I was given this washer as a back up,the lady told me it is 3 years old.A couple days ago she said she was washing and the fill station would not stop filling.I thought it was from hard water build up.I took apart where the water lines go and there was alot of build up on the sensors would that cause this problem?

Whirlpool model WTW5310VQO

i've found problems with the temp. switch on this washer part number W10184148 and it's around 40 dollars,also on the rinse cycle the washer only uses cold water.what happens when you use just the hot?i had a lady that her water would start to fill and then the water would stop and the pipes in the house would start making a banging sound.if you order the part from http://www.repairclinic.com/PartDetail/Switch/W10184148/1468990 repair clinic and if this isn't your problem which i think it is from how you discribe it you can send the part back and get your money back for up to a year.good luck with your washer and next time you buy something and it doesn't work right get right on it

You have said it all. OLD.

time to give it up and get a new one.

first, the cost of figuring out what part is defective and getting a replacement part may take a couple weeks and couple hundred dollars for the repairman.
second, you will STILL have all old parts on the rest of the washer.
