John M Commerce , TX April 05, 2014 The mixing valve that the water hoses attach to had frozen and broken. It was really easy to fix. I just took a screw driver and gently pried up on the top of the clothes washer to open up the top. Then the mixing valve was easy to access. I removed the two screws holding and unplugged the the wires. And pulled the old one free. Then reversed the process to install the old one. Less than thirty minutes start to finish.

Amanda P Lincolnton , NC May 16, 2016 No cold water allowed into washer All i had to do was replace the water inlet valve. This was very easy and fixed the problem right away. My only problem was that i missed putting the black washer tips onto the new part before I put it on the washer. You have to take the old tips from the old part and put them on the new one. Wasn't a big deal just caused a little extra work having to take the part off and on.

The job wasn't as easy as it was portrayed in the video but overall it wasn't hard. I needed the type of screwdriver that holds screws, didn't have one but was able to use scotch tape successfully.
