Model: WTW57ESVW1
The problem was; it would agitate while filling.. but it wouldn't fill fast enough, then spin out but leave it sopping wet... I unplugged hose off temp switch and it started filling with no agitating, then I hooked the hose up filled it and it agitated when it reached the top and went through cycle as normal... my questions is what is wrong temp switch..? air dome thingy?
Thanks for Replying

These switches have been very problematic. Many times, just unplugging the pressure hose and wiring connectors and plugging back in cures the problem. You can blow through the hose to make sure the air chamber is clear. Usually not a problem on these washers though. If the air chamber and hose are ok, no gunk in chamber, no kinks/splits/cracks in hose and hose fittings are tight and reseating the hose and connectors does not fix the problem, replace the switch. They are a high failure item and at one time, there was a class action lawsuit in progress against Whirlpool for this issue. Don't know what ever became of it.
