I believe that this is the best explanatory guidelines and easiest I have have ever read. Thank you for your helpful explanations and taken the time to do this.
You're a washing machine wizard !! God love ya !!The Lord guided me your channel. Thank you, thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise. You made it easy, a mouse had a snack of the pressure hose. All good in the laundry room after mopping up 45 gallons from the washer continuously running water. The concrete hasn't looked that clean in 20 years!
Hahaha! I felt the same way earlier today. When I noticed my washer overflowing onto the floor, I immediately turned it off and started “mopping” it up with the dirty towels that were on the floor waiting their turn, haha. When I saw all the yucky stuff I was wiping up with the towels, after I got over being grossed out, I had to smile because now I had a reasonably clean floor, hahaha. I also thanked God that I was standing right there when it started overflowing! Otherwise it could have created a huge mess and probably caused a lot of water damage, or worse, mold. Now I just need to figure out which of the 5 potential failure points it is. But learning new stuff is good for our brains so it’s all good. My glass is full, and so is my washer right now, hahaha.
I love these videos. I have a really old Kenmore. I think it’s about 30 years old. I have been encouraged to buy a new washing machine. About three years ago the pump went out a replaced the pump and it continues to work. The current problem was, the inlet valve. I bought a new inlet valve and put the machine back together. I took it for A spin and it wouldn’t stop filling. None of the other events like agitation started either. I was ready to call it quits and buy a new machine. It was a struggle to take the machine apart, but I did notice that what I’ve discovered to be. The pressure hose was not attached to anything. I watch this video and it says oh it’s a pressure hose and it needs to be attached to the back of the tub so now I will, take the machine apart again and attach it. Hopefully it works. This has been a challenge, but I’ve grown attached to this washing machine. 😁
Great Video ... we are new construction ... sediment is high and we had a low pressure situation due to the inlet screen where the hose attaches being very clogged ... we cleared it .... perfect operation. Thank you!
Thanks for the info! My home is older, but sometimes there’s a break in the community water pipes that allows sediment to get in and send dirty water beyond those break. I’m glad it was a reasonably inexpensive fix.
Thanks, good stuff, this is only the second time this ever happened in around 6 years. Got in the shower and she washed a load while I was in there, it didn't even click until I seen your #1 Problem... lesson for the day, unless you have great water pressure, don't take a shower and wash clothes at the same time. Was an older washer, at least 15 yrs old, but again, it's been years since the last time it happened.
Wow! Thank you SO much for sharing this info! I would not have imagined that could happen! My washer is ~23 years old. Plus I’m at the end of the community water lines so if there’s an issue with water pressure upstream, I’ll definitely get the brunt of it. Now I know if the washer’s running, stay out of the shower, stay awake, and stay home. I knew to never leave the house or go to sleep if the dryer’s running due to potential fire hazards. Geez. Who knew convenient appliances could be so dangerous?
I have a top loader whirlpool. The cold water doesn't turn off. I have to stand by to manually do it, then shut off the valve at the wall. The hot works fine and shuts off correctly. I basically sit by the washer and wait for it to make a click noise once it's at the correct water level so I know when to shut it off. I'm guessing that limits the problem possibilities a bit. I'll have to open it and see if I can figure it out. Thanks for the helpful video. (And thanks to anyone that offers any helpful tips)
If the unit will not stop filling until you turn the water off to the unit then you will need to replace the water valve. If it stops coming in when you turn the appliance off then you will need to replace the pressure switch.
Thanks a bunch for this video!!!! My mom was doing laundry and all i heard was a bunch of "eeks, omg's and what's going on with this thing" from her before I discovered the washer wasn't responding to anything she was doing it and had she not shut the water off on the valves it would've overflowed. (Ik she said she hit pause at some point but that didn't work and it kept filling but the weird thing was that the rest of the lights went out that are normally on like the load size and the water temperature light selection wasn't lit up - this was prior to her shutting off the valves) Im going to watch this video again and see if I can figure out what the dealio is. Thanks again! 😀 7:21
Speed queen top loader makes a loud bang .I replaced the agitation pulley,belt,helix,all genuine parts.the problem of failure to spin continues.should it to do with the transmission system ?
I just bought a new whirlpool washing machine (Lowes). It fills up with water (in sensing mode), then stops and you can hear dripping, then starts filling back up again. It gets stuck doing this for hours (of course I turn it off before hours). This is the 2nd machine as the first was stuck in sensing mode as well. Is this normal? any ideas?
I have a Maytag top loader with a clean washer cycle when I use that it doesn't cycle through the water just keeps pouring into the machine why is my clean washer cycle not working? every other cycle works fine, thanks
MATAG MVWB850YW1,..just keeps filling until we Cancel. No error codes. How free should the tub be? I just changed the bearings and driveshaft and seal too.
All of this was excellent. However, the problem with the machine on my 2nd floor that created a catastrophe was not mentioned. The Water Level Control wasn't clicked in on the chosen level .. it was just "off" to the right. The machine didn't know to stop .. and it didn't. THOUSANDS of dollars in damage to the apartment below. Unfortunate - and something to be aware of and watch out for when in a hurry. BE SURE IT CLICKS IN TO YOUR CHOICE OF WATER LEVEL... nearby the choice is a disaster waiting to happen. Figured it out and it's filling and draining and spinning a wash this very evening. Trusty Kenmore and a user error.
be careful, I've had flooding several times because even when changing between settings, it doesn't make good contact. But I have another problem - after it fills and stops, when it moves to the next cycle it will try to fill again, so sometimes it just completely ignores the level. The only way to stop it is to manually advance the program knob until it gets to a spin or drain cycle
A reading of 0.00 during a meter test shows continuity with no resistance. A reading of 0.L means over limit, infinite resistance, that means no continuity or not connected. A numbered reading greater than zero is a measure of resistance including the test leads, their connection to the right place for the test, and the resistance of the part that has continuity In this example. Have fun. Don't call for a special service call just yet if visual inspection shows disconnect or damaged pressure line. or a blockage exists. Clear it by blowing thru it? Could be.
@@moonmagnolia7 they take some thought and practice, and some meters are difficult to read settings for. I didn't get good instructions with some of mine. My fluke meter came with its own book. Shows you what you get for your money. I had a repair once, I needed. Their tech sent me a brand new one, with new leads. A $500 tool. Here you go! Wow.
My tub sometimes fill up while off. Problem water is shut off when I don't use it...First time it did that, the city main water was off, nobody could get any water at all but my machine filled up completely so I really don't understand how it does that...
Be sure to check the silicone hose attached to the rear middle of the control board on the Maytag Bravo x. If it comes undone, the water will continue to fill and not switch to wash.
If water is not coming into the unit you can check the pressure hose for clogs. If that is good, check for power at the water valve when it should be filling. If you have power there and it's not letting water into the unit then you will need to replace the water valve.

JUST FIXED MY WASHER!!!!! THANKS SO MUCH!!! The hose was popped off the pressure switch, so when I went to cheek it, i put it back on!
That’s awesome! I hope that’s my washer’s problem too. 😊
Solved my problem. It was the cold water side of the intake valve. Could not have solved this without this video. Thank you.

You're welcome!
Thank you for this video! I have feeling my water level selector is bad, so I will start there first, but thanks for the other scenarios to check!
Great video. Showed me exactly where the water level sensor was. Found that the hose has come off at the sensor. Nice easy fix with your help. Thanks
Ok, Excellent info, I can check everything. I'm hoping it's the low water pressure situation.
Where did you get that pliers tool?
Look at those hose pliers! 😍

Water inlet valve is busted, it drained even when the washer was unplugged. Thank you so much!

Should water be in the air bulb or up into the pressure hose partially ?
What is the model number number of your washer?

Oh my gosh! How awful! I’m glad I have an old, very basic machine.
So if you blow in and it clicks then suck in and it clicks it's good right.
You would still have to use a multimeter to test the pressure switch to see if it is bad.
1:18 well how would I know? would I keep hearing water? You didnt explain how I would know it was still open.
bingo ! low water pressure, i did'nt have the valve all the way open......... i did'nt know that would matter.........but it does ! thank you ! wb

Thank you! Your video was very helpful.
My ge washer that doesn't have a digital display continues to fill with cold water through all cycles even when the washer is shut off.
It sounds as if you could be having an issue with your water valve. What is your model number and we can look into this for you.
Be sure to check the silicone hose attached to the rear middle of the control board on the Maytag Bravo x. If it comes undone, the water will continue to fill and not switch to wash.
What is that tool called at 6:20?
Just look up washer hose pliers
My Toshiba washing machine doesn't follow due process, while filling water, it blinks the washing light and that affects how it washed thereafter
Great video helped a lot !
How about why water not coming out?
If water is not coming into the unit you can check the pressure hose for clogs. If that is good, check for power at the water valve when it should be filling. If you have power there and it's not letting water into the unit then you will need to replace the water valve.
THANKS FOR THIS VIDEO!
SAVED ME UNTOLD FEDERAL RESERVE NOTES,AND TROUBLE!!
They are super videos
Sometimes you just need to unplug the water supply, put it back in, and then turn the water on before the machine.
Rinse cycle keeps filling with water and never gets to the spin.
You will need to check the pressure hose for clogs and make sure it's installed properly. If that is good and you can shut the water off by turning off the machine, then you will need to replace the pressure switch.
@@appliancepartspros thank you. I will try this tonight
@@appliancepartspros do you know where pressure switch is? Thank you
The pressure switch is usually located behind the control panel.
The reason why the water inlet in the washing machine is not cut off
If there is anything we can help you with please let us know. Good luck with your repair and let us know how it goes!
The washer has no water in it. But it is still running and won't shut off.
What is your model number?
Won't file up.
What is the model number of your washer? Have you had any error codes at all? Are you sure there is power coming to the machine?
