Best Answer

The water inlet valve isn't closing completely. This is on the back of the washer where the hoses connect. It should be held on with one or two screws and have a couple of wires connected to it. After shutting off the water and unplugging the washer, it should be easy to replace. Cost should be around $15 to $20.

Why do the water pipes rumble when hot water goes into my washer and only a small amount of hot water comes out into the washer?

You need to take the hoses off washer and check for trash in your machine valve. Make sure you turn off water to the machine


The problem is when there is no water flowing into the toilet even when the water valve is on?

If the shut off valve handle makes a full turn or more, it has a washer in it. The washer can come off the stem and be blocking the line. If the fill valve in the tank is in corner of the tank with a float that rides up and down a shaft, there is a washer in the top of it that can become stiff or blocked with minerals and stop the flow.


If delta faucets drip can they be adjusted?

Better yet, they can be fixed. First turn off the shut off valve below, then take off the handle and the nut below it and then uscrew the shaft and you'll see the washer or what remains of it. Take it to the store and choose another washer. re-build it the opposite way.


Why won't the hot water stop running even with the main shut off valve shut off?

Why does my faucet still run when it's turned off even after I changed the washer and O ring?

If it is a full stream, you put the cartridge in reversed. If it is just a drip, you may need to polish the bottom of the cartridge where it contacts the new cup. The metal plate on the cartridge can rust or have mineral build up on it. If it is the older style with a flat washer on the end of the stem, sometimes the seat the washer closes against can be pitted.


Purpose of electrical drip loop?

On an overhead service, during periods of rain, water will run along the overhead service wires. Water would run in to the service riser and in to the top of the meter, the drip loop allows the water to drip off of the conductors instead of running in to the meter.


What could the the cause of water to quit flowing to washer machine it is not the inlet screens or the washer only way to get water back is to turn off at main then turn on a faucet?

This is just a guess. If only the hot or the cold stops and not both of them, it might be that the washer in the shut off valve has come off and is plugging the line. When you shut off the main and then open another faucet, the back pressure in the line pushes the washer out. If this is the case, the washer should still be in the shut off valve. Turn off the main and take the stem out of the faucet. The washer should be the valve.
