This was very helpful, and the animated electrical diagrams were great info. I wish more people used these.
I just figured out why my washing machine would never fill up and it wasn't mentioned in the video. The problem was where the drain line was running there was not a bend going up then back down again so all the water was getting siphoned out as it was filling. That's why the drain line and water in box is higher on your wall
Thank you sm 😩 I knew that was the problem
How do you fix that?!?!
@@jessicaortiz491 if your washing machine is not filling up make sure the drain line is higher than the drum/barrel inside the washing machine. That’s what our problem was at the shop we could t figure out why it would not fill up with water until I pulled it out and realized someone had it running out at ground level
@@misskittygato4928 glad I could help I just seen your comment a year later lol
@@masonhoward8487 i have the same problem how can I solve that?
This was very helpful thank you
If the lid still opens after you've tried to start the cycle, check the lid locking safety feature. It's pretty easy to disable.
check also the hot cold water dial as this causes water filling problems .
My old Maytag dependable care machine had a blown 4 amp fuse behind the control panel, super easy fix. Not sure why it blew but I replaced it and it seems to be holding.
Where was the fuse located? I think I have the same issue
Very nice, you will be blessed by doing this.
very educational and AWESOME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Awesome, thank you for the guide /cheers ScrapBongo Liked
My Kenmore washer just stopped pouring warm,cool, cold water I bought the valve piece just waiting for it to arrive.
Update I received the piece and my washer is working better than ever.
Yo
Probably the timer. Fill it manually, with buckets of water, and see if it runs the cycle normally. If not, your timer is faulty.
My washer is trying to fill but something is cutting the water off...its trying to fill but it sounds like a machine gun its more like its pulsing water is coming out but very little and then it will fill fine? It's a whirlpool any help would be awesome thanks you
Good info. Too advanced for me. I don't have the technical skills or multi meter.
I was in your shoes but I promise a multi meter is way easier than you think. It’s prolly like 15 bucks at harbor freight. You just gotta make yourself do stuff you don’t think you can do so you can learn that you can actually do it.
My mabe top washer model# LMA 16400XBV filled up to the three load size level but not starting. What could prevent the washer from not starting
If you have a GE Hydrowave Washer the machine will not fill or run with the lid open or if the lid switch is bad. You can replace this switch for less than $20.
my front loader turns on did a wash fine earlier. now any cycle won't fill washer at all
My Roper Washing machine cycles back and forth between hot and cold water (1-2 minutes each) during the fill cycle when the "HOT" water setting is chosen. The result is the water in the filled tub is lukewarm at best. Does anybody know if there is a part or parts that determines the length of these cycles? I'd like to make the hot water come out longer and/or the cold come out shorter to result in true HOT water when the tub is filled. A capacitor maybe?
6 - Defective Water Temperature Switch
My 28 yr old Amana is having issues. I bought it used a few years ago and the cold water just trickles in. This was with a new hose, new screens and we checked the water pressure......all that's fine. Without using a tester or tearing into it, I eliminated the inlet valve as the problem by swapping the cold and hot hoses so the cold would run thru the hot side and vice versa. The cold trickled into the hot side. I only recently found it might be the timer. It has another issue too, but I'm on the fence about fix it or because of it's age, buy a new washer. It stops mid cycle and smoke comes up around the drum. I can let it rest an hour after it fills up and not do the super loads and it's fine. When it shuts down, it has to rest a few days and then it's fine! Is that also the timer?
Have a Whirlpool Cabrio Washer Model WTW6600SB2, I had a repairman replaced the tension robs and after he turn the washer, water flowed for a few seconds and stopped. He stated the control board was bad. I put a another control board in, started the machine, water flowed for a few seconds and stop. Cannot not determine the cause. Thought it might be the water pressure guage.
What about the most common and easiest fix... Without multi-meters and pulling parts... Check the hot and cold inlets to the machine and clean the scale out of the inline filters.
That’s also true
Wtf does that mean?
@@tacituskilgore5396 It means exactly what I said.
@@txbeachbum the scale out of the inline filters? What does that mean?
@@tacituskilgore5396 Inline filter scale (rust, dirt, minerals) meaning a filter between the incoming city water and the appliance. You are a moron.
Usually this is a timer problem. If you don't want to spend $$$ on parts or repair then disconnect the hose and fill the tube manually.
It helps a lot, we will buy parts only in your site.
What do you think it is? When I turn my washer on to fill a loud vibration noise is made as the water hoses shake and the water just drips in... you think it could be water inlet? It just recently happened and I have to use a bucket to fill up the washer lol
Could be. Either that connection ( the switch) or your screen/ filter is clogged. Check it when you take off the water hoses.
can i test the coils with a metal fork bc i don’t have that machine. if it gives me a zap it works??
Washing machines are high voltage appliances which could be dangerous. Multimeters are less than $15 and are worth the money saved. I'm not a washer machine professional, but that's my opinion on it
I have Kenmore 110G model number 82873820 won't fill runs straight threw on any cycle can anyone help me please
Washer went directly into agitate without filling.. Replaced temperature/fill switch. ( one with tube running to tub) Replaced switch. Saved over $600 for 'basic GE machine to replace Whirlpool.
Thank you...I have the same washer and mine was doing the same thing
I just bought a brand new Fridgidaire washer...it goes directly to agitate without filling...I am mighty irritated today...I sure hope they can fix it asap!!
@@1950harleycharley this just happened to me today. What was your machines problem?
I have been unable to find model number on my Kenmore elite heavy duty top load washer I have looked everywhere it's says that it's a 3 speed motor 6 speed combinations.
Under lid towards the back where the water goes into the tub.
my top loading Whirlpool WTW57ESVW wash machine will not fill with water....it won't fill on the hot or cold or warm water settings.....I have checked the hot and cold water lines and cleaned the inlet screens, but no luck .....what part should I replace ?...thanks
Timer.
Save $$$. Don't replace anything. Just fill it manually with the hose or buckets.
How do I know I have a faulty timer?
Stuart D .... your not disciplining your wife hard enough.
very helpful

We hope that you have a great day!
I suspect my electronic water level switch is at fault. The washer won’t fill. Has voltage to the timer and has a new solenoid valve. Level control is wpw10248240
My washer begins to fill when it is on the wash cycle. But it stops after a while. The water isn't staying in the tub to start washing. It just stops after a while. Any suggestions?
my kenmore top loading washer model no 110.2464.2300 goes direcrly to wash without giving me any water
May I ask what your final culprit was? I have the exact same problem.
Thanks in advance.
That sounds like a control board failure
How do I figure out my exact model number on my machine?
Please click here for finding your model number: th-cam.com/video/Za2Q_VI41-w/w-d-xo.html
It's located on the machine. Mine is on the back of the machine behind control panel. Just look for the metal plate or sticker with the model and serial numbers.
Thanks for the video, I think the a burned out fuse leading to the water filling meter should be added to the options... (I'm a lawyer not a mechanic so excuse my language:)
That's what solved the problem on my mid-90's Maytag LAT8404.
This video left out the most obvious, a clogged screen on either the cold or the hot water input near the back of the washer. Peace
It don't even make a noise, like it is working. Was filling up, then just stopped.
No refunds if they tell you wrong solution. Buy part somewhere else.
water goes in and just goes through...can hear it draining
as it is going in, there fore no "filling"...just running through :/ :/
Did you work out what was wrong? The same goes for mine.
Did you figure it out? Mines is doing this?
Mine is also doing this :/ :/
Test the water valves. Most should have about 1.3-1.6 K ohms. If not any continuity, it could also fault mechanically in the plungers. If not lid switch, try replacing the water valves. Cheap try to perform.
MY WASHER FILLED BUT THEN DID NOT AGITATE
If washing machine want fill up to wash but will fill up to rinse
Make sure your water lines are hooked up to the right inlet..hot to hot and cold to cold. If they're backwards it can cause the problem you're having.
Same problem
For me it was dirt in the line that I was able to flush out
Smh
Dear sir, I have a frigidaire washing machine that will not fill with hot or cold water I have replaced the water valve where the water comes in-I have replaced a $200 timmer that did not fix it so it moved on to the pressure switch- I blew into the line going down to the bottom it is clear so I blew on the valve itself and I can here a valve or reed opening and closing What can I try next-i am use a backup washer and it works fine-so there is no water pressure problem-I put a meter on the water valve inlet and it makes a beeping noise on the hot and cold solenoids-so I put the meter on the pressure switch and it beeps as well-the only thing I know to do at this point is to load the old 12ga with slugs and havesome fun-i know that if I put it out on the curb someone will get it and fix it-and I'm not going to have that done to me-can you tell me what I might try next-if I fill the washer with water it will wash and it drains the water out-o one more thing when I start it-it starts to agitate before there is any water flowing
@@repairclinic i did not think that the lid switch would be the problem because it does everything but fill with water it agitate and washes if I fill it with water-will that switch keep it from filling with water ?
@@williamtreat5893William, do you mind if I ask what eventually was your fix?
I have similar problem- if I manually dump some water in, it works.
But by itself, as soon as you turn it on to start a new load the water only goes in for approximately 3 seconds and no more.
Thanks in advance.
Why I pay about $ 750 dollars for this piece of junk. It doesn’t work. Please help me before I sue. GE. Or the Home Depot. I have tried everything. On this shit nothing compared to the GE washing machine I had before. The problem is the same as the other people. BOICOT GE. OR HELP US TO FIX THE PROBLEM THANK YOU EVERYONE
I couldn't agree more!!!🙄
