    Hot water dribbles out of washer
    Hi,
    When I turn on the washer all I get is a dribble when I am in the hot /warm mode the water is cold... cold water pressure is fine and when I use the warm cool mode pressure is also fine but only cold water comes out... do I need a new washer or is this something I can fix myself. It is and old washer and a large repair bill would make me think about buying a new one... thanks for your help s.a.

    Remove the hot water hose and clean out the screen. It is probably clogged thus reducing the water flow
