I have a Kenmore 700 series and it shows f-5 code. I believe it keans the water temperature sensor. Every time we would want to wash inly hot water would come out. My question is :

  1. What is the cause
  2. How do i fix it
  3. Where are the parts located at Thank you .

Hi, What is the full model number of the washer? What happens when you select cold water only? Does the hot water come out or no water at all? Try swapping the water hoses over so that the cold is connected to the machine’s hot water inlet and the hot water to the machine’s cold water inlet and see what happens. If no cold water comes out when “hot” water wash is selected then there is a problem with the cold water hose (is tap on?) and possibly the filter at the end of the hose that connects to the machine may be blocked with sludge. If cold water comes out when “hot” water wash is selected this proves that the cold water hose and filter are OK. If no hot water comes out when “cold” water wash is selected then there may be a problem with the cold water inlet solenoid in the machine. If you search online for (insert full model number) parts you will get results for suppliers of the parts that have exploded diagrams showing the part locations and their cost.
