Samsung WA5451ANW/XAA02 will not stop filling with water

Samsung WA5451ANW/XAA02 top load will not stop filling with water. It will kick into wash mode, but just continues filling. I’ve tried several things to test the water pressure level sensor switch and the water intake valve. I actually went ahead and replaced the water intake valve and hose.

1) water intake valve: unplugged washer from electrical outlet while filling, the water stopped.
2) pressure level sensor switch:
a. removed the hose end from the switch and blew into hose, there was no obstruction going into the drum.
b. Removed hose from drum end, leaving it connected to the switch. Started fill cycle and after filling with enough water, blew into hose. The water stopped. This also appears to test the “hole in the hose” thought.
3) unplugged unit overnight

The washer just continues filling, even when the wash cycle begins. If the water intake valve and pressure level sensor switch appear to be working properly, then what next?
