Maytag Washer "No Hot Water" Connundrum
\"Share your knowledge. It\'s a way to achieve immortality\" --Dalai Lama ------------------------------------- I have a Maytag washing machine, Serial No. LAT7304AAE, that does not dispense hot water. I have tried the usual and more obvious suggestions, but the problem persists. Here's what I have done: 1. Verified that hot and cold water is available. 2, Intake hoses are connected to water valves that are turned on. 3. Checked the screen on the water inlet valve. There are no obstructions. 4. Replaced the water inlet valve with part #22001274. Replacement of the water inlet (solenoid) valve resulted in no change. The washing machine will not dispense any water when the hot water setting is selected. Resetting the temperature control knob to cold water results in cold water. Warm water setting results in dispensing of cold water only. Please note that the symptoms before and after replacing the water inlet are identical. I find it hard to believe that I have a brand new part with the same problem as the original part. Any suggestions? Unfortunately, I do not have the model number of the machine handy. It is located in another house and I don't have immediate access. Can the serial number be cross-referenced to determine the model number? This is an older top loading machine. The control panel consists of push/pull type knobs. Thanks for your suggestions to help me solve this problem. ##-----------------------------------------------## Delivered via http://www.thestuccocompany.com/ Building Construction and Maintenance Forum Web and RSS access to your favorite newsgroup - alt.home.repair - 328528 messages and counting! ##-----------------------------------------------## |
