Description

This 3-way water inlet valve routes water to the dispenser and ice maker, restoring controlled water flow for cold-water dispensing and ice production. It replaces a worn or leaking valve to help stop unwanted leaks and restore normal water delivery. What it does:

• Directs incoming water to the ice maker and the dispenser as needed
• Opens and closes water flow in response to the fridge's control signals
• Helps stop leaks or continuous water flow when the valve fails
• Commonly replaced when the dispenser or ice maker doesn't get water or when the valve leaks

What's included: One 3-way water inlet valve with mounting bracket. Install notes:

• Turn off water supply and unplug the appliance before starting work
• Use basic hand tools; keep a towel to catch residual water when disconnecting lines
• Inspect and tighten fittings; replace damaged water lines or seals if present
• After installation, restore power/water and check all connections for leaks while cycling dispenser/ice maker
