Laurence H Greenwich , CT January 01, 2017 Appliance: Model GTWN4250D1WS Gtwn4250d1ws perfectemp auto temp control not working Opened the control panel to find a very useful service instructions sheet which explained the self-diagnosis mode. Ran that mode suspecting the ATC thermistor and indeed it showed a thermistor fault. The sheet explained how to dismantle the front and top covers to access the ATC probe - resistance measurement was only 1.2 kOhms at room temp (should be 47 kOhms). Ordered ATC probe from this site for GTWN4250D0WS (slightly different model but looked identical). Arrived next day - fantastic service! Installed and Perfectemp now working (previously on the cooler settings only cold water was delivered, no hot added). Now Perfectemp mixes hot and cold on all but tap cold setting - measured temps - some were a little low but within spec. Given the rather crude way the system works the temps are never going to be exact. In my searching I also found this service manual which was very informative including giving the theoretical target temps: http://www.applianceaid.com/pdf/WPRE6150manual.pdf Read More... 12 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 30-60 minutes Tools: Socket Set
Randall A Madison , MS April 15, 2022 Funnel shower head hose was cracked and leaking,.and the sensor probe was rusted. The Youtube videos made the process much easier to tear down the washing machine to replace these parts. These parts were easy to replace once the outside lid and control panel were removed. The initial component replaced was the hot/cold valve. It was leaking causing a continuous drip into the bowl. The Valve is attached to the funnel shower head asm. Best to replace all three parts at the same time or you may also create a leaking funnel shower head hose while replacing the hot/cold valve.

Mike B Ann Arbor , MI January 03, 2017 Appliance: Model GE GTWN4250M1WS Washing maching surging when using any level of hot water on fill cycle After checking the water valve with a volt meter and checking the screen/filters on the intakes, I deduced the temp sensor could be the culprit. Ended up ordering and replacing the probe sensor ATC (temperature sensor). Okay now. Read More... Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 30-60 minutes Tools: Screwdrivers, Socket Set
