My washer will not fill. The water is running into the washer however, the water just drains out of the machine. This happened once before when a moving company installed it. There was a simple fix for it. I just can not recall what it was.

Shannon

Answer Hello Shannon. It sounds like the unit is siphoning out the water in the unit. Check and make sure there is only 6" of drain hose in the drain pipe. Also, make sure the drain pipe is 36" off the floor in height. You will need to check and make sure the drain hose has an air gap going into the drain pipe. If it is air tight, it will siphon.

The washer will not stop running, it overflows. We changed the water valve and also the water level switch.

Wayne W for Model Number lat9205aam

Answer Wayne, You will want to check your pressure hose for kinks or for having a hole in it and also check the air dome. If these are clogged or if the pressure hose has hole in it then the unit will not stop filling.

Loud pounding noise when water entering tub? is the inlet valve?

Lonnie for Model Number eed4440wq0

Answer Lonnie, You will want to turn the water off to unit and check the water valve screens where the hoses connect to make sure that they are not clogged. If they are clogged it will cause a pounding noise when filling. Low water pressure is the usual cause for this problem. If the screens are not clogged then you would want to replace the water valve 285805.

Machine leaking in the center of the back inside the case. Ordered the pump relacement from you and installed it. The machine is still leaking. Today I notoiced it started leaking when it was filling. The hose at the fill spout is dry and there is no water on the outside of the back of the machine. The last time I opened it up there was no water marks showing except in the center of the bottom lip tray of the back wall of the unit. The drum is dry underneath. All hoses are dry and all connections are tight and dry. What now?

Cheryl for Model Number Whirlpool washer Imperial LA7800XS

Answer Cheryl, You will want to check the unit while it is running and see if the leaking is coming from the water valve or related hoses to the tub. Also look for cracks in the tub assembly.

Don't have the model number for the stack w/d. When water is filling, there is a loud squeal noise that goes away when I turn the cold water supply valve to allow less water through. What might be the problem?

Sparky

Answer Sparky, You will want to pull the hoses off the water valve and check to see if the water valve is clogged with debris in the screen. If so clean and reinstall hoses to test.

My Roper Washer fills and does not shut water off at set level, It over flows and will not stop unless you shut water off. I'm thinking it might be the Water Inlet Valve that is clogged, What do You think?
