I had removed both washer and dryer and thats when I discovered one was not shutting off so I had to do it. Changed both out, even though only one was defective. Was very pleased it worked out so well. Can't help but think the WD-40 spray/soak the day before was really helpful!
I mean.....look at that......

I had a similar problem here. Did some rerouting of the water pipes higher up the wall and installed ball valves instead of gate valves. Doesn't look pretty, but I don't care. Now if a washer hose bursts, a simple quick turn of a ball valve handle shuts the water off without having to move the washing machine.
