The problem is one of two parts. One is your water temperature switch or your hot water solinoid. To get to the back you must remove the hex screws on the back and then the panel is removeable.

Yes, the only other thing I would do and you may have done this is to put the hose directly over in the washer tub and turn the water on to check the flow. If that's good then replace the water valve.
SOURCE: Hot water not working
You say the cold water hose works on the hot water side? Or did you mean you've already eliminated the possible problem of new hoses?
If that is the case, it's definately water inlet valve. Sounds like you have a blockage in the screen (check that for me). If there's no lint stuck in the hot water screen, then you need to replace the inlet valve. It's possible the solenoid of the inlet valve on the hot side is stuck shut only allowing the cold to fill. Before you buy a new valve, take the old one out and play around with it. The plunger like solenoids will come off and you can check for debirs in there. If there's debris, clean it out and try the cycle again. If there's not debris, the part needs to be replaced.
Here's the part:

It appears your single inlet water valve has failed in this instance.
For replacement parts - head on over to PartSelect.com or RepairClinic.com and enter in your full model number for a full parts listing.
I recommend both sites because ...
FixYa has no affiliation with either site - I have been using and recommending them for years - trouble free.
PartSelect has a great schematic database for locating the part on your unit and great "testimonials" for each part that often times includes HOW-TO information.
RepairClinic has pictures of each part they sell and also a great how-to and troubleshooting for basic repairs.
If your unit has never been serviced - there should still be an original service manual enclosed in plastic taped to the inside of the shell.
In the service manual are Error codes, maintenance procedures, and troubleshooting steps you can follow.
Anything too complicated or beyond your scope should be handled by a professional.
If you think you want to tackle the repair - and have gotten stuck on a step - reply to your question and I will be glad to help you out.
