    Turn the power off at the wall and wait 30 seconds. Turn power on at the wall. Wait for machine to turn itself off. Press and hold wash temperature down, press power button to enter diagnostics. at this time you should have the low water level LED lit. If it is not lit press water level down, now it should be on.
    If this does not cure the problem you will most likely have to replace the display board. #426022(X) or (R)

    Great thanks works like a dream , only problem if i unplug and plug it in again the lights flash again , The high water light stays on with the low is there a way to turn off the high ? is there a way to lock it into memory? or is that the board needing replacing ? i have tried 2 other boards (an Mw and a LW) and both give the same error Thanks

    Are you saying you still have the wash lights flashing with either the MW or the LW board installed?

    Hi , yes with MW and LW display boards same problem . I can cancel the flashing lights by going into diagnostics and turning on the low water led (high water led is on and can’t be turned off), this
    stops the flashing lights until i unplug from the wall and then need to go thru the same procedure again ,Thanks

    “Restart” is turned off. As it will not re-set by unplugging, try the following procedure:

    Plug in, power on. Press and hold “Regular”, then press “Advance”. Press “Water Level Down” to turn Restart on – the “Low Water” led will light. Power off and you should be ready to go.

    Why are you going into diagnostics? The procedure does not require it.
