Have replaced the water inlet valve and that fixed the original problem when it wouldn't fill. Have replaced the water level switch but I am not certain I got the wires connected correctly. Now, water will not drain even though the machine spins. Before I check the pump is it possible it is related to water level switch and that I just don't have wires connected correctly? It seems like new symptoms keep arising. Is that normal in older machine? Thank You for any help you can offer. Diane
