What Error 560186

What to do when Error 560186 shows on the applianceKind of codeWater supply and drain
The new appliance is reporting what it gets from the water connections behind it. A no-water or slow-fill message on the first fill usually means the supply valve is still closed or only half open, or the new line kinked when the unit slid back; a drain message means the drain hose is pinched, pushed too deep into the standpipe, or looped higher or lower than the installation instructions allow. Open the valve fully, straighten the hose, set it to the height the manual gives, and run the cycle again.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from Cove's own guidance for Error 560186 on its appliances. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Locate the water supply valve behind the cabinet and confirm it is fully open.
Check the supply line for a kink along its length, especially where it enters the cabinet space.
Run a short cycle to confirm water is now reaching the machine.
If the supply is open and the line is clear, book a visit.
Still there?
It usually turns into water supply and shutoff connection. Book with the code and the model number.
What not to do
This alert does not mean the machine's own inlet valve has failed. Cove's own fix is the supply valve and the line, both outside the appliance.
