What it means
Detects No Water Entering Machine or No Pressure Switch Trip.
How to fix it
- Select 'cancel' twice to clear this code. If there is NO water in the unit, make sure the valves are turned on all the way. Check for plugged or kinked inlet hoses, as well as plugged screens in the inlet valves. Verify that the inlet valve is operational. If there is water in the unit, verify the drain pump is working and the pressure switch hose is in good condition and properly connected. Make sure there is not a siphon problem and check all hoses for possible leaks. Unplug the unit and disconnect the power to check all wire harness connections to the inlet valve, pressure switch, drain pump, flow meter, and Central Control Unit (CCU). Reconnect the unit and power to verify the pressure switch is operational, as well as the flow meter (blow air through the flow meter and measure resistance). Check CCU is also operational by performing a diagnostic test or any cycle. Replace failed component.
