Possible Causes
Leaking or disconnected pressure hose, Faulty pressure switch, Air leak in pressure chamber, Control board misreading level signal
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the washer before removing the top cover.
Step-by-step checks:
- Inspect pressure hose connections: Remove the top cover and verify the small hose is firmly attached to both the pressure switch and the tub/pressure chamber. Refit any loose connections and secure with clamps.
- Check for hose damage: Examine the hose for pinholes, cracks, or soft spots that could leak air. Replace if any damage is found.
- Test pressure switch operation: Disconnect the switch and test continuity across its terminals while applying gentle air pressure. If contacts do not change state, replace the switch.
- Control board check: If the pressure system is intact but E11 persists, the main PCB may be faulty and should be tested by a technician.
