing the 6 torque screws. (The painted metal face cover of the door not the electric head unit.) I say this because both have 6 fasteners. Removed lower face plate.(2 #2 Philips screws) Removed inner lower faceplate (2 torque bolts) Noticed water around the Styrofoam float and micro switch. Removed upper mounting screws to kitchen counter, raised lower leveling feet by turning counterclockwise. Carefully raised unit over tile flooring and removed it from under the counter. Sopped up water in the base catch pan, and around float for the micro switch. Unplugged micro switch by carefully wiggling left and right with upward force. Removed the float and cleaned up the remaining water. Reinstalled float and switch. Plugged unit back in and turned on water. Turned unit on and started a wash cycle. Now watched for leaks. Noticed that the water supply valve at the back was dripping. Stopped cycle by holding Start button for 3 seconds. Turned off water supply again. Machine then drained. Unplugged unit. Removed green electrical connector from valve. Disconnected water supply (metal braided no burst hose) with a pair of normal pliers. From the back left side of unit lifted the fabric noise insulation. Reaching to the valve lifted the center of the base of the plastic retaining bezel that holds the valve and pushed it out. Removed bezel from the valve, than pulled the valve and feed hose through the left back side of the unit. With pliers move the hose clamp and with some force of twisting and pulling remove the white feed line. Found that the outlet side of the valve was cracked. Replaced the valve. Turned on water Plugged in unit. Started a wash cycle, and checked for leaks. Allowed full cycle. Non were seen, no more error code. Reinstalled unit under kitchen counter.
