When The Washing Machine Dial Reaches The Rinse Cycle Position #1, The Water Valve Soleniod Seems To Oscilate Causeing The Fill Hose And Pipes To Vibrate. Any Advice Would Be Appreciated. I Was Advised That A New Water Valve May Fix?

Hi... Not an expert in your washer, but usually water hammer is caused by the tube’s bends, diameter, and/or water flow rate. To me your washer is not to be blamed. Most likely, this is not a new problem, it is there since installation of the washer. It kicks in during rinse because of the high water flow rate required during rinse. Try carefully to adjust the valve connecting the tube and the hose to avoid the dangerous water flow rate (not the solenoid). A certain valve position will solve the problem. If it is a new problem, then someone has played with this valve lately. Good luck.
