Washing Machine hot water blend valve
Is this a picture of the washing machine hot water blend valve(s)? I found these electric solenoid valves under a sink, next to the washing machine.
I'm asking because I'm having a problem in my 05 Affinity with hot tap water. The water takes about 10 minutes before it heats up. My main blend/mixing valve (located behind the HyroHot tank) is working and the outside tap is off, so the next thing to check is the washing machine blend valve.
The fittings of the valve pictured on top felt hot, while the fittings of the valve on the bottom were cold. When I opened the hot water tap, the bottom valve felt lukewarm, as well as the water. So I'm guessing the bottom valve may be bad.
Any ideas?
Thx, Doug
