Water over flowing even after replacing water level

If your Kenmore 500 washing machine is filling with water but the water won't shut off, it could be caused by a few different issues. Here are a few things to check:

1. Water inlet valve: The water inlet valve is responsible for controlling the flow of water into the washing machine. If the valve is faulty or stuck open, it may cause the water to continue flowing even after the machine is full.
2. Water level switch: The water level switch is responsible for detecting the level of water in the machine and shutting off the water when the machine is full. If the switch is faulty or not functioning properly, it may cause the water to continue flowing.
3. Wiring issue: There may be a problem with the wiring or the electrical system that is causing the water inlet valve or the water level switch to malfunction.

To determine the cause of the problem, it is recommended to bring your washing machine to a professional appliance repair service for further diagnosis and repair. They will be able to test the water inlet valve, water level switch, and other components to identify the source of the issue and recommend the appropriate repairs.

F8E0Steam valve failureCheck the water supply hoses for kinks. Check for a restricted screen in the water valves. Replace the steam valve if defective.
Steam valve
F8E1No water detectedMake sure that both water supply valves behind the washer are fully open. In winter, check the fill lines for freezing. Check the drain system for a siphon problem. If the water valve assembly is defective, replace it.

F8E2Dispenser failureThe dispenser can't move into position. Unplug the washer and check the mechanical linkage on the dispenser housing. Repair or replace any damaged dispenser parts.
Dispenser assembly parts
F8E3Overflow conditionUnplug the washer and, if the washer is overfilled, check the water valve assembly for proper shut-off of water flow. If the water valve assembly is defective, replace it. If the washer is empty when this error code appears, replace the water level pressure switch.

F8E4Low water flowThe flow meter detects a long fill time. Make sure that both water supply valves behind the washer are fully open. In winter, check the fill lines for freezing. Check the drain system for a siphon problem. If the water valve assembly is defective, replace it. If water flows normally, replace the flow meter.

F9E1Long drainRemove excess suds; the washer can't drain excessively sudsy water. Check your house drain system for a clog. Check the drain hose for kinks or clogs. Replace the drain pump if defective. If the washer drains properly, replace the water level pressure switch because it isn't accurately detecting the water level.

Is the sump tray full of water? or is it not filling up fast enough? Water level sensor lets control board it needs water or its full of water. If machine is not getting enough water or slow filling then check the water filter, if water is flowing good through filter good then pull water line off of the water inlet valve to make sure there is no trash blocking water at inlet. If not then make sure the water solenoid is getting power call from board to solenoid, if getting 115v to coil and slow to no water to sump then replace valve, if no power to valve then replace board.

The low flow message on any Balboa means that you are having an issue with the flow of water through your heating unit. This can be caused by a few things.

• Low water levels
• Dirty filters
• Something is impeding your water flow

Top up your water level and make sure it is where it needs to be, clean your filters or replace them, and check that nothing is impeding your water flow at the skimmer or water intakes.

Here is a link to water flow issues.

It could be your flushing mechanism inside the tank that is letting the water in even after the flush. First flush and watch the bottom mechanism whether it blocks completely when water is full in the tank at set level and no more water flows.

This is a failure of the inlet valve if the water flows all the time but if the water flows uncontrolled only when the machine is put on start then it is the failure of the WATER LEVEL SENSOR which is normally a pressure switch.
When the level of water reaches the set level then the pressure of the water will switch on the switch to contact and so give message to the controller to SHUT down the inlet valve.

replace the valve rubber at the top of the inlet control

If the water continues to run when you unplug the washer - replace the water valve. Part# 8578343
If it stops when you unplug the washer - problem is likely in the water level switch or silicone tubing coming to it. If the tubing is attached to both the tub and the water level switch and there is no holes/cracks in it - replace the water level switch. Part numbers: switch 8577844, tubing 3347780

First see that the exit hose behind the machine is at the correct height, before coming down into the wall standpipe or your sink. Your machine pump pumps water over this height, about 2.75 feet above ground level. Possible there is a water level height marked behind your machine.

If water flows out when machine is off, possible your inlet valve at top of machine is defective...............can be replaced easily.

It depends on how old the machine is, the newer machines by law,take in way less water but still wash ok. TIP.try it with out load and check water level Ire bye
