I have a WCVH6800J1WW GE washer that is 15 months old. When I try to start a washing cycle, the door locks, the machine spins in both directions several times and the machine begins running the drain pump. The drain pump runs for several minutes and the machine eventually stops. In "t02" the washer has an error code of E30 - Drain Problems What I've already done: 1) I pulled out the drain filter and cleaned it out (wasn't much in there) 2) Gone through the service mode and tried the tests t01 - Model ID is 04 t02 - Error Codes: E30, no other codes t03 - Software ID: cod - 500 EE - 28 Inv - 193 t04 - LEDs: normal t05 - Pump test: normal pumps for 60 seconds t06 - Pressure Switch Test: pump turns on momentarily, "E" comes on display, nothing else happens t07 - Thermistor/Heater Test: Did not try because service manual said main pressure switch must work t10 - Tumble test: normal t11 - Spin test: normal t12 - Dispenser test: normal I'm confused as to why the machine will fill with water in t12 (from both hot and cold) and drain it out appropriately, but won't function in t06 or normal wash cycles. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Jason

Water is not filling the tub as fast as it used to. Also, I'd like to check the door lock mechanism, but do not know how to remove the front top control panel as well??? Any help would be appreciated.
