This OEM Replacement Part is a single water inlet valve designed for use in Whirlpool refrigerators. Its key function is to supply water to the refrigerator's ice maker and water dispenser. When energized, this valve releases water from the supply line into the ice mold. If the water valve develops a crack, it will need replacement. The valve accommodates two different sizes of tubing: the smaller inlet measures 1/4", and the larger inlet measures 5/16".

By maintaining the integrity of this component, users can ensure the proper functioning of the refrigerator's ice maker and water dispenser. Always consult your appliance manual for accurate installation and replacement guidelines. This part is compatible
with select brands including Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Kenmore, and Maytag.
