🌀 Panasonic washer displays A1 error (water inlet)

🔧 Troubleshooting Steps

1. Check the water supply valves are fully open (both hot and cold). Turn each valve 1/4 turn past the 'on' position
   ✓ Expected: Both valves fully open
2. Check the water inlet filter (at the hose connection point). Remove, clean, reinstall
   ✓ Expected: Filter clean
3. If A1 persists, check the inlet valve solenoid. Listen for the click when the washer starts. No click = solenoid not energizing
   ✓ Expected: Solenoid clicks, water flows
4. If the solenoid clicks but no water enters, measure 120V at the solenoid during the fill cycle. No voltage = control board issue
   ✓ Expected: 120V at solenoid
5. If voltage is present but the solenoid doesn't open, replace the inlet valve assembly
   ✓ Expected: New valve, A1 cleared
