Symptoms
Machine giving an IE error, even though inlet valves are functional.
Picture
Cause
Since the drain hose is too deep in the standpipe, water is being siphoned out of the
machine while it is added. Since the machine does not sense a change water level, it
assumes an inlet valve is malfunctioning, giving an IE error.
