Four Coil Water Valve Removal
1.
Turn the house water supply off to the washer
and disconnect power to the washer.
2. Remove backsplash assembly (see

under
Control Panel
Housing / Backsplash Assembly
section of
this service guide).
3. Disconnect the harness from the valve.
4. Remove three hex-head screws securing the
valve to the top cover and pull the valve up.
The thermistor can now be removed by prying
up from under the metal lip of the thermistor
(be sure the O-ring seal comes out as well.)
5. There are four replaceable rubber seals
on the water valve where it connects to the
dispenser box. They come with new valves
and can be ordered separately.
The water valves are located inside the
backsplash assembly. The four-solenoid water
valve allows water to flow into the dispenser
assembly. The water valves are located and
accessed from inside the backsplash.
Water Valve Diagnosing
The four-solenoid valve requires 120 VAC to
activate the coils. The resistance of the four-coil
valve can be check from the J402 connector for
600/605 models and for all other models J802
connector on the control.
