    Water inlet valve

    Hi, Does anyone have a spare water inlet valve or know where I can find a used one for a Westing House washer model#LA400EXW3. I saw a few new ones but I can not fit it into my budget for now. I am trying to get this washer running again, it washes much better than the Frigdaire. Thanks David
