Also the WLC line is now shorter would that make a diff? Thanks in advance C C

Thanks in advance C C CC, First things first, Replace the air dome hose, Part number: AP4025726 The water level control is not the problem, at this point, if It agitates when you blew in it, the switch and wiring are OK. You could have a clog in the bellows or the bellows opening. (where the air dome attaches to the outer tub assembly). Repalce the hose and check the opening on the bellows and we'll go from there. Good Luck, :) :) :)

But you need to get that hose replaced and openning checked for safety reasons, more than anything else, That machine could overfill and flood the house, if left in the present condition. Have you run a tetst cycle, does the machine spin, can you hear the pump sucking air, does the water fill ? Drop us a line if you need more help, :cool: :cool: :cool:

Thanks in advance Hunter, As long as you're sure there are no air leaks on the new air dome tube, You're going to need the Water Level Switch. Ther must be a mechanical failure inside the switch. Part number: AP4025680 Good Luck, :) :cool: :)
