Manufacturers of washing machines are constantly working to improve their inventions, and one of the very important functions was the self-diagnostic function. It is very important for both masters and users because if there is a problem in the operation of the machine, the washing process stops, and the error code is displayed on the display.

2. Filling hose is clogged
3. There was a failure in the operation of the filling solenoid valve
4. The valve control triac in the central controller has failed.
Recommendations for the diagnosis and elimination:
1. Check the water pressure in the water supply. It may be necessary to contact plumbers;
2. Carefully inspect the filler hose for kinks or compression. Clean the inlet filter;
