I am plumbing in my washing machine and the copper pipe with blue tap/switch on it has no water from it when you open it. The hot version works fine. Both are side arms from the nearby sink supply which both work fine. Help much appreciated! Thank you.
 
Most likely scenario is that the blue plastic bit is turning, but the valve underneath is not.
Remove the blue bit, small screw, and turn the bit underneath with spanner/pliers.

Good idea to replace the valve so that operation is easy in the future when you need it.
 
You were right. Sorted. Thank you!
