Washer is overfilling. I've checked the hose on the pressure switch, it's clear. The exit and entry points on the tub and pressure switch are clear. I can blow directly into the pressure switch, I hear it click.....I then hear a relay click, but it continues to fill.....sometimes the water flow will lessen when I blow into it, but it never stops.


Any suggestions?

Thanks
Brian...

If you are certain there is no pinhole in the tube I would go ahead and change out the pressure switch. That certainly sounds like it is your problem.

A Pinhole shouldn't be the problem, because I took the hose completely off, and blew straight into the pressure switch......so I'm assuming it's not the hose at all.......I should be able to generate enough pressure blowing in myself correct?

Yes, you can trigger the switch by blowing on it, and sounds like you didn't find a pinhole.

Your testing of the switch was correct, but sometimes the switch acts up and it sounds like that is what yours is doing. If so the only way to be sure is to replace it.

If you buy from this site and the switch does not fix the problem you can return it. Check with APP about their returns policy.

I had this problem once, and it was because the anti-siphon loop on the drain hose had slipped down and wasn't working anymore - the water just kept filling and draining out just as fast. Just another thing to check.
