For Whirlpool Water Valve (Part Number: OEM18018957)

Gary for Model Number MAH4000AWW

My MAH4000AWW fills fine, a lot of water pressure. Once the timer moves to the first rinse cycle and goes to fill the water trickles in very slowly eventually the tub does not fill within a certain amount of time the safety mechanism kicks in and stops the washer. I have checked and removed both inlet screen (clean). I have done continuity checks on the coils of the inlet valves and they seem to be okay. The Control board show know signs of burnt components. I have kind of narrowed it down to either control board or Inlet valves. Is there a definitive test I do to isolate the problem? or could it be something else? Thanks in advance.

Hello Gary. Based on the information you provided, it sounds like the water valve WP22002795 is bad and will need to be replaced on the unit.

Hello John, The water valve has an internal leak. As long as you have good water pressure and the screens are not stopped up with mineral deposits and/or sedimentation from the water supply, you will need to replace the water inlet valve WP22002795.

Christexan for Model Number mah4000aww

My Neptune washer stops at two points during the fill cycle and then during the rinse cycle. Once the start button is pushed, the washer functions normally. I spoke with a local tech who suggested the problem might be that the washer is filling too slowly and that the washer automatically shuts down. Recently, I noticed that the detergent was not being completely washed into the system indicating that the flow was restricted. Any help would be MUCH appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hello Christexan. Check and make sure the screens in the valve and in the hoses are not clogged. If they are clear, and the water is not filling properly, you will need to replace the water valve WP22002795 on the unit.

Brad for Model Number mah4000aww

My neptune washer won't fill with water. When it comes time to put in water, it squirts for a brief second then stops. I recently put in a new motor and motor control board kit, and it worked perfectly for about a month. So i don't know if I need a new water valve assembly or if the water valve is not getting the signal strong enough to hold the water valve coils in? Do I need a water valve assemnbly or the control board that sends the signal to it?

1 Answer

Brad, It's not likely you need a water valve, at this point. You do want to test the water level/pressure switch 22002994 and control board WP22002989 , and wiring before you go with a fill valve. Good Luck.

Maytag Owner for Model Number MAH4000AWW : Need blue section water intake valves of AP4027591

My Maytag Neptune washer's cold water intake valve where the cold water hose line hooks onto the washer is stripped. It's just cheap plastic and the blue plastic thread has stripped down at the beginning and I cannot get the hose to connect properly without leaking. I don't want to buy the entire Part Number AP4027591. I don't need the white/bone colored back section. I just need that blue section with the hot/cold intake valves that stick out the rear of the washer for the water lines to connect. Can I buy just that water valve line blue section? If so, how much? Thanks.

1 Answer

Hello Maytag owner. They only sell this as an assembly. They do not offer just the water valve. Thanks.
