How to Fix OF Error

This is a duplicate of the ‘OC’ overflow error. Unplug the washer immediately.
Manually drain any excess water from the tub via the emergency drain hose.
Locate the water level pressure sensor. Check the clear air tube connected to it for blockages or damage.
If the tube is fine, test the sensor with a multimeter (this is an advanced step) or assume it has failed.
Replace the water level sensor, reconnect the air tube and wire harness, and reassemble.
