Washer will not fill or Agitate. Only spins and sprays water. Checked water level switch and switch works. Water Valve will not fill.

Last Minute,

Based on your post,

You need to check the hot water fill valve solenoid for resistance and or 120 volts at the fill valve in a hot wash fill setting.
That will tell us if the temperaure switch and the timer are working correctly.

Have you tried starting the washer on a cold wash, cold rinse or warm wash,cold rinse setting ?

That will give us a better idea of what's wrong.

Yes have tried the warm/warm and the cold /cold. Nothing unit sits idle. There is no etc so everthng should b straight forward. I did replace timer. do to everything checking out. However its oing the same thing.

LastMinute,

Since you have a new timer, we can bypass that for now.

Did you check for the 120 VAC at the fill valve solenoid(s) in a fill setting ?

Tan/Black to White on the solenoid wires,in a Hot fill, should have 120 VAC
Yellow/Red to white on the solenoid wires, in a cold fill should have 120 VAC

If you have the voltage, replace the fill valve,

Part number: AP3094541

At the water level switch:

Check Purple to chassis ground for 120 VAC,
Check Pink to chassis ground for 120 VAC,

No 120 VAC on Purple, Bad Lid switch or wire,
No 120 VAC on Pink, bad water level switch.

Part number: AP3180933

Part number: AP4567828

*** These are "live" voltage checks, so be CAREFUL ***

Found Water level switch was shorted. Points inside burnt completely off causing a floating piece of metal debris.


BTW: Thank you for your help.

Last Minute,

Great job,

A broken contact, is not an everyday occurrence,they usually fail when they arc together, or worp out of shape, where they won't close.

We were happy to help,

Glad you're up and running,

Thanks Again,
