Dole May 29, 2012 for Model Number Kitchenaid KBRA22ERSS01 Our Ice Maker stopped making ice, it was not getting water supply. We were told to replace the Dual Water Inlet Valve. We did, however, water dispenser is working fine, but we still are not getting water flow through the tube connecting to the ice maker. I believe it is the ice maker. (?) Never a problem at all with this system until now. HELP (?)
1 Answer Hello Dole. Check the fill tube coming to the icemaker and see if it is frozen. If not, replace the icemaker. If it is frozen, thaw out the fill hose. Read More...

Bobby May 14, 2012 for Model Number Kenmore 106.56536400 refrigerator Someone asked the following question: Water drips and sometimes even trickles at the door's water dispenser and the response was: Check and make sure your not getting air in the lines. If all is good, then your will need to replace the water valve. Hope this helps. How do you check if there is air in the lines?
1 Answer Hello Bobby! You will need to purge the water line, this will remove any air pockets in the water line. To do this you will simply flush the system by dispensing about three glasses of water continously. If this does not fix the issue replace the valve, part number W10408179. Thanks! Read More...

David E. April 20, 2012 for Model Number Kenmore Side by Side - Model 106.59542991 Ice maker dripping water, freezing in bin. Pulled dual valve and checked its operation with water hooked up. No leaks, but one of the solenoids is bad. Water dispenser stopped working a couple of years ago, never fixed. Are solenoids available separately? Also, now assume that the module is bad on the ice maker. Have adjusted screw for water level, but did not help. What is cost of module and how difficult is it to install?
1 Answer Hello David. No, and based on the information you provided, if the solenoid is bad, you will need to replace the valve WP2188542 and see if this corrects the issue. If not, replace the icemaker assembly. Hope this helps. Read More...
Spinman April 09, 2012 for Model Number ap3085178 info an ed25cqxfw Can you please provide some instructions on how to install an AP3085178 into a Whirlpool ED25CQXFW? I've got one on order and would like to be familiar with the installation procedure when the part arrives. Thanks!
1 Answer Hello Spinman, First and foremost, turn of the breaker or unplug the unit. Turn the water supply to the unit off. Unscrew the water supply line from the old water inlet valve. Remove the back cover and the 2 screws holding the valve on the unit. Remove the wires one at a time and install onto the new valve as they are removed. Doing it this way prevents any possibility of crossing the wires. Remove the water lines from the old valve and install them onto the new valve. I normally run the water supply line through the hole in the back cover assembly and connect the water supply to the new valve before attaching the valve to the unit. This is how I insure there is no water leak. Turn the water supply back on and check for leaks with a dry paper towel. If you just feel for a leak and you touch a cold part, it feels like it may be wet. If you use a paper towel, if it's wet, it's wet. No question. At this point, if no leaks are present, mount the valve on the unit and reinstall the panel to the back of the unit. Be sure that you reinstall the panel cover as this is not just for decoration. It's job is to direct air flow across the hot coils and the defrost drain pan for normal operation to take place. Now you should dispense at least a gallon of water to purge the air from the system.

Kirk March 23, 2011 for Model Number AP3085178 My kitchen aid (KSCS25FTMS02) has a dual water inlet valve(Invensys N-86) that might need replacement. When water line is on, water drips out of top of left green solenoid(?). The line and connections are intact but steady water flows out of valve solenoid(?). Best solution is to replace entire inlet valve? Or an easy troubleshoot?
