Is the watertap closed???
SOURCE: whirlpool/cabrio washer reads error LF and will not fill machine with water.
The serial number has a two letter designation, the first is where it was assembled and the second is the year. A long fill error can be several items, we all need to know first, how full with water, is your supply low on pressure or do you have a drain hose inserted far enough to cause a siphon condition? You should hear a gurgle splash as it drains.

Sd is displayed when the machine/motor control,
by analyzing drag on the basket, detects a
suds-lock condition, and is steady on while the
control then runs a mini-clean out cycle. If the
clean out cycle is unable to correct the
over-sudsing problem, the cycle ends and Sd
flashes in the display. This may signify:
➔ Load is bunched or twisted around agitator.
➔ Excessive detergent usage.
➔ Basket cannot engage during drain step.
➔ Mechanical friction on drive mechanism,
not allowing basket to engage.

Great! It may be the water level control switch. So, where is it and how do you check it or fix it or replace it?

I also had this problem. After numerous restarts and troubleshooting I finally realized the problem....my floodsafe burst-proof supply hoses. They are equipped with a shut off valve which will activate if there is an "irregular" flow of water. I guess mine finally went bad. After resetting the valve in the hose several times, I simply replaced the hose with a standard reinforced hose and the washer worked perfectly.
SOURCE: I have a whirlpool Cabrio, what does LF error code
The LF error is a water supply fault. Both water supplies must be connected and fully opened. The inlet hoses and valves both have strainers that may need cleaning as this could obstruct the water flow and also check that you don't have any water leaks. The unit requires a minimum water pressure to operate so anything that could prevent the unit getting this pressure will cause this fault. Hope this helps you out!
