Cold water is filling slow and need to replace water valve on stacked washer / dryer unit. Do I have to remove the dryer on top of the washer to get at it? If so, how do I do it? Valve is located in the upper right of cabinet, behind the washer tub.

Good news, it's a fairly easy job and the service manual for the Frigidaire model will show you how (Frigidaire makes your model)

Better news, here is the service manual.

The service manual that you helped me locate was just what I needed. The washer top came off by removing 2 screws and lifting off. The water value could be easily replaced. Only problem was with the mounting screws. Had to insert and turn screws with vice grips before they could be tightened down. Thanks for the help, I really appreciate it.
