From Tech Sheet W13250981, p.33:

1.Check if water supply is connected and turned on; check for low water pressure or fill times longer than six minutes. Code may be cleared by power cycling the washer for 10 seconds or more. See TEST #2: Valves, page 13.

2.Measure the inlet valve coil resistance at the valve connector. Expected: 1,000 to 1,200 ohms per coil at room temperature.

3.Verify static water supply pressure at the inlet hose. Below 20 psi or fluctuating supply commonly triggers fill-timeout faults.
