Possible Cause / Solution

 

 

 

Water Leaks

valve.

 

• Replace the fill hoses every five years.

 

• Make sure drain receptacle is not clogged.

 

Check house plumbing.

 

• Laundry load may be oversudsing or overloaded. Use less detergent (or low-sudsing

 

 

detergent) and proper load sizes.

Wash load may be unbalanced. Open lid and redistribute the load.

 

• Make sure washer is level. Uneven leveling can cause vibration.

 

 

 

Load Is Too Wet

Wash load may be unbalanced. Open lid and redistribute the load.

 

• Load is too small. Add items to make full load.

 

• Make sure the correct spin speed is selected for the type of items being washed (if

 

 

option is available on your model).

 

 

 

Wrong Water Temperature

Make sure that the controls are properly set.

 

• Check fill hoses. Make sure hot faucet hose is connected to hot mixing valve (indicated

 

 

with “H” on the valve bracket) and cold faucet is connected to cold mixing valve (indicated

 

 

with “C” on the valve bracket).

 

• Make sure house water heater is adjusted properly.
