Fred August 18, 2017 for Model Number WTW57ESVW1 My washer starts agitating when it starts filling and then when the cycle ends, it starts filling again with about an inch of water.
1 Answer Hello Fred, This is most commonly caused by a bad temperature switch WPW10248240. Read More...
Gary S June 28, 2017 for Model Number MVWC6ESWW1 Drainage hose came out of the plumbing drain and water spewed all over the washer. Washer spins but will not take in water. Already changed the water inlet valve. What else could it be?
1 Answer Gary, The temperature switch WPW10248240 would be the most likely cause for this issue. Read More...
Mike May 06, 2017 for Model Number MVWC6ESWW1 Washer used to agitate when testing water level. No longer doing this and is fully filling the tub regardless of how much clothes are in it.
1 Answer Mike, This issue would most likely be caused by a faulty temperature switch WPW10248240. Read More...
Michael October 19, 2016 for Model Number WTW57ESVW1 I'm having a problem with my machine overfilling. It seems as though i need a new temp switch WPW10248240. We had a rodent get in there and chew into every hose so those have been replaced. The pressure hose seems to be fine, I can see water going into the hose from the dome but it fills on to the top now matter what size the load is. If the water never stops, does that effect the timer from moving to the wash cycle and agitating? If I manually turn the timer it will start agitating but with the water constantly running the timer doesn't advance. I don't want to replace more than necessary. I don't see any signs of wire damage. Also, will any same sized PVC tubing work for the air pressure hose? Thanks in advance!
1 Answer Hello Michael. WP353244 is the hose you need to use. As for the issue, it does sound like the switch needs to be replaced. Unless, your raising the lid during the cycle. If you do this, even in the fill cycle, the switch will reset and fill all the way to the top. This is the way the unit is designed. Read More...
Les September 13, 2016 for Model Number MVWC7ESWW0 Washer will not begin agitating after fill. Spin and all other cycles are working fine. Replaced agitator dogs, motor coupling, drive block, and clutch already. Still no luck could it be the water level switch or load temp switch?
1 Answer Les, The auto load sensing switch WPW10248240 could certainly be the cause of the unit not agitating after it finishes filling with water. Read More...
P.S. September 12, 2016 for Model Number MVWC6ESWW1 My washer will not fill with water. I changed the valve and this made no difference.What else can I check?
1 Answer Hello P.S. It sounds like you need to order and replace the temp switch WPW10248240 in the unit. Read More...
Mark G June 09, 2016 for Model Number KAWS700G I have 120 volts coming into the washer but no voltage at the temperature control switch? Mark
1 Answer Hello Mark. Make sure the lid switch is good and test the timer. It sounds like the timer may be bad and need to be replaced. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
Guptau March 24, 2016 for Model Number MVWC5ESXW0 Hi my Maytag washer stopped filling water. The inlet valves are working fine (I tested by directly connecting power). The timer seems to be working because the pins are working fine(I cleaned the contacts) and it completes the spin cycle. The washer does not do anything in the beginning when the fill cycle starts. I suspect the water temperature may be the problem but how can I confirm that the Water level and temp controller is faulty? Thank you for the help. USG.
1 Answer Guptau, If the timer and the water valve are good then the issue with the unit will be the auto temp switch WPW10248240. Read More...
Matt February 11, 2016 I have a top loading maytag centennial washer. It's fills for only a few seconds then stops. Then if it does fill it drains with its supposed to be agitating.
1 Answer Matt, We would need to have the model number of the unit but if the pressure hose connects to the temperature switch on this unit then that would be the most likely cause for the issue. Read More...
Phil G January 30, 2016 for Model Number 110.29822801 This is a Kenmore washing machine with auto water level sensing. It fills all the way to the top, no matter how large the load. It isn't spilling over, just filling to the maximum amount of water. I removed the water level and temperature controller air hose, and blew into it while the machine was filling, and it stops filling. This lead me to believe that it was the water inlet valve instead. I purchased a water inlet valve but that did not fix the problem. So now I guess I will buy a water level and temperature controller and try that. Any other ideas? Thanks.
1 Answer Phil, The auto sense switch WPW10248240 will be the most likely cause for the unit to fill all the way to the top of the unit before stopping. Read More...
