Washer consistently displaying "water fill" error codes
This was a super easy repair that completely fixed my issue. My washer was showing the same F8E1 error code on most loads, and would not run special cycles, only the normal wash cycle.
With the help of Google, I diagnosed the issue as a water fill error and understood that the inlet valve wasn't working. I bought this part, watched an instructional YouTube video, and replaced the broken part in about 25 minutes, start to finish.
To do the repair, I disconnected power and shut off water to the machine, then removed the back panel of the washer. Next, I unhooked the wires and water tubes connected to the old inlet valve and pulled it out of the machine. I snapped the wires into the correct ports on the new valve, attached the water hoses, slid it into position, and secured it with the set pins, then reattached the back panel on the washer. I plugged the machine back on and opened the water line. Everything works now, including special cycles.

Bought a washer without front leveling feet
The repair was simple as you can imagine. Thought I could buy these legs at any big box store or at least at the local hardware store. No such luck. Partselect had the right product---easy to order and easy to install. Things around here are great.

Both outside door handles turned very beige
Everything worked perfectly---thanks to the suggestion of your call center agent. She suggested that since the replacement door handles were no longer available, I should consider repainting them--it worked like a charm. Please tell her she was a life saver. We rent that house in Fl and my returning tenants had complained about the discoloring refer handles. Thank you
