Found water leak in family room. Washer is directly above. Discover that the cold water continues to enter the tub after the wash is complete. From what I have read on your site it sounds like my cold water inlet valve needs to be replaced. My question is: How to remove the top of the washer. It is a front load-washer? Thanks Randy
For model number WFMC4301UC
Hi Randy, Thank you for the question. You will need to remove the screws from the back of the appliance to remove the top. Hope this helps!

Washer leaking from bottom. How can I troubleshoot if leak is from door gasket or water inlet? Thanks, Mike
For model number WFNC640SUC/01
Hello Michael, thank you for the question. We suggest inspecting the Bellow Seal around the door for damage. You can also tip the appliance back to check the underside for evidence of where the leak is coming from. Check all the hoses for damage and to make sure they are securely installed. We hope this helps!

The inlet valve on my washer was leaking
Turned off the water to the washer. Took the top off of the washer. Used pliers to loosen the rings holding the hoses to the valve. After the hoses were removed from the valve I popped out the old inlet valve. I put the new inlet valve in place and put the hoses and rings back on. Secured the top of washer back on the washer turned the water back on. No leak present.

E:12 error code displayed, frequently had to reset washer during cycle
Shut off water supply to washer, unplugged from power. Removed two Torx screws holding the top panel of the washer on (screws are on the back). Slid top back, then lifted up and off. Located cold water inlet valve. Squeezed hose clams with needle nose pliers and slid the two hoses off valve. Disconnected wire harness (look for push tab) from valve. With a little work figured out how to pop valve out of its opening. Installed new valve in its place and re-connected all hookups. Reattached top to washer, plugged and in reconnected water. Ran a test load, then another - no more errors!

The solenoid had sprung a leak
Removed screws from top cover. Slid the cover backs 1/4 inch, and lifted it off. Removed the wire harness by depressing the tab, and pulling it off. Depressed the tab in the back of the water inlet valve, slid it slightly forward and pulled it out. Installed the new part in reverse order.

Simple
Once you find a T-20 screw driver, it is easy. Remove top by unscrewing two screws from rear and sliding top back about an inch. Slide electronic plug out from old unit. Use pliers to remove two hose clamps. Remove hoses. Use flat head screwdriver to push old unit to the left when facing back of machine. Put in new unit. Slide in plug. Reconnect hoses slide clamps back over hoses. The hardest part was placing the top back on by aligning two tabs and sliding the top back in. Replace tow screws.
