Possible Causes

Blocked pressure chamber on tub, Clogged or split pressure hose, Faulty electronic pressure sensor, Loose connector at control module

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the appliance and close the water tap.

Step-by-step checks:

  • 1. Inspect pressure hose and chamber:
    • Locate the small hose from the tub to the pressure sensor.
    • Remove the hose and blow through it; if blocked, clean or replace.
    • Check the tub connection (pressure chamber) for soap scum buildup; clean carefully.
  • 2. Check the pressure sensor:
    • Ensure the connector is firmly seated and free of corrosion.
    • Measure sensor output if you have the service data; replace if readings are out of range.
  • 3. Wiring to control module:
    • Trace the harness from the sensor to the control board.
    • Look for pinched or broken wires; repair as needed.

When to call a technician: If the error persists after hose and sensor replacement, the control module may be faulty and should be checked by a professional.
