We recently purchased(from a friend) a whirlpool front load washing machine for our new kitchen, and for some reason it will only wash with hot water. When I turn off the hot water taps, no water enters the machine at all. We have had the plumber come around to check if there were any kinks or blockages in the pipes behind the kitchen cabinets and oven, however he advised that the cold water is reaching the machine. What do you think the problem could be.

IS IT A FRONT LOAD OR TOP LOAD MACHINE??? ONLY THE TOP LOAD MACHINES HAVE A COUPLER. THERE IS NO TRANSMISSION ON FRONT LOAD ONES....

IF YOU HAVE A TOP LOAD AND YOUR MOTOR IS HOT AND WON'T START, REMOVE THE PUMP ON THE FRONT OF THE MOTOR AND TRY IT AGAIN. IF THE MOTOR STARTS, IT IS PROBABLY BECAUSE YOUR PUMP IS STUCK OR DEFECT... IF THE PUMP IS OK, YOU MAY HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE MOTOR. MAKE SURE THE TRANSMISSION IS TURNING (ONE SIDE FOR WASHING AND THE OTHER SIDE FOR SPINNING)...

that spring is for the door water seal if it "pops" off when you have a load of washing being washed you will flood your kitchen floor with water,,,fit a new door seal and a new spring fast!

Hiya,
Jumping washing machines are often caused by the simple things such as incorrect loading, when you purchased your machine it would have given you a load capacaty, for this machine i think it is quit large but it does have the options of extra settings 1 of which is a half load setting i would surgest you try a half load setting on 1 wash & see if this helps the idea behind this is that if your machine jumps even more than normal then you may be over filling it & if it reduces the amount of jumping then maybe you was under filling it, if the jumping remians the same then we can start to rule out reasons for the jumping.. that would be your starting point to resolve this problem.

Hope this helps

Sounds like the door seal may have become detached.

Hello Friend, I think your machine will work properly if you add a water line splitter. You would connect to the single cold water tap and on the other end you would have two water hoses . Connect one hose to the cold water inlet of your washer and then connect the other hose to the hot water inlet. You can get these at Home Depot. Happy to help, Tim.

If you are using the recommended HE (High Efficiency) soap, you will not see alot of sudsing, this is normal. The washing action is very different than the top load machines. Excessive sudsing will cause issues with this machines operation.

try to do cold cycle first without doing warm cycle first

WHEN YOU WASH IS THE WATER HOT ENOUGH IN A REASONABLE TIME? ALSO DOES THE WASHER SENCE THE AMOUNT OF SOAP THATS IN THE TUB. IT COULD BE GIVING ADDITIONAL RINCES TO REDUCE THE SOAP CONTENT.(TRY WITH NO SOAP IN SYSTEM AND SEE IF TIME IS SHORTER)
