frigidaire works ok, bout only fills with cold water

We had our new washer replaced for that very reason there was nothing wrong with available, pressure, temperature or distance from hot water tank.

Both boards to do with settings and temperatures were replaced and nothing changed, still ends up with cool water on a hot water setting. Tech wrote a non- reparable report to factory rep. And machine was replaced. New replacement arrived and it did the exact same thing.

When tub finished filling the water measured, with a thermometer under 90 degrees Fahrenheit. Very unhappy about this new, $1,600 plus taxes machine.

Agree

The control cards need replacement to prevent mostly cold water entering tub when requesting a hot water wash.

For me they won’t accept this problem exists and is unacceptable.

My washer starts a hot wash with cold water after it’s half full or so it opens the hot water supply and fills until its reached its full point. When it stops filling I give the agitator a few turns to mix the hot and cold and measures the temp with a thermometer and it never gets more than 90 degrees Fahrenheit, that’s cooler than body temperature not close to the 150 degree water supply.

I am having the same issue. Two repair persons came out. Both of them say nothing is wrong. But the water in the tub fills first with just cold water. The little bit of hot water after that isn't enough to raise the temp to even body temperature. The repairman stated that the machine was designed to be energy-saving. This just isn't acceptable. Why do we have a hot water heater? To clean the clothes in warm or hot water to get them clean. Someone help as I need to return this item.

same problem piece of crap it wont do what it is set to never buying this brand again buying a new set as soon as i can so disapointed and mad sales

Put your hot water setting on hot and cycle to Bulky you'll get hot water after it fills with some cold if you can run the nearest hot water faucet to get hot water to the area if some sort of goofy energy saving that you only get hot water if it's set on bulky it's goofy but that's what I found out after trying the different settings

Originally the $100 installation charge consist of somebody who did not know how to hook up hot and cold hoses they had them reversed which I rectified immediately and then discovered that you only get hot water if the wash cycle is set on bulky run the nearest faucet until the water is very hot and you'll get steaming hot water in your double stack every time

Yes, I stood there today and kept checking as it was filling - very hot. However the water in the tub was cool/cold. It almost seems like there is water that remains under the tub from a previous wash, by then cold, and a significant amount of it. I'm sure that's crazy. Top load washer.

How much filling does it do before it quits?

What wash temperature did you select? Try hot-only, then try cold-only do they both fill? If so then the washer not only is getting the water but the valves inside is letting the water in. All that's left is the tubing/hoses between the tub and fill valves.

If one temperature doesn't fill then it could be that temperature line is plugged or the valve not working. Try swapping hot for cold hoses at the washer and see if cold fills with hot setting or hot with the cold setting.

My cold water hose has a strainer at the faucet and it was plugged so cold wouldn't fill. I tried filling with hot and that worked.

Touch the washer where the hoses connect & start the fill. You should feel the valve open and hear a click. If you don't then the valve is likely faulty.

As Pete said 20140624, disconnect the washers hose and turn on the water (with the hose in a bucket or the washer drain line). That proves the water supply to the washer. Everything else is "in the wash"er.
