Maytag Washer Model Mah9700aww With 'nf' Error Code

I have a Maytag front-load washer model mah9700aww.  I am sporadically getting an error code of "NF" when the washer is filling with water, plus the powder detergent in the dispenser doesn't get much water and the powder doesn't dissolve completely.  I have replaced the main water inlet valve and also cleaned out the hot water inlet valve.  The problem still happens.  Water pressure is good for both hot and cold.  Do I also need to replace the hot water inlet valve?  What else could be causing the problems?
