Remove lid and just check connectors on rear of inlet vaulves are not earthing. Hope this helps. Also to check it is not a faulty solonoid remove wires from 1 terminal and tape them up, then put machine onto hot fill, if this does not blow trip switch then solinoid most likely at fault. Please ensure you disconnect power before touching wires. Good luck hope this helps

Testimonial: "Solution was spot on...except the washer was less than two weeks old, so I returned it to retailer for exchange"

Hot water hose pulsates when washer is filling up in warm setting.
It's the pressure from the hot water supply to your machine, if you fill from hot water tap, turn tap down a little to reduce the water flow. Should be OK then

Whirlpool #dp1040xtxb1 wont fill is my inlet plugged
If you select warm water wash, do you get warm, hot only or cold only? If temp OK, but fills slow one of the fill hose screens is clogged. If only hot or only cold the opposite fill valve solonoid is bad.

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

My new estate washer with 4 water selections actually only has 2, hot and cold. The warm water setting fills with lukewarm water for a while then shoots in cold water for a while and back and forth. In the...
Yes, this is normal. All newer washer have auto temp control fills. This is to meet energy saving requirements. The less hot water used the more energy saved. Most hot settings on washers give out basically lukewarm water. The detergent made today is made to work well with cooler temperature water, so things will still come out clean.

My whirlpool front load washing machine accept hot water and no cold water entering on the machine.
The water fill valve - The water fill valve is a mechanical and electrical part, the coils on the valve need electricity to mechanically open the valve to allow the water to flow into the washer....myth....the washer pumps water into itself...no, it does not. The fill valve opens and the house water pressure pushes the water into the washing machine.
No cold water or no hot water - The fill valve has two coils, one for the hot water and one for the cold water. It is possible that one of the coils can fail and you loose that filling ability. If the cold water coil quits, the hot will still work and during warm fill you will get hot water only and during a cold fill you will get no water at all.

You can test a fill valve live for 120 volts, power to a fill valve coil and no fill = a bad fill valve. You can also test the coils for continuity, no continuity = a bad fill valve. Some Maytag washers have a fuse in the fill valve circuit, if this fuse let go the washer will not fill. Fill valves can also from time to time stick open and not stop filling. If you have to shut off the fill valves to stop the water from filling in the washer, you have a bad fill valve and you will have to replace it.
