Whirlpool Washer Repair – Minerva, OH (TAWS700EQ2)

A Whirlpool washer in Minerva, Ohio stopped filling with water completely. The homeowner called us when their TAWS700EQ2 model wouldn’t start a wash cycle. We found the cold water valve had failed and wasn’t activating when signaled by the control board.

The Problem

The customer reported their washer won’t fill with water. The machine would start its cycle but no water entered the tub, leaving clothes dry and the wash cycle unable to proceed.

Diagnosis

The cold water valve was not activating, therefore the washer wouldn’t fill with water. When the control board sent the signal to open the water inlet, the valve assembly remained closed and blocked water flow into the drum.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: 285805 — water inlet valve assembly
• Work performed: Replaced the valve assembly
• Result: Washer now fills properly with water and completes wash cycles

Is It Worth Repairing?

This 2019 Whirlpool top-load washer is worth repairing. The TAWS700EQ2 is a reliable model that typically runs 12-15 years with proper maintenance. A water inlet valve replacement restores full function and gives you years of additional service life.

Maintenance Tips for Whirlpool Washers

• Check and clean the inlet valve screens annually to prevent sediment buildup that can cause valve failure
• Leave the lid open after cycles to air-dry the tub and prevent mold growth in Whirlpool top-loaders
• Use HE detergent only — regular detergent creates excess suds that strain the pump and valve systems
