Matt S for Model Number MFX2571XEM0 Where is the smart valve (part number AP6018224 or W10270395) located on Maytag fridges? Parts diagrams point to the location of the dual inlet valve, which is a different valve located inside the refrigerated compartment near the filter. Is this smart valve in the back where the water hose connects to the lower back of the fridge? I've tested the dual inlet valve, front controls, door sensor, and main control board, and suspect this smart valve is the reason my water dispenser and ice maker stopped working simultaneously.
Answer Matt, Yes this water valve would be located on the back side of the unit in the machine compartment. Check to make sure that the filter is fully inserted with a good filter and it could be that the filter head is faulty. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Wednesday, July 5, 2017
