Dripping water into the wash barrel
Water continues to drip into the wash barrel even when the machine has finished its cycle and is off.
Is this a good question?

Hi @rambo1 ,
Sounds like a leaking water inlet solenoid.
Close off either the hot or cold water tap that the machine connects to and see if the drips continue. If it is not the hot, try the cold
This will tell you which solenoid is the one with the problem.
What is the full model number of your washer?
Use the model number to search online for parts for the washer, e.g. Kenmore (insert full model number) parts.
Once on a replacement parts website page appropriate to your washer, scroll to find the water inlet solenoid(s) replacement part.
There may even be videos showing how to replace the solenoid. If not try YouTube. (Kenmore (insert model number) water inlet solenoid replacement)

I have this problem on my Bosch washing machine. I had the water inlet valve replaced and it did not solve the problem. Any other ideas?
Hi @Alexandra Furth,
Does it still happen with either the hot tap shut or the cold tap shut?
You said that you "....had the water inlet valve replaced..."
There are two inlet valves, one for hot and one for cold.
