I just replaced the water valve assembly because water was dripping non stop into the tub but now the tub is over-filling and says h20 supply and then drains out. Water no longer drips into the tub though...
For model number GTW685BSL0WS

Hello Lesley, Thank you for your question. We suggest using a multi-meter to check the water valve you ordered from us to make sure it isn't defective. Typically if the washer is overflowing or if there is a leak its both caused by the valve itself since it controls the water output. We hope this helps.

Would not drain the water from the tub.
Very simple to repair. Be sure to drain the tub outside or into the sump pump then lay the washer on its side. The pump is right there on the bottom of the basket with 3 bolts. You will also need to remove the belt cover to get to the plug. So simple and saves you hundreds off repair man prices.

Washer wouldn't fill, wash, spin
Use putty knife to unlock top panel from base. Remove 2 bolts from back of washer holding control section. Don't take completely off. 2 bolts needs to be removed to unsecure top from base. Lastly 2 screws hold lid in place. Remove lid. Slide top panel to left just to access lid lock. Unplug sensor. 1 screw and tabs hold lock in place. Watch position coming out so you don't get confused putting new lock in. Squeeze tabs, replace screw. plug in sensor. Reverse procedure to put top section back together.
