Okay, here's what I found:

Hot water solenoid Voltage = 0
Cold water solenoid Voltage = 120

After reversing the wires:

Hot water wolenoid Voltage = 120
Cold water solenoid Voltage = 0

Ran the machine with wires reversed and got hot water only on the cold
water setting. No water is dispensed on the hot water setting.

So, is this a wiring problem or a control panel problem? Seems to me that
the hot water indicator is not sending a signal to the solenoid that
dispenses hot water.

Is this fixable? This is not a newer digital control panel. It's the old
style knobs that are manually rotated to select a setting.

I thought about doing just that. I suppose it can't hurt anything.
If I
reverse the wires and start getting only hot water and no cold, I
will at
least know that there's a bad connection somewhere in the wiring
harness
that controls the hot water valve. Does this seem reasonable?

Also, If I use a meter to check the resistance and voltage at the
solenoid, what should I be looking for?

Just verify that they are the same for both solenoids.
