Error Code: LO FL Difficulty: Moderate
Problem: Low Flow of Water
How to Fix LO FL Error (Step-by-Step)
- First, verify that both the hot and cold water supply faucets behind the washer are turned on completely.
- Unplug the washer from the wall outlet. Turn off the water faucets.
- Unscrew the water inlet hoses from the back of the washer.
- Check the small metal filter screens inside the water inlet ports on the washer. If they are clogged with sediment, gently pull them out with needle-nose pliers and clean them thoroughly under a faucet.
- While the hoses are disconnected, place the ends in a bucket and turn the water faucets on to confirm you have strong water pressure from your home’s plumbing.
- Reconnect the hoses, ensuring they are tight and not kinked. Turn the water back on and plug the washer in.
- If the error continues after these steps, the water inlet valve assembly on the washer is likely defective and needs to be replaced.
- Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
