Joe September 28, 2021 for Model Number MVWB765FC4 My Maytag washer started having and issue today, less than 2 years old and barely used. I start a cycle as normal, I hear a click, the tub spins a little, then the door locks and the red light is on showing it's locked. Then when it's in the sensing stage I hear sort of a humming sound when the water should be filling. I'm guessing it's this fill valve and not the pump. I was thinking pump because I would usually hear the pump drain for a few seconds then the water starts to fill.
1 Answer Joe, I would check and determine if it is the valve or the pump that is humming. If it is the inlet valve humming with no water flow then check the screens to see if they are stopped up. Read More...
Jon September 22, 2021 for Model Number MVWB835DW0 Had a leak from the valve area. It appeared to be from the area where the valve connects to the machine. The black rubber fittings are in poor shape. I swapped them around and re-seated the valve, and it stopped leaking -- but I may have just delayed the inevitable. Any chance you sell just the black rubber seals rather than the entire valve?
1 Answer Jon, unfortunately, the manufacturer does not provide the seals separately from the valve W11165546. Read More...
Crane August 20, 2021 for Model Number MVW8765FW1 KEEP GETTING THE "LF" DURING WASH CYCLE. HAPPENS ABOUT THE MID CYCLE OF A WASH. HOW TO REPAIR?
1 Answer Hello Crane, the LF code refers to slow water fill into the washtub, if the drain hose is installed correctly and water is not siphoning out, the hot-cold water supply is fully open then replace the washer's inlet water valve assembly W11165546. Read More...
Mike May 11, 2021 for Model Number MVWB835DW4 Washer will not stop filling. The only way to stop it from filling is to shut off the water valves. Could this be the inlet valve assembly?
1 Answer Mike, Thanks for the question!!! It is most likely your valve [AP628446] has failed. You can verify this by checking for voltage at the valve connections. When the washer is off you should have no voltage at the valve, if you do have voltage, it would be a failed relay on the control W11400681 or a short somewhere in the wiring W11193817. Read More...
Brian April 03, 2021 for Model Number esterberg@gmail.com Maytag Washer MVWB765FW3 - not getting water. It worked for 2 years, nothing moved or changed. Went away ~4weeks and return to find the machine senses and locks but will not fill. I do hear an electrical hum/buzz when it sounds like it is trying to fill w/water, but getting barely a trickle of cold. I checked all the usual suspects, water supply pressure is good, inlet valve screens are not clogged, lid locks normally, etc. Question, if the water control valve has failed, would hot and cold both go at the same time? I'm reluctant to change the valve only to find out I really needed a control board. Thanks for your advice.
1 Answer Brian, Check the outlet side of the water inlet valve to see if the water is getting through the valve, based on the information provided it sounds like a valve issue (would need to check to be sure). Read More...

Scott S March 05, 2020 for Model Number wtw7500gw0 Machine is adding hot water during rinse cycle. Cold water selected.
1 Answer Scott, You will want to test the thermistor on the unit and if the thermistor checks ok then this will be a faulty control board. Read More...
1 Answer Sue, the inlet valve screens are built into the inlet valve. You can purchase additional screens that take the place of the original washers, the part number for the washer screens are 285452A Read More...
Bravo September 03, 2019 for Model Number Whirlpool cabrio wtw8500dc1 Valve in need of replacement. I can not for the life of me figure out how to get the top cover off to get to the valve. I'm sure it's an easy hidden fastener. I've found no videos for my model. Part number is w11165546( valve)
1 Answer Hello Bravo, start by removing the two 1/4" hex head scews at the top rear of the console, then using a putty knife , at the front lower sides of the console, lift the corner slightly and slide the putty knife under the console and depress the clip and lift up on the console on that side ,do same on other side and rotate the console up and you can then access the water valve.

Eddie February 14, 2019 for Model Number MVWB765FW How can I adjust how much water goes into the machine ?
1 Answer Eddie, there should be a deep fill selection on your washer. This option would be the only way to adjust the water level as the control is programmed to only allow a certain amount of water in depending on the options selected. Read More...
