Possible Causes

Modern low-water design, Slightly restricted inlet, Incorrect user expectations, Pressure switch calibration drift

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: No internal work is needed unless a genuine underfill is confirmed.

Step-by-step checks:

  • Understand design: Many CDA washers use low water levels by design. If clothes are wet and washing properly, this may be normal.
  • Check fill time: If filling takes very long, clean inlet filters and verify water pressure.
  • Observe wash action: The drum should tumble clothes through the water. If clothes remain mostly dry, investigate E02/E17-type inlet issues.
