The hot water valve is found at the back of your washer and controls the flow of hot water into the machine. If the valve is defective, the washer may leak, overfill, fill slowly, or not fill with water at all. If this happens the valve should be replaced. There are a couple different methods for testing if your hot water valve is defective. The first is to use a multimeter on the solenoid, the second is to unplug the washer while it is running. If water continues to flow into the machine, then the valve is defective. This genuine OEM part has a standard hose fitting inlet, one water outlet, and measure approximately 3 inches long by 3 inches wide. To complete this repair, you will need to disconnect the water and power supply to your washer and pull it out from the wall so you can access the back panel.
