How to replace the water inlet valve on an Amana Top Load washing machine and also how we went about diagnosing the problem.

You can usually save money through Rakuten (formerly Ebates) if you order through repairclinic.com. Here's a link to sign up for it (it helps me out a little if you use this link, thanks):

Our Amana washing machine only worked on the cold cycle. The hot cycle would fill up very slowly, then drain and stop. Replacing the inlet valve fixed the problem. Thank you! This worked great and your step by step instructions were perfect.

Bought my new home and it came with this dryer . For some reason the water would not fill . It would start a bit then stop. I was literally going to go buy a whole now washer. Something told me to come to KZfaq and I stumbled upon your video . I followed what you did step by step . I purchased the new valve from Amazon . Now my washer is working . I’m just lost for words . I am not handy ATALL Lol . But following you I was able to fix the washer. . I am so grateful for this video . I can’t thank you enough . As a single mom of 4 , you saved me so much money . Thank you so much . !!! I could cry tears of joy right now . 😢❤

If you have rusty water, you can try cleaning the inlet valves out and reinstalling. I use lysol black toilet bowl cleaner get it inside and on the outside hookups (where the hoses hook to) rinse it all out, make sure the solenoid things are dry, and put it back in. I have to pull ours and clean it every couple months (it between then i have to switch hose sides) because it's completely orange and water flow is blocked. I so so so appreciate this video, because I was looking all over youtube and having a heck of a time. Your video was the clearest, easy to follow, just thank you so much! ❤️ I just had to pull it up again last night because I couldn't remember how to take the top part off, and then ended up cheating and using Allen key torx bits to get those screws off without taking the top panel off. It was a pain tho. Much easier doing it your way, I was being lazy. Lol

@KyleMerl absolutely! It would save the showerhead and faucets as well. It's been on my husband's to do list for a while now...🤣 I draw the line at learning plumbing, so that's one thing I can't do, fighting with the washer I can, so that's what happens. One day he'll get to it, there's no need to remind him every 6 months right?! 😁 Thanks for replying so kindly, that was my first youtube comment! Just wanted you to know you're appreciated!

Bought a new house and this washer came with it, seemed fine until the same thing happened to me. It’ll only start to fill on any temp setting for 5 seconds when you open then close the lid. Once closed, water rushes in for about 5 seconds then it stops unless I open and close the lid again.

@ Kyle, I have the same washer, it sprung a leak a week ago, so I changed the pump out, still was leaking water after that, so I took the back off again and just set there watching, water starting dripping constantly from the hot water side valve, so I ordered a new one, just installed it, when I start the fill cycle the valves just hum loudly, like it’s getting juice but no water will come out at all, and I’ve switched between all the water setting and nothing changes, so what do I need to do
@KyleMerl
@KyleMerl 4 ай бұрын
sorry I didn't see this comment until now. If you're sure all of the electrical connections are good then it sounds like this might be a problem with a different component in the washer. Not really sure what it would be, since I didn't have the same problem as you. But if it seems like the fill valve is working then you can at least rule that out. You'll probably need to do some more research to figure out the cause of the issue. When I research stuff like this I first try to learn how the appliance works "under the hood", and then try to think what parts could be the cause. Then I do more research to try to rule out each part. Sorry that's not really an answer to your question but I hope it helps and you figure it out!

I replaced the unit and am still getting drips on the cold side, though less frequent. All the hoses are a good hand tight and not leaking. Leak is on the inside, behind tub coming off the blue plastic piece of the intake valve, same as with the one I replaced. Trying to see if the water could be traveling from somewhere else? It has destroyed the floor. #baffled. BTW mine is older and came apart somewhat differently. Good vid. Thx.

Hey I know this is an old video but I just fixed my inlet valve on the same washing machine you don't have to necessarily replace it ,,on both ends there is a little green cap you can pop it off and the magnet things slide off both sides are interchangeable so you could swap them around to make sure that's actually the issue if it's not unscrew the white stem and clean out the rubber gasket also a little plastic piece in between the rubber gasket stretch the spring a little bit out put it back together and should work fine

I forgot to mention I think you have to plug in the wire upside down if you're using the other sides magneto thing ,,the part numbers are one number off , I would just take it apart and clean it stretch the spring out see if that fixes your issue before you swap them around

How did you remove the new ones coverings for the plugs? For the old it was easy with players but the new blue ones look sealed to it and I can’t get them off

we have no lights to our 1.5 yrs Amana washer just like yours. Do you have a video on changing fuses?

Nope, sorry. I've never had to do that before.

Thank you for this video! Quick question - if we have a leak where the red valve meets the metal bracket, is this fixable without replacing the entire valve? Thank you!

possibly but I doubt it. Personally, I would just replace it.

Have the same exact washer and I’m having the same problem. My washer is only 4 months old though. Wonder if this will fix my issue considering I only run cold water on mine

Probably... this seems to be a common problem with these things. Being only 4 months old it may be covered under warranty. It might also be less expensive to fix your self even with warranty though.

Do the inlets have n ay type of screen or filters,,i have a 3 year old amana thats short cycling and not getting clothes clean,,,we have well water and it often stops up certain appliances,,,

I dont remember to be honest. It definitely doesn't have a built in filter but the may be small screens on there. It's probably best to set up a separate filtration system if you don't already have one so the water is filtered before it gets to the washer. I wouldnt rely on the inlet valve to do it.

We recently had a freezing temperatures out here that caused a pipe to burst. The pressure was so strong the hot water connection broke off the back of our washer and when I run a fill cycle it trickles water from the hot side even when I use cold. Is there a simple fix for that or would it just be better to replace the whole inlet valve?

U might be able to get by with teflon tape temporarily. If the threads are messed up I'd just replace the whole valve. It's not that hard of a job

When I put mine on cold or tap cold hot water comes out instead and I already made sure the hoses weren’t backwards. Will replacing this part fix my issue as well?
@KyleMerl
@KyleMerl 2 жыл бұрын
Possibly. Could also be a clog maybe. Hard to say without doing more testing on it. If you switch the hoses is it still coming out hot?

Would this Valve be the reason my washer is dripping inside? Few drops of cold water into the drum from where the water comes out when it fills

Not sure... it's possible but u may need to do some more troubleshooting to really diagnose the issue.
