### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tub wasn't filling with water on any cycle
*by J***. on January 16, 2017*

Maytag Centennial machine. MVWC6ESWW1I've only had the new part for several days but it is working great so far. My problem was the tub not filling at all with water although the spin cycles worked.From reading comments here and elsewhere, this part is notorious for causing the following problems:Tub not filling with water at all - spin cycles workIncorrect water levelAgitator running while fillingWater temperature issues'dumping' water during final spinThe part was very easy to remove and install. Look at the youtube videos by part number (as many as you can) until you are confident.Basically, it goes like this:Unplug machine. Remove knob, lift up control panel.Disconnect wire harnesses and the clear tube. Place your finger under the tab while pulling the tab toward you (away from the machine).While holding the tab, turn switch counter clockwise until you can remove it. Install new switch in reverse order. You should hear it click into place.If I run into any issues with the switch, I will post an update.UPDATE: After 6 months, washer is working fine. No issues since installing this switch.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ EUREKA !  It Works Perfectly
*by J***R on April 3, 2018*

Our 8 year old Whirlpool washer would start immediately agitating when turned on, and no water fill at all. After a bit of googling the evidence led to a faulty water sensor switch. I tried several online appliance parts sites and the prices ranged from $72 to $90. Then I did another search and to my surprise found Amazon was selling the part as well for a much lower price comparatively. Ordering from Amazon seemed like the right bet. And to my delight the switch was the answer to the problem.This switch is an exact replacement (the package says "Genuine Whirlpool Quality" for the one its replacing.One more thing. I have to thank Amazon with a resounding applause for getting this part to me in just one day. This whole event could have taken a lot more time and been more expensive. Amazon made it a quick, simple, and cheap little ordeal.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fixed the problem
*by S***E on February 11, 2024*

I was able to easily install this in my half hour lunch. Saved me from having to buy a new washer. Glad I did this myself! Simple fix, did 2 loads so far, washer now working perfectly 👌
