Possible Causes

Blocked pressure hose, faulty pressure switch, control board misinterpreting level, siphoning due to improper drain hose installation

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit before hose inspection.

  • Check drain hose height: Ensure the drain hose is installed at the correct height and not sealed tightly into the standpipe, which can cause siphoning.
  • Inspect pressure hose: Verify the hose from tub to pressure switch is clear and properly connected at both ends.
  • Replace pressure switch: If the hose is good but behavior persists, the pressure switch may be faulty and should be replaced.

When to call a technician: If the issue remains after these checks, the main control board may require professional diagnosis.
