How can a repair the water level sensor on my Kenmore 80 Series washer?

My washer continues to fill (and floods my house) on any water level setting. Is this sensor fairly easy to get to and repair/replace? Possibly a wire was broken or shaken loose on the previous (out of balance) spin cycle?

Hello,

Did the overfilling start the same time the washer went out of balance? If so, its possible that the air tube on the water level switch fell off the switch or air dome. If it was not at the same time you could have a bad fill valve.
