(Pre Wash Valve, Cold Water Valve, Bleach Water Valve, Softener dispenses using Cold & Bleach Water Valve, and Hot Water Valve.) • Check if water taps are turned on fully. • Check Water Valves and Water Level Sensor (Refer to PCB Connector Check) • Check if there is any kink in inlet hoses. • Check if inlet screens are clogged up. • Check if water has enough pressure. If so, find out its contributors. • Check if there is any frozen area in the unit (Drain Hose, etc) • Measure the resistance of Water Valve Coil. (It should read 1.18K ohms. Check Pin#1 of CN2 and PIN#1,2,7,8,9 of CN3) • Check Pressure S/W and PCB for loose connections. (Refer to PCB Connector Check.) Tub Full of Suds • Go to "Will Not Drain" and "Will Not Spin" and check the draining. • Check PCB and Drain Pump for any loose wire connection. • Perform Quick Test Mode or Board Output Test to drain. • Use HE (High-Efficiency) or low sudsing detergent specially formulated for front load washers. • Reduce the amount of detergent for that specific load size and soil level. Keep in mind that towel creates more suds generally. • Reduce the amount of detergent when water is soft, or laundry is small or lightly soiled. • Do one more washing cycle with cold water and a table spoon of salt without detergent. 16 WF405ATP-03144A_EN.indd 16 2012-03-02 �� 9:28:50
