Description

This water inlet valve controls water flow into the appliance, restoring water delivery for the dispenser and ice system when the valve is faulty. Replaces a worn or leaking valve to help recover normal water operation. What it does:

• Opens and closes to allow water into the appliance when the dispenser or ice maker calls for water
• Stops water flow when the dispenser/ice maker is idle to prevent leaks
• Commonly linked to no water at the dispenser, no ice production, or intermittent water flow
• May leak or fail electrically if solenoids or seals wear out

What's included:

• One complete water inlet valve assembly

Install notes:

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before starting any repair
• Handle water lines carefully; replace any damaged supply tubing or gaskets to prevent leaks
• Tighten fittings securely and check for leaks after restoring water and power
