Unbalanced or overloaded drum, Restricted water inlet or drain, Faulty sensor feedback (pressure or temperature), Control algorithm compensating for conditions

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit before internal inspection.

  • 1. Avoid overloading: Reduce load size and distribute items evenly.
  • 2. Ensure proper fill and drain: Confirm that the unit fills quickly and drains fully. Clean inlet screens and pump filter if needed.
  • 3. Use appropriate cycles: Select cycles that match fabric type and soil level to reduce auto-adjustments.
  • 4. If behavior is extreme: Inspect pressure sensor and thermistors for proper operation as described in related sections.
