Thanks homie! FIXED IT! $150 part. SAVED ME $3000 for a new set! Had these bastards I think over 16 years!

[@lynnmcneair2906]

Thank you so very much! My husband said we’d just get a new washer. But I said let me try to fix it first…I did it! With your clear instructions, I did it!!

[@brianetz]

I ordered the part on amazon, and followed this video and it took me exactly 25 minutes from start to finish. Thanks a ton!!! This video was so helpful.

[@lisamc7053]

brianetz would you please provide me the amazon link for the part you ordered. I am hoping this is the issue my machine is having.

[@wolvesmarch1274]

What is the part number?…mine finally went

[@carlpfeiffer3403]

Still a great video. I just used it and you help save me hundreds of dollars for a service / repair call. Many thanks!

Add my compliments to all of the others. Perfect for my need and did not skip any steps, assuming I knew how to do any part of this. Nicely done!

[@henryj.8528]

Great Video, Thanks for the help

[@tazmankb26]

Thanks man- well done and very well explained. I hope this solves my LF error issue.

[@JuanMoreno2876]

Did this fixed your LF problem?

[@tazmankb26]

@@JuanMoreno2876 yes

[@timwalsh8198]

any way to adjust the water level on a WTW8500DC0? does this part play a role in that?

[@cgoliveri]

So helpful, thanks!!!

[@ShawnMtz_78]

Cool...hopefully Monday mine will be arriving through Amazon... but, I'm in Houston so no telling how our weather will be...

[@sethrowe5461]

Thanks for the video!!!

[@amandag5132]

Thank you so much. I had 3 handymen look at my washer that won't fill and they all said to buy a new washer. I need to go the cheaper route. Thanks for giving a mom a break. Do recommend a parts shop I can order it from?

[@sts520mfr6]

Thanks. Good video

[@loso441]

thanks bud this looks like exactly what i got to do , my washer keeps leaking inside the washer drum i’m guessing i got to replace the water valve

[@christopherrodrigue625]

I followed the video exactly. Before trying to repair the washer there was an LD code, and some water still in the tub. I unplugged it and cleaned out the water and plugged it back in. Everything works but the machine won't draw water? I am leaving the new inlet valve in, but I can't afford a service call. Could it be one of the pumps? Thanks in advance if you answer.

[@angelaolsen545]

Does anyone have a link for the new water valve?

[@xtronkillmaster2517]

How do you know which side is hot water?

[@somegirl5rock]

Can you explain what causes these valves to go bad I've never had a washing machine with this issue. I really like my Cabrio I just wish it had longer lasting parts

[@chiefestilette9572]

I have one of them Whirlpool Cabrio and it does not spin to let the water out what's wrong with it please let me know Cajun land Church Point Louisiana

[@joshburns493]

Thanks

[@rick8676]

I could not get my connectors to pop off, maybe they are soldered too. I sure would appreciate if videos (and I am not just picking on you) would show the technique for the various connector, watching the motherboard flex while you pull makes me queasy. I was hoping the video would get into the nuts and bolts of the valve itself.

[@eddiewilliams1278]

Do you know if this will fix the LF ERROR?

[@tazmankb26]

I'm trying to determine the same thing.

[@fccutube]

my connectors were soldered

[@eescobedo3831]

Im getting the LF code and it does not fill with water on wash cycle. But it does fill if i do the clean washer cycle utility option. Is this the problem?

[@Heftybone77]

This is exactly what is happening to mine..... can you share how you fixed it? Did this valve fix the issue?

[@eddiewilliams1278]

Any answer on this?

[@FADES3d]

I have a newer Cabrio washer. This is not how they come apart now. Ugh...

[@tylerprins5224]

I'm trying to figure out why I have water leaking into my tub even when the washer is not on..... Would this part being bad be the problem by any chance?

[@Avies48]

It might be one of the filters either broken or being bypassed, turn off water and remove each hose from back of washer and try with a pair of needle nose plyers to remove or pull out each filter, then replace them

[@7cooty7]

I also have water leaking when the machine is off, it is coming out of the soap dispenser

[@hh.6505]

Did you ever find a resolution to your issue? Mine is doing the same thing.

[@euphoria9148]

I'm aware this is an old video, but could anyone provide the parts number for this machine please??

[@MrNo-ai_bs]

Whats the part # for inlet valve

[@daveh8958]

W10853723

[@ejg34]

Is this the lf error code?

[@honeymle]

Should be - Most of the time they’re giving an E1 code to which is some kind of electrical cut off

[@jdlowery3645]

Why won’t my washer drain

[@eyeofhorus70]

That’s not how you get to the hoses underneath. You just need to pop the lid clips from the front and the whole top will simply flip up.
The way you did it will mess up your hinges.

[@LesT537]

Some models do not have clips under the lid front. You have to do it the way he is showing.

[@danroode2094]

My cabrio looks nothing like this. This video is not helpful

[@ericatransou6279]

That’s the video fault. Get over yourself.

[@timd9430]

You could have worded this a little better. I.e. My Cabrio is obviously a different version than shown here, but thank you for trying to help! I'll keep searching!
