Error Code: A1 Difficulty: Moderate
Problem: Water is missing or there is a lack of water supply leading to poor pressure or a blockage.
How to Fix A1 Error (Step-by-Step)
- First, ensure that the water supply to your dishwasher is turned on. The valve is typically located under your sink.
- Check the water inlet hose for any kinks or blockages that could be restricting water flow. Straighten the hose if necessary.
- Disconnect the power to the dishwasher at the circuit breaker for safety.
- Place a towel under the water inlet valve to catch any residual water.
- Using pliers, carefully disconnect the water inlet hose from the valve and inspect the valve’s filter screen for any debris. Clean the screen if it is clogged.
- If the issue persists after these steps, the water inlet valve may be faulty and require replacement.
- After performing these checks, reconnect the power and attempt to run a cycle to see if the error is resolved.
- Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
