Hi.
I have an issue with my washing machine. The pressure seems to be real bad. So far I have taken off the hoses from the pipe that inlets to the washing machine. When I do this the pressure seems fine but as soon as I plug it back into the inlet pipe it drizzles out the exit point of the pipe. Your Help would be muchly appreciated.
Thanks
I have taken out the dispenser box it is not blocked. It is something to do with the water pressure. As said I test the jets they are fine. Than I plug into the dispenser box and it dribbles out. Now this is the weird part- I put the jet into the dispenser box while its shooting out water fine than it start to dribble out the box i than took the jet out again and found that the jets are now just dribbling out. Your help is very very appreciated.I have taken out the dispenser box it is not blocked. It is something to do with the water pressure. As said I test the jets they are fine.

Would you be able to tell me what the dispenser box is? When I get home tonight I will take a picture of what I am assuming it is and post you a link. I would really like to get to the bottom of this issue as im sick of the laundry matt lol. Do you have an email or a IM account that I may be able to speak to you regarding this will give me time to speak to you than troubleshoot on the machine.

The problem is probably that although you have a good water flow you have low pressure, the is nothing other than a blocked valve or dispensor box than can cause this problem on the machine.

Yes, a faulty water level pressure sensor can cause a washing machine to get stuck at the rinsing cycle and not drain. The water level pressure sensor is responsible for detecting the water level in the washing machine tub and signaling the control board to activate the drain pump to remove the water. If the pressure sensor is faulty and cannot detect the water level, it may not signal the control board to activate the drain pump, causing the washing machine to get stuck in the rinsing cycle.
To troubleshoot this issue, you can try the following steps:
Turn off the washing machine and unplug it from the power source.
Locate the water level pressure sensor, which is typically located on the side of the washing machine tub.
Check the wiring and connections to make sure they are secure and not damaged.
Use a multimeter to test the continuity of the water level pressure sensor. If the sensor is faulty, it will need to be replaced.
If the sensor appears to be working properly, check the drain pump and hoses for clogs or obstructions.
Reconnect the washing machine and run a cycle to see if the issue has been resolved.
If you are unsure about performing any of these steps or if the issue persists, it is recommended to contact a qualified technician for assistance.
If the washer won't fill you'll need to check for the water
inlet hose, the water inlet valve and the pressure/water level switch assembly.
Inspect the inlet hose coming to the washer for any blockages. If the hose is
not clogged then check the water inlet valve for any clogs, if the water will
not even fill for few seconds then certainly the water inlet valve is bad and
should be replaced. You can also use a multimeter to check continuity on inlet
valve. If you don't get any value on the multimeter then you'll need to replace
the water inlet valve assembly. However, if the valve is fine then the
pressure/water level switch assembly should be replaced. Hope this helps...
Please post back if you need more information.
While the unit fills the air pressure is pushed up the hose to activate the pressure switch. Make sure there are no pin holes in the hose, check that hose is secure to air dome on tub. If the hose has no holes or air leaks the issue would have tobe the pressure switch.
Thanks for using FixYa. Error F 35 means Analog Pressure Sensor Failure- which means that there is a malfunction of the component detected by the Steamer Electronic Board.
1. Check that the pressure hose is fixed correctly. 2. Check that the air trap is not blocked. 3. Check that the hose is not blocked
If still the issue is not resolved then it is an issue with the water level pressure switch operation and there is a blockage in the air dome or pressure switch hose. The air dome is located on the back of the tub on the left hand side. If the pressure switch hose and the air dome are clear of any blockages, then there is an issue with the water level pressure switch. Please do rate the solution if the issue is resolved or else post a comment for further assistance. Thanks Rylee

If you pull the power to the machine and water continues to flow then the water inlet valve is stuck open. You will need to replace the water inlet valve.The Service manual will step you thru the process. FAV6800A/FAV9800A Service Manual for reference.Sears Parts Direct for reference. The water inlet valve is p/n 25001046 Substitution: 12002242 Water valve shop around for best price. Is this Cold water inlet valve issue? If so and you only do Cold water wash/rinse like me you could switch the fill hose connections from hot to cold to hot at the faucet. Turn the hot water faucet valve off and select Warm/Warm temp selection and you will be filling with cold water wash/rinse.Maybe that would hold you over until you replace the Water Inlet Valve assembly. You can check out your pressure switch transitions as I had this poster do for his issue at this link http://www.fixya.com/support/t5471295-washer_fills_water_begins_agitate_but His issue seems to be a definite stuck pressure switch not water inlet valve such as yours.Check to make sure your pressure switch is OK by watching the fill point transitions as I mention in the post. If you machine is a series 12 or above the Low and Mid fill pressure switch transitions will toggle at the same time.Series 12 and above us a 2 level pressure switch.Series 10 and 1 use a 3 level pressure switch. Good Luck………….. D*ick

Hi Thanks for using FixYa. Error F20 indicates no
water is entering in machine and/or the pressure switch trip was not detected.
To resolve this issue check the water supply has been turned on, then check the
water inlet valve for any clogs and clean it. If there is water in the unit
then check the drain pump and also verify that the pressure switch is working
fine. If the water inlet valve has gone bad then it should be replaced. Also
check the wire harness connections to the water inlet valve and pressure
switch. Please do rate the solution if the issue is resolved or post a
comment for further assistance. Thanks Rylee
