Bubba January 23, 2023 for Model Number RTW4640YQ1 When the washer is set to cold/cold, it defaults to warm on the fill cycle. I assume it is doing the same on the rinse cycle (lid is locked during rinse cycle). Could this be the Valve, Part Number AP6023768? Thank you.
1 Answer Bubba, The unit is designed that if the water temperature drops below 70 degrees, the unit will turn on the hot water to keep it at 70. If this is not the case then this will most likely be the thermistor WPW10683603 which is part of the valve. Read More...
Ned March 12, 2022 for Model Number MVWC400XW4 When the wash temperature is set to cold, both hot and cold water are dispensed. I am not getting any error codes in the diagnostic process. Is it likely the water valve? Thanks.
1 Answer Ned, the washer will intermittently activate the hot water valve during a cold water wash to maintain a specific temperature. However, if the hot water is coming in continuously and not stopping until the water is up to the set level, the thermistor W10876654 on the valve would need to be tested for resistance. At room temperature, it should measure between 40K to 50K Ohms. If the thermistor tests good, the main control W10480274 would be the cause of failure. Read More...
Bill November 25, 2021 I have a Roper washer model rtw4640yq1. The rinse cycle does not fill with enough water. The wash cycle does. All other functions seem ok?
1 Answer Bill, Put the unit into a service diagnostic mode and see if there are any stored error codes. Also, check to make sure that the cold water screen on the water valve is not clogged. If there are no error codes and the screen is not clogged then the control board would be the likely problem. Read More...
Peter April 29, 2021 for Model Number 110.25102310 Hello, I have a Kenmore series 500 auto load sensing washer (no selection for small, med and large loads) that does not fill the basin with enough water for the clothes inside the washer. The water is on and the lines are unobstructed. what part would I need to replaced to correctly sense the load in the washer? Thank you!
1 Answer Peter, as this model is a High Efficiency model, it can be common for a little bit of the clothing to be exposed above the water fill line. However, if less than half of the clothes are above the water level, the water valve WPW10683603 would need to be checked to ensure that there is proper water flow from both the cold and the hot side. If there is, the failure would likely be in the pressure sensor built into the main control W10582044. Read More...
Ron October 24, 2020 for Model Number 11025132410 my washer is not getting hot water could this be a problem with the valve
1 Answer Ron,Obviously, make sure the hot water valve is turned on. You should check the screen of the hot water line. It is possibly filled with debris from the hot water tank sediment. Clean and retry, if no success you would have to replace the water valve. WPW10683603 Read More...

1 Answer Larry 1. Based on the mfg part number the bake element needed is WB44X5099 2. Based on your model the inlet valve needed is WPW10144820 Read More...
Jim Scheidel April 23, 2018 for Model Number 8TW4676BQO This washing machine came with the house. Apparently this washer has a sensor for the wash water temp settings. The warm water setting is more to the cold as there is no difference between the cold and warm setting. If I select hot (slow water flow same as cold flow) after it has flowed for awhile then both the hot and cold water comes on at a much higher flow for awhile and then will go back to hot at a lower flow. From what I have read is that if the warm water is set at a colder temp then what I would consider warm. It's a pain in the you know where to have to be manually selecting between warm and cold to get warm water to wash my work clothes. My older washer didn't have this problem. Can the sensor be removed so when I select warm I get a mixture of both hot and cold? If not I will definitely replace it with a washer that works like the one I left in our old house. When I select warm I want warm not what EPA or some other source may have mandated.
1 Answer Jim, Unfortunately the sensor cannot be removed from the unit. This unit will adjust the temperature of the water based on the setting and is no way to change this. Read More...
Scott January 14, 2018 for Model Number NTW4605EW0 Hi I’m looking for a replacement fill valve which may have been discountinued and replaced, but I’m not sure with what. The parts I find do not check to be compatible with the Model Checker, and when I use the link to search parts associated with that model, again, the Checker states the parts are not compatible. The original part number is W10776841 Rev A. What is the correct replacement for this part?
1 Answer Hello Scott, the manufacturer list water valve part number W11038689 as the correct replacement. Hope this helps! Read More...
Martin H November 17, 2017 for Model Number mod4850bw1 i am having difficulty removing in line filter screens as they seem to be clipped in. Tried pliers but something else is need to release filter. Washer is whirlpool and about 5 yrs old. the filters are nylon type.
1 Answer Martin, Unfortunately there would be no way to pull the screens out. You would want to just try to spray out the screens and use a toothbrush to clean out. Read More...
Tim October 28, 2017 for Model Number wtw4800xq4 Hot fill seems to work fine. It cycles from hot to warm. Warm setting seems to use cold only. Cold works fine. Also water drips from inside of unit at times when not in use. Any advise Thanks Tim
1 Answer Tim, The warm setting will dispense cold based on the water temperature coming into the unit but sounds like you may have an issue with the thermistor on the valve. Also with water dripping in then this will likely be the valve not fully seating and will require a new valve WPW10683603. Read More...
