Disconnect the machine, pull it out so you can access the rear panel. The hot water valve is the part connected to the hot water hose. :wink:

my washer dryer has a metal plate just behind the pipe fitting.

i've looked at the valve and it looks like i will need to take the metal plate off first and then replace it.

does that make sense, and is this the way to do it?
