Hi, I'm new to the site and have encountered an "LF" on our Top Loading HE 600s series model number 110.27132411. I figured out through YouTube how to enter the diagnostics mode ( wash, soil, and spin buttons three times ) and found that there was no hot water flowing through the water inlet valve and using a multimeter, it seems that voltage is being applied and the machine appears to work properly on cold setting, so I have subsequently ordered the water inlet valve.

Since I don't have a service manual, I don't know what the tests are by number, eg. 00= top lock. I did notice that while going through the tests, 3 dashes came up on the screen on some tests, so I assumed that the machine is not equipped for those tests. Since I don't have a service manual, I can't interpret what the tests are exactly. If possible can anybody supply a list of the diagnostic test code definitions? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks T.

encountered an "LF"

LF suggests a Long Fill issue. “LF” is displayed when the water level does not change for a period of time OR water is present but the control does not detect the water level changing.

Since I don't have a service manual, I don't know what the tests are by number

There is a 'tech sheet' inside the machine somewhere. Here is a PDF copy of it describing the test levels.

I can't thank you enough Dan. It's a pain being able to do something and not knowing exactly what you are doing. LOL. Again I can't thank you enough. T.
