How to fix it

  1. Unplug, tip the washer back slightly, and check the base pan for water.
  2. Dry the pan thoroughly with towels and verify the float drops back down.
  3. Inspect the door bellows for tears, especially at the bottom fold.
  4. Open the cabinet and inspect all internal hoses and clamps.
  5. Replace the door boot, sump hose, or dispenser as required.
  6. Power back on; if error persists with dry pan, replace the AquaStop sensor.
