NF indicates no water flow. This could mean that the incoming water valves were shut-off, the incoming water flow is low, or that the washer didn't detect the water flow into the washer correctly. If the drain hose is too low, the washer could fill and drain simultaneously. This can also cause the problem.

First if the washer is not getting any water, then check your shut-off valves and the hoses. Disconnect the hoses from the washer and place a bucket under them. Check the flow by turning on each valve for a bit. Clean or replace the filters at the shut-off valves and in the washer. Consider replacing the hoses. Some anti-flood hoses will reduce the water flow if they detect leaks. Make sure that the hoses are not kinked. If the water flow is good at the shut-off valves, then the inlet valve may have failed in the closed position.

If water is filling the washer, then the problem is in the water flow detection system. This could indicate the small reed switch is damaged, the air tube to the reed switch is clogged or that tube has a hole in it. Some washers check for fill by the change in the drum weight. This signal may not be reaching the control unit due to a problem with the sensor or the wiring.

If the washer is filling and draining, pull your drain hose up. It is below the washer fill level. This creates a vacuum that will drain the washer.

I hope this helps.

nF means that washer tried to fill but was unsuccessful. Water supply valves needs to be fully open. Lines may be kinked or screen by the hose hookup at the washer end may be restricting flow. Check to ensure the screens are cleaned by removing hose and pull screens and clean them then try the washer again

I have an "nf" code on my Samsung VRT front loader washing machine?

The "NF" code usually means that the washer has detected no incoming water flow.

Since you have water flowing into the machine, then the pressure switch system that detects the water level is faulty. The most common issue is a clog in the air tube that connects to the pressure switch. This can usually be cleared by blowing into the tube after disconnecting it from the pressure switch. (Unplug the washer before attempting this.)

After that, you need to check the resistance across the pressure switch and the wiring up to the control board. The control board could also have a fault. There is usually a tech sheet in the washer near the control board with the expected resistance values at these points.

Please add a comment with the washer model number if you'd like me to search for the parts list and diagrams. I hope this helps.

Can I get a list of error code and what they mean and how to fix. I keep getting nF as an error. What does this mean?

It means 'not filling'. So either nor or both of your water lines are turned off or just barely open, or the filter screens on your hose washers are clogged. Clean/clear them, or check water flow and you should be good to go.

Error code of NF (no fill) on samsung top load washer (WA422PRHDWR/AA) even after checking lines for restrictions and ensuring clean line filters (red and blue). Now, when it does work, it will only do a...

Put the temp select switch on HOT, start machine. If water comes out check the flow amount. If no water flow, replace inlet water valve. If there is water flow switch to COLD, start machine. If water comes out check the flow amount should be approximately equal or slightly more than flow on HOT. If no water flow, replace inlet water valve. Move selector to WARM, start machine. Now there should be twice the flow of water than there was with HOT and COLD temps. I suspect it is the HOT side of inlet water valve that has failed because machines usually rinse with COLD water.

VRT with a nf message.

if water flow is OK from the supply, remove the top cover and check the pressure hose that runs from the tub to the pressure sensor. They have a tendency to come loose on these machines. That is what my problem was...Always unplug power before removing covers...
