Our Washer Never Stops Dripping In Water. It will eventually get too full and automatically spin itself out ( I should be grateful for that at least). We try to keep the water turned off but being hard to reach I dont always get them tight. Its also a pain turning them off and on. I will assume (I know you should never do that) that it is the intake valves?? I would just like someone else to tell me that they are pretty sure that is it also. Thanks for any help I can get.

You are correct in that the valve is faulty and will need to be replaced. The correct one for your model as well as a video showing how to replace it is below!

Intake valve, they get weak over time. Replace it. Timely repair as it's located in the back under the housing.
