Possible Solutions

Are you pressing and holding the Start button?

You may need to press and hold the start button for up to 3 seconds to engage the cycle.

Is the lid completely latched?

The lid must be completely closed and latched for the washer to operate.  

Did you receive an "LF"  or "F8E1" Error Code, or is the Spin or Wash light blinking?

If F8 E1 or LF (too long to fill) appears in the display, the washer is taking too long to fill or the washer is filling and draining.

It's possible the drain hose extends more than 4.5" (114 mm) into the standpipe. Check the plumbing for the correct drain hose installation. Use a drain hose form and attach securely to the drainpipe or tub. Do not tape over the drain opening. Any of these drain hose issues can cause the washer to siphon (fill and drain at the same time), and the washer never fills to the expected level. 

Either the F8E1 or the LF error codes may indicate that there is a problem with the water supply going to the washer. Please ensure that both inlet hoses are connected and that both hot and cold water supplies are turned on. This washer has sensors that detect the water supply and requires both hoses to have water going to the water valve. If it does not detect that both water supply hoses are turned on, the control detects a problem with the water pressure sensor. The lid will lock, and the machine will enter a pump-out mode for 8 minutes. 

Is the Control Set Correctly?

Ensure the selector knob is aligned with the desired cycle selection and the start button has been pressed.  The washer will not start if the selector is not placed on a cycle selection. Set the selector to the desired cycle, like Normal, and push the start button.
