The Inlet Valve is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. This valve is critical for controlling the flow of water into the washing machine, ensuring that the right amount of water is supplied for various washing cycles. It consists of solenoids that open and close to allow hot and cold water to enter the wash tub at the appropriate times, according to the selected wash settings.

Symptoms of a failing Inlet Valve include:

• The washing machine not filling with water at the start of a cycle
• Water entering the machine slowly or intermittently
• The machine overfilling or underfilling
• Unusual noises coming from the valve area during the filling stage
• Leakage around the valve

Causes of a bad inlet valve can include mineral deposits from hard water which can clog or block the valve, wear and tear on the solenoids over time leading to failure to open or close properly, and electrical failures that affect the operation of the solenoids.

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

This L-shaped flowmeter hose is part of the washer's water inlet circuit. It routes water through the flow sensor and maintains a tight, leak-free connection, helping the machine fill accurately and operate as designed.

• Channels incoming water through the flowmeter for correct fill measurement
• Maintains a secure, leak-resistant connection within the fill system
• Typical failure signs: water dripping during fill, visible cracking/hardening, loose fit, or kinks restricting flow
• A damaged or leaking hose can contribute to inaccurate fill sensing or fill-related errors

• Disconnect power and shut off both water supplies before servicing
• Note routing/orientation; transfer existing clamps or install new ones if needed
• Fully seat hose on each fitting and secure clamps without over-tightening
• Restore water and power, then run a fill to check all connections for leaks

This hose clamp secures a rubber or plastic hose to its fitting to maintain a tight, leak-resistant seal. Replace a worn or missing clamp to stop drips and keep appliance water connections secure.

• Fastens a hose to a barb or port to prevent leaks
• Helps keep hoses from slipping off due to vibration or pressure
• Restores proper sealing when a clamp is rusted, bent, or stripped
• Common symptoms: water dripping at a hose joint, loose hose connection, or a clamp that won't tighten

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Place a towel to catch residual water when removing hoses
• Position the clamp just behind the hose barb/bead and secure with the appropriate tool
• Restore water and power, then run a quick check for leaks at the connection

The Water Inlet Flow Meter is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. It is responsible for monitoring and regulating the flow of water entering the washing machine during the fill cycle, ensuring the correct amount of water is added for efficient and effective cleaning.

Causes of a faulty Water Inlet Flow Meter include sediment buildup, physical damage, or electrical issues with the meter's sensors or connections.  

Symptoms of a bad Water Inlet Flow Meter include:

• Incorrect water levels in the wash tub
• Washing machine not filling properly with water
• Error codes related to water inlet flow or water level issues

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

This water distribution lever directs spray to the correct wash zones so your dishwasher cleans dishes evenly. It replaces a worn or broken lever to restore proper water routing and reliable wash performance. What it does

• Routes incoming spray water between spray arms or wash zones for correct coverage
• Can prevent weak or uneven cleaning caused by a broken or stuck lever
• Stops water from being sent to the wrong zone when the lever is damaged
• Works as the mechanical linkage that changes water flow path during cycles

• One water distribution lever

• Turn off power to the appliance before starting any repair
• Shut off the water supply and drain remaining water from the unit if applicable
• Basic mechanical replacement—remove access panels and mounting fasteners; align and secure the new lever

This dispenser switch is the small electrical switch behind the dispenser lever/paddle. When pressed, it signals the control to dispense, helping restore a responsive lever feel and consistent ice or water dispensing.

• Detects lever/paddle movement and closes the circuit to start dispensing
• Helps fix: no ice or water when the lever is pressed
• Helps fix: must press very hard or hold the lever "just right"
• Helps fix: intermittent operation or a stuck-on dispenser due to a failing switch

• Disconnect power before servicing; turn off water supply if working near water lines
• Access the switch behind the dispenser panel/escutcheon; carefully release trim and tabs as designed for your model
• Note wire positions; move connectors to the new switch in the same locations (NO/NC/COM as applicable)
• Before reassembly, verify a positive "click" and confirm the switch changes continuity when actuated

• Works as part of the dishwasher's water distribution/manifold system.

• Disconnect power and water supply before beginning any service.
• Access typically through the lower tub area after removing the lower spray arm and/or access panels.
• Inspect mating surfaces for debris and ensure the nozzle seats fully to prevent leaks.

This replacement seal restores a watertight connection in your washer to help prevent leaks and moisture damage. It replaces a worn, cracked, or flattened original seal so components stay tightly sealed during use.

• Creates a compression barrier between mating parts to contain wash water
• Helps stop drips and seepage during fill, wash, or drain
• Can address water leaks, moisture under the unit, or musty odors from trapped water
• Replaces seals that are brittle, torn, or misshapen

• Disconnect power and turn off water supply before servicing
• Access the seal location per your model's service information and note orientation
• Clean grooves and mating surfaces; seat the new seal evenly (a light film of water or mild soap can aid installation)
• Reassemble and run a short cycle to check for leaks
