The water valve (item 16 in section 02) is controlled by the pressure switch (item 27 in section 03).

It has a tube that runs down to the bottom of the tub, as water fills the tub, air is trapped in the tube. As the water rises, the air pressure in the tube increases until it reaches the switch’s set point then the switch activates turning off the water and starting the agitate.

Possible problems.

  1. Gunk blocking water from entering the tube. Remove the tube at the switch and blow into it to clear the plug.
  2. Cracks or holes in the tube allowing the air to escape. Inspect the tube. Also check that it is tight on the switch, if not, cut off half an inch and re-seat it.
  3. The switch is toast. Get a piece of tubing with the same internal diameter and attach this to the switch. Start a fill, then blow into the tube. You should be able to stop the water flow without blowing very hard.
    If you cannot stop it the switch is toast.

Note: That you may be able to stop it by blowing into then tubing and it may still be no good as it needs too much pressure to activate the switch.
So if the tubing is OK replace the switch.

Note: I am assuming that you can stop the water flow by unplugging or turning off the unit.
If the only way to stop it is to shut off the taps your water valve is probably shot. It is best to check that water flows when there is no voltage (120 volts) across the valves.
