First post, and I want to say thanks in advance. In searching the forums I’ve already learned a lot and I’m hoping you can help with a problem.
Whirlpool Cabrio WTW5700XW0, 3 years old, never been serviced, never had a problem before now.
I noticed my washer was using warm water on every cycle, so I did some tests today with a digital thermometer.
Set my washer on Soak and let it fill. Temps were 122 degrees on every setting (Tap Cold, Cold, Cool, Warm, Hot).
So I shut off the hot water at the hose-bib and tried to run a Soak cycle using Tap Cold but it wouldn’t fill. It just hummed until I turned on the hot water at the hose-bib and it started filling immediately.
Disconnected the cold water hose and checked the inlet screen but it was clear. Pointed hose into drum, turned on cold water hose-bib and pressure is fine.
What do I need to trouble-shoot next?
Thanks in advance.
