Error Code: FL Difficulty: Moderate
Problem: Flood condition detected.
How to Fix FL Error (Step-by-Step)
- Unplug the washer and turn off the water supply lines.
- Check inside the base of the washer cabinet for any standing water and dry it up completely.
- Locate the water level pressure switch; it’s a small component with a thin air tube connected to it.
- Inspect the entire length of the air tube for kinks, blockages, or loose connections at the switch and the tub.
- If the tube is clear and properly connected, the pressure switch is likely defective.
- Disconnect the wire harness and air tube from the old switch, remove it, and install the new one.
- Reconnect the tube and wires, then restore power and water to test the washer.
- Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
