Fisher & Paykel's troubleshooting chart lists closed faucets, a hot line connected to the cold valve (or no connection to the cold valve at all), and blocked inlet hose filters as the standard causes of this indicator, all of them installation details rather than a failed valve. Fisher & Paykel appliance display What to do when Water is not getting to the machine shows on the appliance ### Kind of code Water 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. ### Usually leads to Water supply and shutoff connection New supply lines from a working quarter-turn stop to each water appliance, tested under pressure. ### Shows up as New Appliance Not Level: Rocking Cabinets and Uneven Gaps A new appliance not level rocks when pressed at a corner, sits out of line with the counter, or shows a gap that widens from one side to the other. ### Make Fisher & Paykel Fisher & Paykel installs include the DishDrawer, integrated column refrigeration, gas and induction cooking, and a laundry pair, each with its own cutout rules. ### Source Fisher & Paykel WH2424P2 front-load washer user guide Confirmed on Fisher & Paykel's WH2424P2 front-load washer manual troubleshooting chart. ## Before you book, in this order. Each step comes from Fisher & Paykel's own guidance for Water is not getting to the machine on its appliances. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit. 01 Check that both the hot and cold faucets behind the machine are fully open. 02 Confirm the cold faucet is connected to the cold valve on the machine and the hot faucet to the hot valve, not swapped. 03 Check the inlet hose filters at the faucet end for blockages and the hoses themselves for kinks. 04 If water still is not reaching the machine with all of this confirmed, book a visit. ### Still there? It usually turns into [water supply and shutoff connection](https://applianceinstallation.center/services/water-supply-and-shutoff-connection/). Book with the code and the model number. ### What not to do This indicator is about the supply reaching the machine, not about a failed water valve inside it; a machine that fills fine once the hose routing and faucets are corrected does not need a part replaced. ## What you may notice with it.

Check that both the hot and cold faucets behind the machine are fully open. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### Why won't a newly installed Fisher & Paykel laundry machine fill with water? The manual's own chart puts closed faucets and swapped hot/cold hose connections first, both easy installation mistakes to check before assuming the machine's water valve has failed. ### Can a blocked inlet filter stop a Fisher & Paykel laundry machine from filling? Yes, the chart lists blocked hose filters at the faucet end as a cause, and clearing them is a simple check before calling for service. ### Is a delay start setting the reason a Fisher & Paykel laundry machine seems to not fill? It can look that way; the chart also lists a delay start being set as a reason the fill has not started yet, which is worth ruling out alongside the water connections. --- **[Read on the site: Fisher & Paykel: water is not getting to the machine](https://applianceinstallation.center/error-codes/fisher-and-paykel-water-not-getting-to-the-machine/)** **[Book a visit with ApplianceInstallation.center](https://applianceinstallation.center/schedule/)**
