The old water assembly valve split on the bottom and started leaking.
After unplugging the washer I cut the water off. I took the water hoses off, then the back top panel using a phillips head screw driver. I then used a pair of pliers to take off the two hoses and clamps. I unplugged the electric connection on each solenoid, took out 5 screws replaced the part and did everything in reverse order. Problem solved. Thanks for the fast service on my order.

Water leaking into drum
Figured out how to remove the top door and the top panel that covered the solenoid bank. That was the hardest part. Swapping out the solenoid bank and the connector was easy. No more water leaking.

Dear sirs, when the tub begins the fill cycle there is a leak at the connection between the fill hose(cold) and inlet valve. The hose and washer are in good condition. Could the inlet valve be causing the leak? Thank you in lodi, ca

I need help trying to figure out what part I need for my washer. It continues to fill up with water and not stop. It flooded my wash room. I have to turn off the water to the washer to make it stop but only the cold water. Can you please help me? Thank you.
For model number WT1101CW
Hi Dessie, Thank you for the question. I suggest changing the valve assembly. Sounds like the cold port is stuck open and the valve will need to be replaced. Hope this helps!

My washing machine overflowed. The water is going into the tub even when the washer is off. I checked the solenoids on the water inlet valve, and all showed continuity. Could the inlet valve still be bad even if all solenoids showed continuity?
For model number WT1101cw
Hello Dan, thank you for your question. If the water is coming into the tub when the washer is off the valve would be the issue. It is possible that the valve testing is off. We would recommend starting the unit and unplugging it from the wall while it fills. If the water continues to come in, the valve needs to be replaced. I hope this helps.

Water will not shut off in the rinse cycle, even if I hit pause it still fills. Even with washer off water still fills. FYI I just replaced the water inlet valve assembly and it still does this. If you can help thanks
For model number WT1001CW
Hello Rick, Thank you for the question. If the new valve did not fix the issue, this could be a Pressure Switch Assembly Sensor issue. I looked up the part and it is listed as No Longer Available/Discontinued sorry. There are no part substitutions listed. My suggestion here would be to call the manufacturer and see if they can provide you with a substitution for these part numbers. Hope this helps!

Need to replace inlet valve but can’t remove top back panel to access the valve. I removed two screws but still won’t move. How do you remove this panel?
For model number WT1501CW
Hello John, thank you for your inquiry. We have found some relevant instructions for you to replace the inlet valve, part number PS3527446. They may not be of the exact same model, but they will help you with the installation. You may follow the following steps: unplug the power cord and shut off the water supply. Now use a Phillips-head screwdriver to unthread the screws securing the rear control panel. Lift the panel up to remove it. Next, detach the control housing and remove the hot and cold water supply lines from the inlet valve. Note the orientation of the wires connected to the valve, and then disconnect them. Next, release the retaining clamps securing the hoses to the valve and pull the hoses off. Remove the mounting screws securing the valve to the control base. Lift the old valve and pull it free of the dispenser assembly. We hope this information helps!

Hello Joe, thank you for your question. unfortunately, we do not currently have installation instructions for this particular part. However, I was able to find another video on our site that shows how to replace a similar valve. The appliance and valve may look different in the video to what you have but the installation should be very similar. I hope this helps!

Water is leaking from rear of washer while in use. I removed the back cover. It appears that there were 2 small clear water/tube lines that come out from the back of the tub - lower/middle area. One of the tubes is still attached (this tube travels up to the upper portion of the back of the unit), however the other tube is missing - appears to have broken off. Water is flowing out of this hole when the water turns on. I can not locate the other tube if there was one and cannot find where this tube may go. Any help would be appreciated.
For model number WT1201CW
Hi Mike, Thank you for the question. There is one tube that would lead up to the water lever/pressure switch and another tube that leads to the dispenser at the corner of the tub. Hope this helps!
