My refrigerator has two water valves - for control of the water dispenser and ice maker. Are the valves identical parts? E.K.
E.k. for Model Number FRS26ZRFW1
Answer Hello E.K! The water valves are separate parts. The ice maker water valve is part number 5304475969. The water filter water valve is part number 218658000. Thanks.
Part AP4511366, do you know why this part now has one outlet with bigger thread size than the other? The old part has two of the same size. Now one side is bigger and it was almost impossible to find the right size fitting, i think it was 5/16.

Answer Hello Mike! Unfortunately, we do not have the information available as to why the manufacturer may or may not redesign their parts. If you can supply your appliance model number we will be more than happy to verify if this is the correct part number. Thanks!
My water valve has two outlets. (The two tubes join together.) I don't see two outlets on this valve.

Answer Hello Wiley,
This water valve 5304475969 is a substitution valve provided by the manufacturer to replace the old valve. Which will explain a difference in looks but this is a dual water valve as well. If you provide us with your model number we can verify this is the correct water valve for your unit. Thanks.
