Fagor Inlet Valve Not Closing

Washer fills with water even when switched off

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Stuck-open water inlet valve, Debris in valve seat, Excessive water pressure, Incorrectly installed or faulty aqua-stop hose

Safety: Turn off the water taps immediately and unplug the washer.

Confirm symptom: With power off and taps open, check if water continues to enter. If yes, the valve is mechanically stuck.
Inspect inlet valve: Remove top cover, access the valve, and check for debris. In most cases, replacement is more reliable than cleaning.
Fit new valve: Transfer hoses and connectors to a new Fagor-compatible inlet valve assembly.
