I replaced the valve because the water didn't stop flowing when it should. I connected the new one and it now stops when it should.
But..... when I change the water temperature while it's filling, it spits and sputters alternating between hot and cold.
I'm afraid that I may have not got the electrical connections correct.
I made sure I got the right ones in the right places, but may have one reversed. How much damage can be done if I reverse one?

It is just air that is making the valve spit. It will not heart anything.

[DavidL0451]

Even after loads have been run.
If put it on cold, and it will spurt a little hot here and there.
If I put it on hot, it will spurt a little cold here and there.
I think (hope) that after I leave it alone it stays either hot or cold
All this is with the door open.
That may affect it some.
Seems like before I had a problem, you could hear it adjust the warm setting after the door closed.

If I did get one of the connections reversed, would it still function this much. Should this valve be in the schematic I found inside the front console?

Swap the connectors on your water solenoid,you have them backwards.

[DavidL0451]

The connector toward the front has violet wire coming in on the left and 2 red-white wires coming in on the right.
The connector on the side has two red-white wires coming in toward the back and a tan wire coming in toward the front.

Swap the violet wire with the tan wire.

[DavidL0451]

That would require I swap connectors.
I'm sure I have them in the right place.
Just not sure whether I have each backward (upsidedown) or not.

[DavidL0451]

I looked at the schematic.
Tan and violet are going to the right set of connectors.
Tan/RW or Violet/RW maybe reversed on one or both.
But, I'm thinking maybe something else is wrong.
Maybe the new part is defective?
