Fisher & Paykel: water is not getting to the machine
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.

What to do when Water is not getting to the machine 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 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.
Check that both the hot and cold faucets behind the machine are fully open.
Confirm the cold faucet is connected to the cold valve on the machine and the hot faucet to the hot valve, not swapped.
Check the inlet hose filters at the faucet end for blockages and the hoses themselves for kinks.
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. 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.

A booking moves faster with three things: the message exactly as the display shows it, the model number from the carton or the rating plate, and the moment it first appeared. With those, the office can tell whether it is a setup step or a connection to put right, and send the part that fixes it.
