In the cold cycle, the washer takes about 3 -4 times longer to fill than in the warm/hot cycle. I ahd a service repair man troubleshoot the problem. Hoses are clear and fitlers are clean and no blokage in water supply. He said that the Water Valve appears to plugged or affecting the file rate. Would this be the likely problem ? My real question is if I do nothing and continue with the operation, what is the failure mode of the valve ? Can it rupture and flood the floor ? Is it a metal valve or plastic ?
Will it do any harm to continue using it as is ?
