Symptom / Description

FAULT

The appliance (washing machine/dishwasher) does not fill with water or filling is extremely slow, and the program freezes.

TELEMETRY // LIVESIG: FAULT_DETECTED

Root Cause

ROOT CAUSE

A problem is detected on the water inlet circuit. Common causes are a closed water tap, kinked inlet hose, clogged solenoid valve filter, or faulty solenoid valve.

CIRCUIT // SUBSYSTEMLOGIC: ROOT_ISOLATED

Repair Instructions

UNLOCKED
1Check that the water tap is fully open and there is sufficient pressure. Make sure the inlet hose is not pinched or kinked. Unscrew the hose on the machine side and clean the filter. If the problem persists, test the solenoid valve.

1. Pre-Intervention Electrical Safety Protocols
  • !Electrical Safety Protocol: Disconnect electrical power before touching solenoid valve coils or Aquastop connectors.
  • !Firmly shut off the domc water supply tap before unscrewing the inlet hose fitting.
  • !Check safety base drip tray for accumulated water triggering the anti-flood polystyrene float switch.
3. Preliminary Mechanical & Visual Checks
  • Remove and clean sediment and sand particles from the 3/4" inlet hose metal mesh filter.
  • Verify domestic dynamic water pressure is between 1.0 and 10.0 bar (0.1 to 1.0 MPa).
  • Inspect outer Aquastop hose jacket for expansion, pinch damage, or internal leak reservoir triggering.
Perform these diagnostic steps before triggering AI Deep Search or replacing boards.Certified Workshop Routine
