When things got back to normalcy, I tried washing clothes and noticed it not filling up the same. I also noticed the agitator wasn't working properly. But because of you and another video, I was able to fix both for under $10 and 15mins of my time. And I thought I was gonna have to buy a new one thinking pumps or motors were the problem. Thank you 🙏

  • @Arcturian1111
    @Arcturian1111 Před 4 lety +18

    You have to clean both of the screens in each inlet inside the washer hose inlet on the washer itself. There are two screens for each cold and hot on the washer.. One is inside the machine inlet that you can't see, and one outside the machine that you can barely see, it has a tab you pull out. Use a flashlight and look inside the inlet tube or nipple that's threaded, after you pull the first screen off you'll see it.. My inside screen was clogged bad, so I just took it out with a flathead screwdriver, and eliminated it totally. Both hoses were good, I saved some money, didn't need new hoses... All fixed.

    Hi Scott- My Kenmore 800 won't start filling, and there's no sound either. Yesterday I filled its bucket full (with no clothes in it), then pushed a down comforter in, displacing water which possibly spilled over the top of the bucket and shorted something out? What do you think? Thanks!

    Hi I'm not gaving probkem with the valve but it's been on a working true for the last 30 years. I am thinking if it's not broke, don't fix it. But a part of me says every time I clean the screens in the house faucets it has a ton of sediment in it. Should I check these valves now or wait until the day they give me trouble? I hVe an old Kenmore direct drive system that I truly love and never want to have to replace. Purchased New in 1987.

    Need your professional opinion please ...
    Just watched your YT VID on the water not flowing into the washer ... you said that unit was producing a high-pitch sound when it was set to run water into it ... but my washer is silent when I set the dial to fill it with water ... I had a repair guy here two weeks ago ... he ran a diagnostic test on it and said it needs a new chip ... but he never got back to me ... so I talked to several people about replacements parts and they said the idea of a washer needing a new chip did not make sense ... they both said it sounded like a problem with the water inlet valve ... but how would you explain the explain the silence? ... if I set my dial to SPIN, it works - you can hear the tub rotate ... your thoughts please.
    Thanks much ...

    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?

    My Kenmore800 washer won’t go into start up mode(on any of the cycles). It does go into Spin mode(on all cycles) but for some reason it will not start the actual Wash cycle. Is there any chance you’ve encountered this problem before? If so could you please help me out on figuring out the problem?

      Sounds like it’s having trouble sensing the load or with letting water in.
      Can you send a video of the start up to my email at: scottthefixitguy@yahoo.com

    I have a ge washer with a top mounted pressure switch. Pushing start button activates the valves to fill for a few seconds then stop. After a couple of starts it finally works. Why??

      Hi Vanessa,
      That's called siphoning .
      It means that the drain tube is going too far down that tube in the wall.
      You can fix it by pulling up the Drsin tube so it's just six inches into the tube in the wall.
      That should fix it.
      Please let me know how it goes.

    • @QuickAndEasy5MinuteAppliance
      @QuickAndEasy5MinuteAppliance  Před 2 lety

      Hi Rudy,
      Think there’s something wrong with the water level sensor.
      I think that the machine thinks that the washer is filled with water that might be why it won’t let new water in.
      Could be that the clear plastic hose that goes between the tub and the water pressure sensor fell off

    I ordered a new inlet valve. I'm got a LAT8426AAE maytag and after just doing a load, it wouldn't fill for the next load. Spurted a tiny bit of water and then won't fill. I am so hopefully this is the problem... Not sure what else it would be

      @QuickAndEasy5MinuteAppliance  Před rokem

      If it isn’t a clogged water inlet valve filter, then you just need a new water inlet valve.

    • @markcummings6856
      @markcummings6856 Před 8 měsíci

      May I ask if your Water Inlet Valve was the culprit?
      I have similar problem I believe as it just adds water for like 3 seconds and just stops.
      I was thinking the Water Float Valve being defective sending a premature signal to the Inlet Valve to STOP sending water?
      Thanks kindly in advance if anyone has any helpful info.

      The drain tube is too far down into that big black tube that goes into the wall.
      Try to shorten your drain hose so it only goes into the tube in the wall by 6 inches.

    Hi, my machine won't draw water. It's one that can only draw water when the lid is down. I was feeling around in there today and noticed that there is a switch of some kind under the lid on the back left side. When the lid goes down theres a little lever that slips up into a spot and hits something that makes the water come on. What is this part called and how can I fix it?

      There might be something clogging the intake screen which is right where the water hoses connect to the washing machine. If that doesn’t work then you may need to replace the water inlet valve.
