I just picked this washer up used from craigslist for 225.00. I can have it replaced with a similar product but I really like the stainless steel tub! It works great EXCEPT the water temp will not properly regulate while in the "Normal" cycle. It has a 4 water temp control switch which works perfectly with the timer switch set to "Heavy Duty", "Delicates", and "Casual" but, with the timer switch set to the "Normal" cycle, the "Hot" setting of the Temp. Control Switch only produces warm water (a mixture from the hot and cold hoses) and all other settings produce only cold (nothing from the hot hose at all).

My thinking is that this is a problem with the timer switch since it is the only variable that produces the problem on a consistent basis (ie when the setting is "Normal"). Yet the timer switch seems to work fine otherwise. Could the water valve assembly be misfiring only on the Normal cycle setting due to something within the water valve/solenoids themselves?. Or is it the temp control switch? Which would you try changing out first?
Thanks,
Deron
