    Thank you so much. Sears wanted to charge me $500 for this fix on a seven year old washer. With your video and a $45 valve part, I was able to fix my own washer. 64 year old woman not afraid of DYI. Thanks again

    My daughter has one of these horrible machines. We have cleaned the contacts on the control panel over and over. Finally bought a new used panel. Then it would start but gave the LF code. I thought it might have been the shutoff switch so we ordered one; should be here tomorrow. But now I watch this video….. if I accidentally bumped that hose off, I’m going to feel pretty stupid.

    The clear tube wasn't your problem. It's not a high pressure sensor. It's a tube that goes to the water level pressure switch on the circuit board. It would still fill with water if it wasn't connected. It would just overfill from not being connected.

    Thank you!! This was a major $$$ saver and absolutely worked! $25 and a bit of time and it’s fixed. Hardest part was finding the right socket in the tool drawer and then removing the top panel.
    I will warn everybody…be careful removing the panel as I did snap one plastic clip. Seems okay regardless, just a tad loose on the one side. Pull up and forward (to front of washer) rather than what I did pulling straight up.
    But thank you for posting this so much!!

    Great video and information. It just might be the valve that's not working any more. I'd love to have the service manual, but really don't want to take it apart for it. haha My diagnostics so far are... 000 locked, 001 nothing, 002 got hot water, 005 got cold water 006 & 007 nothing, not sure if they are anything, 008 drained, 012 spin, didn't work. I've even checked it plugged into another outlet in case it was low voltage. The high pressure tube looks like it is connected just fine. Next... I'm poppin the top off.

    I think my water level pressure switch needs to be replaced, but I don’t know how to get to the switch that the hose you reconnected is.
    My symptoms are that the water level doesn’t fill enough, but i replaced the valve and tested that there is no clogs in the hoses.

    Nice RO system from brs. I built mine myself but basically used their platform.
    I've recently been having issues with my washer/dryer combo (stackable) and I'm getting absolutely no water out of the cold water valve/tap and I'm only getting tap water temperature from the hot/red side. So I've concluded that since there were "repairs" done to the downstairs apartment recently, that I have no access to, someone messed something up somewhere. So I'm just going to run temporary lines to the machine itself where I know h/c water is coming from.

      Check that hose on the back to make sure it's not leaking or damaged. It literally controls the pressure out of the wall into the washer.
