Customer Questions and Answers for Refrigerator Water Inlet Valve Kit by Whirlpool

Patrick, OK, You swapped the wires at the fill valve, when you pressed the water dispenser paddle, the water enterred the ice maker, correct ? Now what you need to do is get a 3 or 4 inch length of 14 guage wire, remove 1/2 in of insulation from both ends of the wire. Remove the white plastic cover on the front of the icemaker. You'll find labelled openings on the body of the mechanism(L,N,V,T,H, etc) Insert one end of the wire into the T opening and the other end into the H opening, hold the wire by the insulation until the main gear starts to rotate/move, then remove the wire. When the rake arm reaches the 1 or 2 o'clock position, the water dispenser should dispense water for a few seconds(7 to 10 seconds or 4 to 4.5 oz. of water. If it does, you have a faulty primary fill valve. If it doesn't you have a faulty fill contact in the control module of the icemaker or a broken wire between the icemaker and fill valve(not repairable). Good Luck and Thanks
