IE error mostly means not filling completely with water or very slow fill

wich is connecting with inlet hose & inlet valve,,back of the machine,,thre is one filter in side the valve, remove &clean it,,pls

Hook a temp hose up to it, put it in water and see which way it flows. The intake is then connected to the bottom output from the pool.

An FH error usually means low water flow into the washer. This can be caused by debris in the filters between the intake hoses and the washer, closed water valves, low water pressure or a problem with the system that checks the water flow.

Some intake hoses when they detect a leak will seal themselves. So you may want to replace them. Shut off the water valves and remove the hoses from the washer. Check the filters for debris. With a bucket under the hoses, open the valves and check the rate of water flow. You may want to check the filters on the valve side of the intake hoses after turning the valves to off again. If water flows into the washer and then into the drain, reset the drain hose. The outlet of the hose should be above the water level in the washer. Otherwise, the water will suction out of the unit.

If these parts are fine and there is still no water flowing into the machine, the intake valve is faulty.

If you are getting the error when the washer is full of water, it's the pressure switch or the flow meter. In a few cases, the cause is actually damage to the air hoses connected to the pressure switch. If one of these thin tubes is leaking, the pressure switch will not work properly.

I hope this helps.

There is a problem with the water supply. This could be a symptom of kinked hoses, clogged filters in the intake valve or low water pressure.

Turn off the water shut-off valves and disconnect the hoses from the washer and then the shut-off valves. Place a bucket under the hoses to catch any water that drains out of the hoses. Check the filters both on the washer and at the shut-off side of the hoses. Sometimes, you need to use needle-nose pliers to pull out the filters from the intake on the washer. Make sure that the hoses are not kinked when you reinstall them. You may want to replace the hoses. There are some hoses that will seal themselves if they detect a leak. This will slow the water flow to the washer.

While you have the hoses off the washer's intake, test the water pressure by measuring the water flow into your bucket when you open the valves.

Also make sure that the washer discharge hose is not below the washer's water level for your load size. This leads to the water flowing in and then out of the washer before it fills the machine.

I hope this helps.

Remove the water line from the INLET valve and start the machine , if there is no proper flow of water then the inlet vavle is not working to open , the filter on the vavle is clogged or the inlet filter is blocked. Also check the voltage on the inlet valve to make sure that the controller unit is outputting correct voltage.
If not replace filter , valve to ensure that the drum get best flow for filling.

First is water coming into the location and is the valve to the dishwasher open? Next check if the intake hose is bent or squashed. Release the kink blocking water flow.

There is a filter in the intake hose that can get blocked by debris. Turn off the water (at the supply valve) then disconnect the intake hose. Clean the filter. Reconnect the hose and turn the water back on. Check for leaks.

The manual for the unit is available here: http://kitchen.manualsonline.com/manuals/mfg/electrolux/esi_602.html .

I hope this helps.

Either the intake valve is not sealing like it should, or the rings are worn, and crankcase vent is dumping the pressure into the carburetor.
