William H St Louis , MO December 30, 2014 No hot water would fill the washer in any cycle or temperature setting if the temperature setting was set to "hot" absolutely nothing would happen when turned on (cold washes worked fine) Replaced the water temperature selector switch. After watching a YouTube video for our GE top loading washer showing the switch replacement, I replace the switch in under 5 minutes! Very easy!

Jason E Pinnacle , NC January 23, 2021 Appliance: General Electric Washer GTWN2800D1WW No water when set to cold. Worked when set to warm or hot. Since there was no cold water at the start of the cycle, and all rinse cycles on this washer use cold water, I first started the rinse cycle. The washer did fill with water during the rinse cycle, confirming that it was not the water valve. This replacement is very simple. I took a picture of the wires on the switch before removing because there are 4 of them and the connectors are all the same.

Beverly C Louisville , GA September 30, 2016 Washer would not fill with cold water set on wash but would fill set on rinse I can only comment on the speed of delivery--ordered the part Sunday afternoon and it was delivered Tuesday. Can't beat that. On a whim, I tried the washer on cold and it worked. I'll keep the part --it was very reasonably priced. I may need it in the future. I appreciated the advice I received and the video. Read More... 2 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: Less than 15 minutes
