Product review (5 stars): DIY Repair
This was a very easy repair for my 2012 Whirlpool Duet WFW94HEXW2 Washing Machine. I noticed a pool of water on my laundry room floor and semi-panicked. (Im a diyer/cheap/stay-at-home Mom who googles all issues, but had never had an issue with my front loader.) I eventually narrowed it down (via Google) to a leaking inlet valve and just ordered the part hoping it would work. *Unplug your washer* Turn off your water inlet hoses and remove hoses. Go ahead and change the hoses while you're back there. Place some towels inside the washer under the valve to catch the water and a bucket outside to catch the water from the hoses. Its a cheap replacement and worth it. Take the top of the washer off, (not the back or front - total pain!), remove 3 or so screws and replaced the valve. Put it all back together and hopefully its fixed. It was a $50 fix (with cost of hoses as well) and my washer was fixed. Good luck!
