This water valve kit regulates the flow of hot and cold water into your appliance during fill. Replace a weak, leaking, or stuck valve to restore consistent fills and proper shutoff, resolving common no-fill, slow-fill, or seeping issues.

• Controls incoming water to achieve correct fill levels and temperature mix
• Addresses no fill, slow/partial fill, or water seeping into the tub when off
• Replaces valves that are electrically failed or mechanically clogged/sticking

• Disconnect power and shut off both water supplies before servicing
• Have towels ready; relieve hose pressure and note wire/hose locations (take a photo)
• Transfer any mounting parts from the original valve if required; avoid overtightening plastic fittings
• Restore water slowly, check for leaks, and run a test fill
