    Kenmore 700 series washer
    I only get cold water on both setting of the washer. No hot water at any time. Checked the hot water line no block. Switched lines can only get hot coming in from cold line.

    You may have a bad hot water solenoid. You will need to remove the back to be able to get to the valve, or possibly the top may be the best route. Just press in on two clips on each side of front with putty knife. Two wires plug onto each solenoid. Remove at least one wire (unplug unit from wall receptacle.) and using an ohm meter put a lead on each prong with meter set to kilo-ohms. It should read from 1-3 kilo-ohms, if not, replace solenoid which should be easy. You may have to replace entire valve. These manuals may help: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8010163/Whirlpool%20Washers.zip
