Amana Front Load Washer
Amana Front Load Washer Lo FL Error Code
What it means
Amana indicates Lo FL means the washer is not detecting the correct amount of incoming water.
Try this first
- Press Power if the control is unresponsive; the washer may run a drain routine for approximately 8 to 10 minutes.
- Wait until that drain routine finishes before attempting other washer functions.
- Make sure the Hot and Cold water valves are fully open and both inlet hoses are connected.
- Check the inlet hoses for kinks.
- Make sure the hot hose is connected to the hot valve and the cold hose to the cold valve.
- Inspect the water inlet screens for mineral buildup or debris.
- If an anti-flood device is installed, note that the manufacturer recommends a direct water-supply connection for optimum performance.
- Make sure the drain hose does not extend more than 4.5 inches (113 mm) into the drainpipe or laundry tub.
- Do not seal the drain hose into the drainpipe with tape; leave an air gap.
- Make sure the top of the standpipe is at least 39 inches (99 cm) above the floor.
