The washer can detect hot and cold inlet hoses connected backward and shows HO SE until they are swapped; reversed lines are also listed as a cause of long-fill and long-drain codes. Source: Electrolux - Front loading washer Error Code HO SE reversed hose detection
Water level is monitored by a pressure sensor, which raises E35 when it reads an overfill condition. Source: Electrolux - Front loading washer Error Code E35 pressure sensor indicates water overfill

Florida's construction licensing guidance says that paid work such as installing a dishwasher connected to drinking water or replacing a water heater requires a licensed contractor, and that a local business tax receipt or certificate of competency may also apply; it does not describe a separate state appliance repair license.
