Getting an FH error about 1 minute into the cycle. Water seems to run continuously into the tub rather than off and on like it previously did. Read lots of posts on the internet which lead us to beleive it was a bad pressure switch so replaced that (and the hose to it) but problem is still happening. Ordered a flow meter last night but still feel it has something to do with the pressure switch. Any ideas?

Cathy,

Did you check the pump and the opening where the air dome hose attaches, for debris(lint, hard water deposit, detergent build up, etc.) ?

Check for loose wire connections, especially in the wire harness plug connector(s)at the new switch and control board.

I have a feeling, that's where you'll find your problem.

Good Luck,
:cool: :cool: :cool:

Yes, my husband did check the pump and only found two dimes and we have also made sure everything was pushed in tight on the CCU.

Well then,

If you're sure everything is clean, no deposits in the pump, the new air dome hose is not twisted or kinked,

That doesn't leave much to check.

Does your husband have a multi meter, so he can check for loose or broken wires, and circuits from the new pressure switch ?

He'll also need to check the connections and wires at the flow meter.

If all checks OK, you need to consider a new CCU (main control board), but that should be the last resort.
