The Water Inlet Valve on your washing machine supplies hot and cold water for the wash and rinse. The valve will have two solenoids that operate inlets for both the hot and cold water supply. The timer or electronic control, water temperature cycle selector and the water level pressure switch control the valve. The valve is controlled by the timer or electronic control, the water temperature/cycle selector switch and the water level/pressure switch. If your washer is not filling with either hot or cold water and you have water pressure to the inlet valve, you should next verify that you have power to the solenoid on the valve during the fill portion of the cycle. This can be checked with a multi-meter or a voltage tester. This is a live voltage test and should only be performed by a qualified person. If power is available at the solenoid terminals, then the valve is defective and will need to be replaced. If there is no power at the terminals, then you will need to check the other components in the water inlet valve circuit. If you cannot check for voltage at the valve, you can check the solenoids for continuity with a multi-meter. A solenoid that has no continuity is defective and normally is not available separately so you will need to replace the complete valve. Remove power from the appliance before performing this test.

We've identified the most common parts that can cause a washer to not fill, but there are other parts that could be at fault. If you are unable to fix your washing machine with the information above, enter your model number into the search box for additional repair help. Searching with your model number will give you access to all parts and schematics, symptoms for your specific washer as well as all installation instructions and videos.

The lid switch on a top load washing machine is a safety device designed to prevent the motor circuit from operating when the lid is open. On some models, the water inlet valve circuit is also controlled. If the lid switch fails on these models, power cannot be supplied to the water inlet valve. If you have determined that the water inlet valve on your washer is not receiving power then you should check the lid switch. The lid switch is normally located beneath the main top with a projection on the lid or a pin attached to the lid that will actuate the switch when the lid is closed. Verify that the switch is activated mechanically and that any levers or actuators are not damaged or sticking. If the switch is activated but there is no power being supplied to the inlet valve circuit then the switch may be defective. Disconnect power from the appliance and remove the wires from the switch. You can then check the switch for continuity with a multi-meter. We strongly recommend that you DO NOT bypass a lid switch as it is an important safety feature and serious injury could result.
