Front Load Washer Not Filling or Water Trickles / Solenoid Testing and Replacement
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 лип 2024
- If your front load washer is not filling or water trickles in, the water valve my need repaired. In this video I show you how to test the water solenoid valve on your washing machine. The washer in this video is a Frigidaire. This will be pretty much the same on Kenmore Branded Washers made by Electrolux.
Ge, Samsung, Maytag and Whirlpool machines will also have basically the same setup as this one does.
Here is the link to order some parts for your Appliance.

Diagnosed the problem via Google. Ordered the replacement part online. Watched this video and fixed it myself saving several hundred dollars. MANY MANY thanks for this video!
RIP Bill. You'll be missed. Thanks for the years of expertise
In a tough spot financially right now. This video really saved me and my family some much needed money to get to September with clean clothes. Thank you.
I just fixed my machine with my son.
Showed him the electric tape trick.
Thanks!!!!
I got no hot water for 3 days already. Now have it. Thanks million times to you. Rinnai should have noted this in its manual troubleshooting
section
You make it look so easy replacing it, I had a hard time putting the new one in, til someone told me to put detergent on it and it slipped right in. Thanks
Thank you! Your video helped me fix the problem. Appreciate.
Thank YOU for making this video. This was extremely helpful!
Thank you for the video, saved my life! seriously though its exactly what i needed to replace this part.
Just did mines today thanks so much for the video 💪💪💪
Thanks for the Tape trick.
GENIUS
"This pro tip will save your life" that's classic. Anyone who says that is an exaggeration has clearly never dropped something of importance inside an appliance. The tape trick really is a good one. Great video as always.
Okay, you saved me a lot of money and time. Thank you Thank you Thank you!!!!! I'm calmer now and the music is great.........
This is educational sir, i have experience this problem now with my LG front load.
Thank you, it's so helpful.
Thanks for the video. Your voice reminds me of an movie action hero.
Lots of thanks for good job.
Yes straight to the point. Thanks
Love the tip!! Thanks
Great video, thank you so much for posting! Milwaukee should sponsor you. :)
It would be helpful if you mentioned the two black ‘washers/caps’ that fit over the inlets before installation. My washer leaked profusely at initial installation. Then I went back to my old inlet valve, and noticed your video had one on and one off. I took both caps off my old unit, put them on the new one, and problem solved! Otherwise, thank you SO MUCH for the detailed video and description. As a single elderly woman, I find these videos immensely valuable. It makes me very proud to be a DIY-er, again thanks to you!
Love the tape trick. Thanks for sharing
Pops McCartney that was a good tool to use thank you and I appreciate it I got a good use out of it
So I replaced the valve and still won't get hot water to dispense any thoughts
thanks for the video
i have a LG washer ( WM3370H_A front load. it is about 1.5 years old. the washer operates as usual but no water entering. also i only have the water knob turned only 1/4 turn. i have steel hose. what are the odds that i have a clogged screen or bad inlet valve ? thanks ! forgot to mention the dryer is on top so can't get to the rear of the washer unless i remove the dryer which is a pain in the....
Thanks for videos
great video
Great video
Thank you this video saved my ass
thanks for your video, I checked water and other things and seems like it might be the valve also my washer is a Whirlpool front loader it seems like cold water is not sufficiently entering the medium and large cycle but on small cycle it works fine. On a large cycle it stops and beeps and doe not finish the cycle. If you could give me any tips I would be very thankful! its a whirlpool wfw9150 front-loading, non-digital, thanks
I Love your Taped screwhead tip Thank you. Your video is well done. I have a problem with my Whirlpool duet steam Front Loading washer. I wish I could find a video as well informing as this one. My washer doesn't drain anything out of the detergent compartment, and leaves the bleach compartment full of water when the wash load is finished. It is quite perplexing.
how do you change a dyer motor from a stackable combo? what's the easier way, it's kinda of difficult to get too.
Hi Bill
Your videos are excellent
Have a guesting
Front load GE when start button pressed it locks the door then the drain pump comes on but no water comes in.if I try to pause or power off the drain pump goes on
Thank you so much! My screen was completely clogged. You saved me from calling a repair guy
Repair guy that just came to my house said it's 250 bucks if he repairs anything in the machine. It doesn't matter whether it takes 5mins or an hour, the price is the same. I'm loving this video more and more!
What is the 3rd (blue) solenoid valve for that you did not check. I am having a drip from the top of the inside of the washer. I think it may be where the steam comes in but not sure. I am not having the typical water leak running down the left side of the door seal. Any thoughts?
i have no water coming in, tested continuity on the inlet valve in all plugs and they were fine (around 1000 ohms) tested voltage again in all of them and they all read around 110v so assume all is fine there as well. SO if I still have a no water coming in issue (hot, cold or warm) then it's still the inlet fill valve that needs replacing or something else?
Well done
So what if we don't have 120v at the solenoid? (STEP 2)
color coded connectors, I guess red would be hot, but did you say the greenish one was cold - not the blue one? Could you ID all three? I'm confused. Thanks.
I've been watching your videos off and on now for about a year and a half I need to see a video on a GE motor with an inverter on it a top load how do you test that motor on the bench
Thank you soooo much for this! I would have never found that 2nd screw if it weren’t for your video! Could you tell me how much that valve costs to replace?
So helpfull
I had a plugged filter. No water in and it would not drain. Filter door was on the front. It had a sock in it. Works great now.
Excellent video. Is it also likely a cold water valve issue if cold water leaks inside the machine when the Samsung machine is OFF?
PS Hot water does NOT leak as I first tested one then the other. No water on the outside at the back where the braided hose connects. Thanks so much.
Thank you
thanks. thumbs up
The tape around screwdriver and screw is a keeper.
This video is extremely well done. Thanks for making these instructions clear, easy to follow, and sequential. Are you by chance a teacher?
You prolly dont give a shit but does anybody know of a way to get back into an Instagram account??
I stupidly lost my account password. I love any tricks you can offer me.
@Larry Elisha instablaster ;)
@Benedict Adonis i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm trying it out atm.
Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Benedict Adonis it worked and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thanks so much, you saved my account!
@Larry Elisha No problem xD
hi bill i have the same washer will u know the model# of that style?ill like to order parts but need model # ,sticker on panel erased with time plz help,just need model#
I have a Kenmore elite washer and not enough water gets in to wash the clothes how to adjust the sensor? to add more water in the washing machine model number41072.311 it is a front load washer
My brand new Frigidaire front loading washer will not fill with warm or hot water... only ice cold. Could the hot water valve be the problem?
my machine won't fill the pump comes on right away at start then e30 code appears The connection for the valve at the board gives me 240v on both leads (return) and 0volts across the leads. When disconnecting the valve connection from the board the reading is then 240 live 0volts return and 28volts. across the terminals can you explain what is happening so far nobody can help me This problem is intermitting it could take a few goes before working or it could take hours.
Mine is doing the same thing but mine is buzzing when its on wash but on rinse it works perfect
is 115v enough for the valve, thats what i get upon turning it on
why you are receiving the slow response to the water
I dropped my soap, bleach and softener drawer and the face of tray separated from trays. I put it together and slid tray back into machine. No water goes into machine is there a reason water doesn't go into machine because of a tray fault?
Our top loader is making clicking sound when turned on. What could be causing it!
I have a drip of water that I can hear. If left overnight it will have water in tub and leak out over edge of front loading door. Could excessive water pressure say 94 lbs the valves to leak?
I noticed your question today. I think I am having the same problem. Is it the little plastic piece just above the door on the inside dripping? What did you end up having to do?
Please make about defective door switch how to find out make videos tks...
Our laundry machine only fills on "clean washer" and rinse cycle. Could that still be a water valve issue?
Hey Sam! I’m having this same issue. Did this do the trick?
I have the MAYTAG LAT9605 AAE TOP loader washer.
I have replace the switch, the water inlet, water pressure switch and the machine is still not filling. Is there something I m missing?
I had a plugged filter had a sock in it
It was on the front of mine. Not in the inlet. Had to drain it and unscrew filter pretty good size.
got hoover washmachine 9 kg error code e03 cleaned coins out all ok 2 day later e03 changed pump runs then e03 stops seems to fill witbh a little water but not lots if i put it to drain it drains and when almost drained e03 and stops
I have an Electrolux washer and I've changed the water valve twice still no water
So what if I’m not getting 120v to the plug
I have searched and searched for that exact part. It does not exist. Model # 970-C4909200
.what am i missing here ?
I got a code saying NF it just started and idk what is going on?
I kinda have the same problem water trickles out then stops every 2 or 3 mins while I have in wash cycle so the machine is not filling up like normal
Now, first let me say that I'm NOT a pro, and I don't play one on TV. But the repair guy that just came to my house claimed it's required that you replace those little black rubber gaskets (or plugs or whatever you want to call them) that the tips of the valve assembly plugs into on the machine (behind the dispenser tray). And how much would you think those little plugs cost? A nickel, a quarter, ok be real generous..say $2 a piece? Nope... how about $40 a piece!! I checked the prices even on Amazon, that's what they cost! And my "beautiful machine" just so happens to require 5 of THEM!!! (The machine in the video only needs 2) The repair guy said that if you don't replace them, there is a leak possibility which could destroy the machine (allegedly) because the new valve won't seat the same with old gaskets..
So now I ask, what do the Pros (or others) think about that?
RIP Semper Fi
How much is this part thanks
NOT GETTING PHASE TO THE VALVE INPUT...NEUTRAL S FINE, WHAT WILL BE POSSIBLE CAUSE? CIRCUIT BOARD ? PLEASE REPLY
My fridgeare washing machinedo not refill to rinse
voltage coming to inlet only 1.5 or 2.5, water not coming from inlet, so what is the problem,
Not enough voltage
You won't need tape on your screw if you were to remove the air intake tube by simply rotating it out.
Great video, but why do all videos have rock music as background ..............................
my machine will say door locked add garment no water comeing in
I just replaced it and still not working
Main filter plugged probably
Why the music, it's nerve racking enough dealing with a out of commission washing machine.
