The Water Inlet Valve is an OEM part for Frigidaire washing machines. This part controls the flow of hot and cold water into the washer's tub, ensuring the correct temperature mix for various wash cycles. By opening and closing at the command of the washer's control system, it plays a pivotal role in the machine's ability to execute programmed wash cycles with precision, affecting everything from the initial fill to the rinse phases. 

Causes for the replacement of the water inlet valve can range from mineral deposits and sediment build-up, which can obstruct the valve's flow, to mechanical wear and electrical failures affecting the valve's operation. 

Symptoms of a malfunctioning Water Inlet Valve include:

  • The washer not filling with water 
  • Water entering the machine slowly 
  • The washer filling with the wrong water temperature

This OEM Frigidaire part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator and some Kenmore models.

Hello Don. If you can stop the water from entering the machine by pressing cancel or unplugging the unit, you will need to look for a bad pressure hose or replace the pressure switch. If the only way to shut off the water is at the shut off for the water hoses, you will need to replace the water valve in the unit.

If the water stops, the unit has an issue where the valve is being sent voltage when it shouldn't be such as a bad pressure switch.

Hello Exocet. It appears from the wiring diagram that this unit has a separate valve for the softener dispense. It is either stopping up or it isn't opening fully. If you have removed the dispense drawer and did not see any obstructions in or around the holes above the softener area, it is probably the water valve at fault. Have a great day!
