Error Code: CHECK WATER LIGHT Difficulty: Easy
Problem: Indicates a problem with the water supply, such as a blockage or the tap being turned off.
How to Fix CHECK WATER LIGHT Error (Step-by-Step)
- First, locate the water supply valve for your dishwasher, which is typically found in the cabinet under the kitchen sink.
- Check the valve to ensure it is in the fully open position. The handle should be parallel to the water pipe.
- Inspect the water inlet hose that runs from the valve to the dishwasher. Look for any sharp kinks or bends that could be restricting water flow.
- Gently straighten any kinks you find in the hose to allow water to pass through freely.
- If the valve is open and the hose is straight, turn off the water supply valve completely.
- Place a towel under the hose connection at the valve and carefully unscrew the hose.
- Look inside the connection for a small screen filter. If it is clogged with sediment, gently remove it and rinse it clean under a faucet before reinstalling it and reattaching the hose.
- Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
