Obviously the first thing to check is that water is coming through the cold hose some times the on off valve for the hose can get blocked or has not been turned fully on and lime scale blocks the remaining flow. if you have water coming out of the hose swap the hot and cold over this will give you the major insight as to the valve on the back were the hose connects is working listen to see on a cold setting if the valve buzzes like the hot does if not and you can cold fill by having the cold & hot swapped then it is the inlet valve that needs swapping out for a new one.

2015. Why doesn't temperature control return from hot to cold?

The heat for the cabin is taken from the circulating water in the engine cooling system. When you operate the knob/dial, it activates a valve which allows the water to flow through the venting system. It is possible that the valve may be malfunctioning, so that when you return to colder air, the hot water is still circulating.

Whirlpool model WTW5310VQO

i've found problems with the temp. switch on this washer part number W10184148 and it's around 40 dollars,also on the rinse cycle the washer only uses cold water.what happens when you use just the hot?i had a lady that her water would start to fill and then the water would stop and the pipes in the house would start making a banging sound.if you order the part from http://www.repairclinic.com/PartDetail/Switch/W10184148/1468990 repair clinic and if this isn't your problem which i think it is from how you discribe it you can send the part back and get your money back for up to a year.good luck with your washer and next time you buy something and it doesn't work right get right on it

Is it a cold water or hot water fill

It's your choice.There's only a single supply hose and with most dishwashers that means cold fill only, but as this is a compact basic worktop model the manual supplied suggests that users connect to a hot water supply.

In real-life situations though, the water drawn from the hot supply often isn't instantly hot so all you do is drain cold or tepid water from the supply pipe and let it get replaced with wasted hot water which then cools in the pipe! If the machine features condenser drying like many dishwashers, then cold water is essential for it to work. A final consideration is that unless your hot water is supplied at mains pressure (such as in a combi-boiler or megaflo system) then the water pressure from a hot water storage tank will not often be high enough and you'll have to use the cold supply.

Maytag MDS2351- came home one day and noticed water coming from where u get the ice and water when i opened the freezer it was not cool and everything i had in there was defrosted and then when i went to...

Your fridge operates like that: a compressor liquefies freon vapours; this creates heat so the hot liquid goes thru a cooling radiator with a fan on it (these 2 elements are at the rear bottom of the fridge) the freon fluid goes to an evaporator, turns to vapour and absorbs heat in the process, cooling the evaporator; a fan blows air over the evaporator and spreads the cooled air all over the fridge; the vapours return to the compressor.
In the rear of the fridge you should make sure that the radiator is clean and the fan working; inside the fridge you should make sure that the evaporator is not covered in ice and/or dirt and its fan is working. If necessary clean both.
If they are clean , the fans work but the evaporator isn't cold then either the freon circuit has sprung a leak and all the fluid has been lost or the compressor isn't working - to find out which just put your hands on the compressor : if it's hot and vibrates the fluid has been lost, if it doesn't vibrates then the compressor isn't working.
The compressor isn't working because either the thermostat or itself have failed. To find out which the compressor will have to be powered directly from the mains: if it starts then the thermostat must be replaced, if it doesn't the compressor will.
To fix the freon circuit or to replace the compressor a certified professional is mandatory, you must call one.

I have recently installed a washer in my shop. Only the cold water hose is hooked up since I only have cold water in the shop. I ran the first load and as it filled water is spraying out of the hot water...

First check that you have selected a cold water only cycle. Otherwise the cold water will backfeed through the hot water inlet. If that doesn't help or isn't possible, I suggest you buy a blank cap to screw over the hot water inlet. You should be able to get one from any plumbing store. Hope that helps.

The water is too hot coming out of the shower and if I turn the handle it does not cool enough. It is a Moen exactemp control.

You have the scald guard set to high. Take off the handle and the face plate. You will see a small plastic half moon looking part with teeth. Yours is probably set all the way one way which keeps the cold water side restricted and the hot side fully open. Carefully pull the half moon part out and rotate in about halfway and reinstall. That will give you equal cold and hot water flow. If that isn't right for your needs, you can play with the settings.
