Problem
Hot water not being accepted into Maytag Washer
Tools
Screwdriver, pliers, putty knife
Repair & Advice
Checked to insure that the hot water supply was working, then started to check washer. I got stuck trying to figure out how to get into the washer, so I paid JustAnswers.com $15 for some expert advice. They told me to use a putty knife under the console to release a spring (very difficult to figure out how. I also discovered a screw head blocking the spring that I had to work putty knife over). He gave me exact part number to order. I ordered it from Parts Doctor, and it was delivered the next day. I installed it in a few minutes. Total time from my wife's complaint to the fix was 36 hours. Happy wife: happy life.
