Jason W Fishers , IN February 23, 2019 Appliance: Whirlpool Washer WTW5640XW0 Hot water would not stop filling up with hot water water valve Unplugged the washer. Turn off the water. Disconnect the water to the back of the washer. Take off the top back panel, 5 screws. Unscrewed the hot water valve and pulled it out. Disconnect the wire or power supply. Remember which side was up of the wires as you will have to plug the new one in. This was a slightly tough but I just needed to power through as I didn’t find a safety lock. Pull the value out. Insert the new valve and reverse the steps. I didn’t know this but it will take 2-3 minutes or more for the washing machine to start filling up with water after the repair if you have a self sensing washing machine.
