Possible Causes

Stuck water inlet valve, Faulty water level sensor or float, Blocked level sensing tube, Control board not closing valve

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit and close the water supply valve immediately.

  • Inspect water level float: Locate the float in the reservoir or sump. Ensure it moves freely and is not obstructed by scale or debris.
  • Clean level sensor: If the model uses an electronic level sensor, clean its surfaces with a soft cloth.
  • Test inlet valve: With water supply off and hoses disconnected, check the valve for debris. If water continues to flow through the valve when de-energized, replace the valve.
  • Check control signals: If the valve is mechanically sound but remains energized too long, the control board or sensor input may be faulty and require replacement.
