How Do I Replace The Electronic Water Valve In A Electrolux Eiflw55hmb Front Loa

No cold water will come into the machine.  It will only allow hot water to enter.  Valve was replaced once (under waranty) about 6 months ago (washer less then 2 yrs old) but appears to have gone bad again.  How do I replace the valve?

Unfortunately this is not a typical DIY job. This requires the professional assistance of a technician in order to complete it with safety and accuracy in mind. I am not saying you couldn't find DIY videos on the internet, but I strongly suggest to have an Electrolux technician do the work for you. This way they can guarantee their work for at least 30 days, some technicians do it for 90 days.
