Possible Causes

Defective flow meter (if fitted), Blocked inlet filter, Low water pressure, Faulty wiring between flow meter and control board

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power and water supply before working on the inlet system.

  • 1. Check inlet filter and hose: Disconnect the inlet hose and clean the mesh filter at the Haier inlet valve. Ensure the hose is not kinked.
  • 2. Verify water pressure: Confirm strong flow at the kitchen tap. If pressure is low, consult a plumber.
  • 3. Inspect flow meter: Some Haier models use a flow meter integrated into the inlet assembly. Access it and check for debris or scale that could impede the turbine.
  • 4. Wiring check: Ensure the flow meter connector is secure and wires are intact from the meter to the main PCB.
  • 5. Replace faulty component: If the flow meter does not send pulses (requires specialized testing) or is physically damaged, replace the inlet/flow meter assembly.

Warning: Always check for leaks after reattaching water connections.
