Parts for Whirlpool WRS571CIDB01: 12 - Ice Maker Parts

The Water Inlet Valve is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It regulates the flow of water into the refrigerator’s water dispenser and ice maker. This valve ensures that the correct amount of water is supplied to these components, enabling the production of ice and the dispensing of water on demand.

Over time, the water inlet valve can wear out due to mineral deposits, electrical malfunctions, or general wear and tear. These issues can lead to inadequate water flow, which can affect the performance of both the water dispenser and the ice maker, or cause leaks within the refrigerator.

Symptoms of a bad water inlet valve include:

• Water dispenser not working or having low flow
• Ice maker not producing ice
• Water leaks around the valve area

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

A replacement machine screw with 8-32 threads used to secure panels and components on compatible Whirlpool appliances. Installs quickly to restore proper fit and stop rattling or loose parts. What it does:

• Secures panels, trim, brackets or components that use 8-32 machine-thread fasteners
• Restores proper alignment and prevents vibration-related noise
• Replaces missing, stripped, or damaged screws that allow parts to come loose
• Works where a standard 8-32 machine screw is specified by the manufacturer

• Disconnect power and/or gas before servicing the appliance to reduce shock or injury risk
• Use the proper screwdriver or nut driver for the screw head to avoid stripping
• Thread gently and stop when snug; do not overtighten to prevent stripping or damage
• If threads are damaged, replace with the correct-size screw rather than forcing it
