Did you catch the machine overflowing ?
If yes did turning off the machine or unplugging it stop the flow of water coming in ?, then you have a bad water level sensor.
If turning off the machine or unplugging it did not stop the water flow and you had to shut off the water supply you have a bad inlet valve.
If you don't know which part caused the problem replace both the inlet valve and WL sensor, the service tech should know this.

Check the tube that goes to the pressure switch. They can plug up with debris and cause the machine to overflow. I came across this multiple times working in commercial laundry settings
Remove the tube and blow into it if air goes through that is not the problem but if it does not clean out the tube and re-attach. This may solve the problem and save the cost of replacing expensive parts. WK78 |
