Possible Causes
Stuck mechanical float in sump, Faulty electronic water level sensor, Blocked drain in sump, Wiring issue between sensor and control board
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Disconnect power and close the water supply before opening the machine.
- Access the water sump: Remove the front panel and ice bin if necessary to reach the water reservoir or sump area.
- Inspect the float: If your Fagor model uses a float switch, move it up and down by hand. It should move freely without sticking. Clean mineral deposits or slime with warm water and a soft brush.
- Clean the sump and drain: Remove any debris from the sump. Ensure the drain hole is clear so excess water can exit properly.
- Check sensor wiring: For electronic level sensors, verify the wiring harness is firmly connected to both the sensor and the control board. Look for corrosion on connectors.
- Test the float switch: Use a multimeter to check continuity while moving the float. Replace the switch if it does not change state.
After cleaning and repairs, restore power and run a test cycle to confirm the water level stabilizes correctly.
