Possible Causes

Incorrect pressure switch signal, blocked pressure hose, faulty pressure switch, control board miscalibration

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect power and shut off water supply if overfilling is suspected.

Step-by-step checks:

  • Inspect and clear pressure system: As with F05/F10, clean the air dome and hose, and test the pressure switch.
  • Check for siphoning: Ensure the drain hose is installed at the correct height and not causing water to siphon out, which can confuse level sensing.

When to replace: Replace a faulty pressure switch or damaged hose. If the system is mechanically sound but F27 persists, the main control board may require replacement.
