My Maytag Bravos washer will only spin and drain cold water. When I do a load in hot water it stops before the spin cycle and won’t drain and give me a LF code. Any help will be appreciated. Washer is only a year old. I’ve checked all the hoses and there’s no clogs.
Jason Wilson, Error code LF is low fill. Your hot water isn’t flowing into the washer fast enough. It has to fill within a certain amount of time or it will go to the Error code. Easy fix. Unplug washer. Turn off hot water. Remove the hot water hose at the washer leaving the other end attached to your house plumbing. Hold the hose in a bucket and turn the water on, open the valve all the way. Fill up several buckets. Clean the screens inside the inlet valve on the washer. You should see the screens where the hose attaches to the washer. Pull them out with little screwdriver or pliers. Rinse them than put back in. Hand tighten the hose back on then use players to secure with a good turn. Turn water on. Plug washer in to outlet and turn in washer. If it’s still filling too slow and you get an error LF you’ll need to replace the water inlet valve.
Check to see if the hot water valve is fully open. There is a screen in the valve that can get filled with sediment.
