New Hotpoint has only 5 inches of water in rinse. I am a farmer and get very dirty. I need warm rinse and a lot of it. I don't want to hear the crap about saving water. If I have to wash 3 times I use more than what I would if the washer was built for washing. I found the You Tube video of how to increase leve. My washer uses the timer to measure the water on the rinse cycle. There has to be a way to work around it. I can read schematics somewhat as I have an engineering degree but have retired. There has to be a way to do this. Please help. I do all my own mechanic work, so this cannot be very difficult.
Thanks in advance.

On the timer connector, there is a violet jumper wire that goes from R1 to R20. R1 is on the outside corner of the connector, R20 is in the middle, second from opposite end of R1. Cut this jumper and you will have full rinse level.

Thanks, I will open it up and look for the jumper. Schematic shows wire from R1 to R16 then from R16 to R20. both Violet
Is there any way to get warm rinse or maybe same rinse temp as the wash temp?

From the timer connector, cut the tan wire, orange/black wire and gray wire. Strip both ends of the orange/black wire and both ends of the gray wire but only the end of the tan wire from the connector. Splice all stripped wires together. Rinse temp will now be same as wash temp, as per temp switch setting.

Thanks again.
I looked at the schematic again and understand what this does.
Your help is certainly appreciated.
