The error code indicated the washer wasn't getting any water, although the basket was filling to an unusually high level. After checking the inlet hoses and their connections but without opening the top cover to see the actual water level pressure switch, I went ahead and ordered the part.

Over time, the movement of the drum... Read more

REPLACED ENTIRE WATER CONTROL SYSTEM. Being quite anal about my planning projects, I played a Youtube video about this job.
