Thank you. I have the exact same washer/problem. Called a repairman and it was going to be $300+ now I'll just fix it myself. You're a wallet saver, thank you from a single mom needing to save money.
You explained this wonderfully! My washer stopped filling up with water and kept giving me LF error! I ordered the part off amazon and saved the video for when it gets here! Thank you so much
Listen, I believe in giving a guy credit when it's due....and you deserve plenty!!!! I was struggling to find a video my washer AND instructions on how to get the console off. You did both and then some....I owe you a beer (and a few bucks)! You saved my wallet a few dollars. Thanks!
Please help I have this same exact washer, it smells bad and I know the water doesn't completely drain out I can move the tub and I hear water swishing in there. I told the repair man about this and he acted like that it's normal and didn't do anything about it and is there a filter I need to check?
After watching this video I ordered the part for our Maytag washer and was able to replace the part. watching made it a lot easier and saved me a big repair bill I spent 39.00 dollars total
Thanks to this video my wife and I were able to correctly diagnose and fix the leaking issue in our washer. It was squealing and leaking water whenever the water ran and when we removed it we found out that it was filled with sediment and debris. Very helpful video that helped save us a few hundred bucks. Thanks again.
This is a great video that helped me save hundreds of dollars. Appreciate the help and perfect directions. Solved the problem of our Maytag washer constantly dripping water into the drum nonstop. Thanks!!
Great video! Based on the comments these inlet valves go bad a lot so you are saving people a lot of money. A lot of people have had a problem getting the wire connectors off and I came close to giving up because I couldn't get any of them off no matter how much I wiggled and pulled. I finally used a fairly large flat head screwdriver right up in that gap in the middle and gave it a couple of gentle taps with a hammer and they came right off.
Excellent job on your video! Watching video helped me get our Maytag washer back in service with your handy tips on water inlet valve repair. I found cold water valve not opening all the way so I swapped control wires to warm water valve and now washer is filling correctly. Keep up the good work! Thanks!
Kudos and thanks. This was spot on. Those top console tabs were a b%$ch to pop off. I didn’t have enough strength in my fingers to compress them, so instead I was able to push one end with a screwdriver from the top by removing the metal back of the console. It was held with 5 quarter inch hex screws. That seemed a lot easier to see, plus no contortion under the lid and behind the basket. The oem valve was $26 next day delivery from Amazon with 10 year guarantee. Maytag wanted $112 plus shipping. My Maytag model was MVWB865GW0 and looked identical to the one in the video. The machine was only 3 years old when the hot water valve started leaking because it wasn’t completely shutting off. This new machine replaced a 35 year old Kenmore that I took out of service still working perfectly as a gift to the queen to modernize. She wants to kill me now. This top of the line Maytag doesn’t clean as well, leaves soap in the clothes and was very expensive. The only repair I made to the Kenmore was to replace the mechanical timer unit that wore out after about 25 years. I could have replaced the mechanical transmission, bearings and motor and had plenty of money left over. Now I know why laundromats keep the old mechanical machines. The new ones suck.
Commenting to bump this video in the search engine. This was exactly what I needed to solve my LF message on mine. Saved me a ton of money. I owe you a beer my guy.
I have a Bravos XL washer and looks just like your commercial one and I have the same leak. I found your video helpful to get the control panel off. Got my part ordered from your link and had a coupon code for 10% off on the page to apply to it as well. Thank you for your video!
The Bravos XL and some other commercial HE models are the same layout (Mine is MVW765FW0) and this video was so helpful! While we didn't have a leak, we got the LF error and no water was coming in. Upon inspection, the input lines were working but we found the cold cylinder valve had a slight crack in it and would fail diagnostics. Replacing the water inlet valves did the trick!!! Thanks again.
Thanks for the vid. My machine wouldn’t fill, showing a LF error code. It would shut down. I ordered a replacement water valve (Amazon for around $40) and installed it in about 20 minutes. Next time it’ll take half that time. Biggest challenge was releasing the clips (couldn’t get my paws up in there so carefully used a blade from the top to release). It now works. I loved saving the $300 + it would have cost otherwise.
This is my washer and your directions are awesome! However, we are still having a major issue getting the pins pushed in! Taking a break for tonight and will try again tomorrow!! Thank you for all of this though.
Thanks for this Video! I would never have found how to access the water inlet valves. The hard part was to get the wire connectors off without damaging them. My washer would only let a small amount of water in. I replaced the water valve and that fixed it.
Finally ! Took forever to find a video with my exact washer ( most didn’t have agitator) I researched how to put in test mode & water ran with each selection unfortunately no matter what setting I use or what tricks I try the water level won’t even halfway cover my clothes. Even after a full cycle they’re covered in lint & powder v
I have the same issue as well since it was brand new it just does not put enough water into the basin even with Max fill setting. I literally have to put in 4 gallons of hot water on top of the dry clothes before I start the cycle or it will not wash the clothes What a piece of junk this machine is.
For those struggling to get the connectors off, I took a tiny flathead and put it on the top of the connector where it looks like a white "T" and tapped on the back end of the screwdriver. Only thing that worked to get those off. Wiggling wasn't cutting it.
Use a thin "putty knife" protect the console with duct tape! .Im a 35 year appliance tech. You do a super job on.your video presentations..keep them coming !
Bro, super appreciate you showing us this. Really helpful. I have this same washer. I was looking for something to do and wanted to do maintenance to the washer.
You don’t have to reach under and “squeeze those pins” to take the control panel off. You can just slide a putty knife under the corners of the control panel and it will roll rite up.
@@garethhale1672 push an 1” putty knife straight towards the back about 1/2-1 inch from the end of the panel. It has a fair amount of pressure but as you get it pushed all the way back roll the panel towards the back to get it lose. Then do the same on the other side and it will pop rite off.
@Aaron Fuller Thank you! I didn't mean to come off as a jersey. Just super frustrated and I couldnt get the butter knife trick to work. Got it done with a slender putty knife though.
A few months later (if that long) you notice water leaking from the same exact spot. Just a Hint from a 30+ year technician. Add a little O-ring lubricant to the black seals where they go into the water distribution channels. They'll seat easier and prevent having to replace the inlet valve again, lol.
Great video!!! The only thing I would add is to hook the water lines back up and turn the water on before placing the control panel back on and run a cycle and check for leaks around the new water inlet because the new one I recieved was defective causing it to leak water. Could cost you a small fortune in water damage to your floor if you dont check it for a leak. Again very useful video.
found water in the same place u did and traced it back...grommets seem ok but rplcing whole valve anyway...thanks for the vid and sharing. I hope this will fix the issue. I had taped paper towels around every other valve and hose connection and when i didn't find them wet all and traced the drops i knew this had to be the place. Some times it would leak and then go weeks without any issue.
Very useful video BUT reality check for people attempting this repair: The instructions at 0:41 is absolutely impossible to achieve and perform!! Opening that panel is on a difficulty scale of 9.5 (out of 10). The realistic way to open this panel is getting a putty knife and pushing into those clips from the corners. It requires LOTS of force. Maytag has not made this process easy. Just thought I pass this on to others.
ruclips.net/video/IpLF007BXmw/видео.htmlsi=1oWuQmpXohrLm-bp - the whole top panel can slide off and makes it MUCH easier to access the console panel clips
Best video ever! We have the exact same washer and had the exact same problem. I got an estimate for $350, then saw this video, bought the part for $53, and did it myself. I'd love to buy you a beer (send you the money) if there's a way to do that - let me know!. PS. The top console didn't clip back down, and it's a little loose now. Does that matter?
THANK YOU!!! Same exact washer and purchased same year released. Just now experiencing issues. And we have debris as well. Happened After town worked on sewage/ water in front of our home- tore entire road up- seems debris backed into our home! Of course we carry the fix it bills- town can do no wrong! Side note still water issues after the “fix” can you share or suggest where to purchase replacement part? Lots fraudulent places online- thanks in advance.
For those struggling to get to the spring clips that hold the console panel in place: it’s possible to pull off the whole top and lift it up (at least for model MVWB765FW3). There’s two additional hex screws you’ll need to remove from the back first. Then the whole top slides toward the front of the machine and can be lifted up (be sure to tape the cover down first). After that it was super easy to release the springs. Source: ruclips.net/video/IpLF007BXmw/видео.htmlsi=1oWuQmpXohrLm-bp
Thank you for the video! I have the exact same washer however, my water leaks constantly from the inside main pour spout. This is likely the inlet valve too, right?
Can not get to the left pin. In video you show the right side and there is a little black box there but it’s not in the way you can still pinch that super easy. On the left side there is something in the way that does let you squeeze the front part. I tried what other comments said about just using a putty/butter knife but that’s not working either. Any other suggestions?
@@eddiebicakci7363 According to most people on here it was like a miracle that I was able to reach them and squeeze them. But, some say you can put something like a butter knife in from outside the head and slide it to pop them. Check the other comments and see what others tried and maybe it will help.
Great video. I purchased the water inlet valve and was able to try and replace it. The problem I was having trouble with is that the rubber gaskets seem like they are not fitting in well. They push up further on the piece, so I tried taking them off and putting them in the holes. Then I put the inlet valve on. It pushed one of them in further and when I turned it on, both ways, I got water spurting out. Any suggestions?
@@stevescoolstuff126 Steve, I am so sorry I forgot to respond back. I took your advice and replaced the old gaskets onto the new piece and it worked. Thank you so much for the advice!
I cant get the connectors on the inlet valve off, and im really not trying to wait two weeks for another part, is there a easier way to remove em. It seemed simple in the video
I changed the inlet valve and washer started working. Now it seems like something else is wrong. The countdown timer is erratically going down, up, down, up... it's also filling the tub more that normal. Any idea what else I need to do?
Rookie question here… after turning off the water, is it expected to have a lot of pressure built up? Making me nervous how much water seems to be “spraying” as I loosen!
My Maytag Bravos XL will not stop filling up with water. I have to turn off the machine for it to drain all the water. Any idea what is causing the problem? I think it's the main control board possibly or water level switch? 🤔
@@rahzvlogs2994 ours is doing the same thing, service guy said it was the water inlet valve. Purchased on Amazon, 34.99. I'm going to try this on our bravos xl and see if it works.
Thanks for the video...needed to replace the inlet valve for my Maytag Bravos XL. Same setup, except the tab you squeeze on the side by the inlet valve is hard to get to. I used a few flat head screw drivers to pinch the tab and pry it up.
I bought mine used a few weeks ago... Was running ok as far as I know. Today I been testing different cycles and its not filling up at all. I set it to normal then lihht soil level and it goes back n forth from sensing to wash then eventually goes to done. Any ideas??
So my washer is dripping water into the washer filling it up by just dripping little by littlein 2 days of no use it is almost half way full would this bee the same Valve that needs to be replaced?
Forget about it! I got them disconnected! They were tough. So if someone else after me has trouble you really need to wiggle them left to right until they losen up!
So I have a Maytag Top and it staying stuck on the sensing light when I try to start a load, I was told by a repair guy that I need to replace those Same Valves? ANYBODY have any advice"
Our washer won't fill with enough water on any setting except deep water wash and it has to be on extra heavy soil. But when we use that setting the agitator won't work correctly. If we use any other setting the agitator works but it won't fill up with enough water. Would a new inlet valve fix this issue?
Would be a life saver if someone could share next steps for Maytag MVWB766FW1 off balance for any size load but empty. Replaced suspension rods. Leveled front to back side to side. Checked washer plate and tower for soundnesses which was nice and tight. Nothing in between drum and linear. Performs wash cycle and initial low speed spin to drain tub but as soon as it picks up from there bang bang bang off balance and walks. At a loss!? 🤷
I got the same washer just bought the same part as in the video and for the life of me I can't get them wire Clips off those connectors without feeling like I'm going to break something they don't budge
@@stevescoolstuff126 I got them off all I did was take a flathead screwdriver and pushback from the head of the clip and it popped right off. Currently doing a test run cycle now
Can you share part number? My machine is Maytag commercial mvwb765fw0 Looks EXACTLY like yours. I’m getting “compatible” part numbers and worry it actually may not be. When I look into details my machine model number is NOT listed as compatible. So not sure why it’s coming back as compatible. Given you can still answer this question. Thanks again.
Great video, but where is the link to the replacement part? I see in the comments you say to click on the down arrow and click read more??? What arrow..

Rookie question here… after turning off the water, is it expected to have a lot of pressure built up? Making me nervous how much water seems to be “spraying” as I loosen!
That’s always a possibility.
Great video, thanks!
You’re welcome!
Love your video thanks for saving me some $.
Glad I could help.
can u buy just the inlet screens ? or just buy the whole valve
I’m not sure.
My Maytag Bravos XL will not stop filling up with water. I have to turn off the machine for it to drain all the water. Any idea what is causing the problem? I think it's the main control board possibly or water level switch? 🤔
Wish I could be of some help to you but ive never seen that happen .
@@stevescoolstuff126 okay ty. I will figure it out somehow.
@@rahzvlogs2994 ours is doing the same thing, service guy said it was the water inlet valve. Purchased on Amazon, 34.99. I'm going to try this on our bravos xl and see if it works.
Pls help me find the link to the part. GREAT VIDEO, thanks.
Click the down arrow next to the video description. It’s down there. Then click read more
Thank you 🙏 I got it fixed. 😃
Thanks for the video...needed to replace the inlet valve for my Maytag Bravos XL. Same setup, except the tab you squeeze on the side by the inlet valve is hard to get to. I used a few flat head screw drivers to pinch the tab and pry it up.
Any idea where the water temperature sensor is on this thing ?
Never tried looking for it actually. Wish I could help.
I just need to clean the filters. Anyone know if you can just pull the filters out and clean them?
I bought mine used a few weeks ago...
Was running ok as far as I know. Today I been testing different cycles and its not filling up at all.
I set it to normal then lihht soil level and it goes back n forth from sensing to wash then eventually goes to done. Any ideas??
Sorry I don’t have an answer for that.
If you bought yours a few weeks ago then you should have warranty
So my washer is dripping water into the washer filling it up by just dripping little by littlein 2 days of no use it is almost half way full would this bee the same Valve that needs to be replaced?
More than likely
@@stevescoolstuff126 Great! Will start working on it. Thanks
Can you give me a tip on how to disconnect the inlet connectors! They are tight and I can't get them loose.
Forget about it! I got them disconnected! They were tough. So if someone else after me has trouble you really need to wiggle them left to right until they losen up!
Oh and sorry about my manners: Thank you very much for doing this video!!
I have the same exact one and problem. Can you tell what part number you used?
There is an Amazon link in the description.
So I have a Maytag Top and it staying stuck on the sensing light when I try to start a load, I was told by a repair guy that I need to replace those Same Valves? ANYBODY have any advice"
Our washer won't fill with enough water on any setting except deep water wash and it has to be on extra heavy soil. But when we use that setting the agitator won't work correctly. If we use any other setting the agitator works but it won't fill up with enough water.
Would a new inlet valve fix this issue?
I honestly don’t know but read through the rest of the comments and see if anyone else said that fixed it for them
How do I get the small wire clamps off of inlet valve
Would be a life saver if someone could share next steps for Maytag MVWB766FW1 off balance for any size load but empty.
Replaced suspension rods. Leveled front to back side to side. Checked washer plate and tower for soundnesses which was nice and tight. Nothing in between drum and linear. Performs wash cycle and initial low speed spin to drain tub but as soon as it picks up from there bang bang bang off balance and walks.
At a loss!? 🤷
Why DiY when still under Warranty??? were you able to recoop your $31 from maytag???
Mine will turn on but then dings and turns off! Any chance you have a repair video for this issue?? Have EXACT same machine! TIA!
Sorry. I have no idea what that could be.
Skillet incenable
I got the same washer just bought the same part as in the video and for the life of me I can't get them wire Clips off those connectors without feeling like I'm going to break something they don't budge
I guess just keep wiggling them
@@stevescoolstuff126 I got them off all I did was take a flathead screwdriver and pushback from the head of the clip and it popped right off. Currently doing a test run cycle now
Nice video connections r shall we say tight! Flathead n thors hammer
Thanks!
H9w do I replace the filter to this washing machine?
I have the same machine and it does not distribute water at all. Could replacing this same part fix my problem?
I'm not sure but it would be cheap to try.
Can you share part number? My machine is Maytag commercial mvwb765fw0 Looks EXACTLY like yours. I’m getting “compatible” part numbers and worry it actually may not be. When I look into details my machine model number is NOT listed as compatible. So not sure why it’s coming back as compatible. Given you can still answer this question. Thanks again.
CÓDIGO DE LA PIEZA ?

Does anyone know how to replace the Thermistor Sensor?
