Refrigerator Liquid Valve Parts

Electronic water inlet valve that controls the appliance's water flow during fill cycles, restoring proper filling and helping prevent overfills, persistent fill errors, or water leaks when the original valve fails. What it does:

• Opens and closes to route water into the appliance when signaled by the control board.
• Responds to electronic fill commands; a failed valve can cause no-fill, continuous fill, or error-code symptoms.
• Can allow water leaks if seals or valve body fail.
• Works as the unit that meters fill volume for cycles that require water.

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before starting any repair.
• Inspect inlet hoses and seals when installing; replace damaged hoses or gaskets to prevent leaks.
• Test the appliance through a short fill cycle after installation and check for leaks.

This water valve kit controls the flow of water from your home supply to the refrigerator's icemaker and/or dispenser. Replacing a sticking or leaking valve helps restore proper fills and dispensing performance. What it does:

• Opens and closes to supply water during icemaker cycles or when the dispenser is activated
• Can improve slow or intermittent fills
• Addresses leaks originating at the valve body or its connections
• Symptom-based clue: audible buzzing from the valve with little/no water flow

• One water valve kit

• Disconnect power and shut off the household water supply before servicing
• Place a towel to catch residual water and relieve line pressure
• Note wire and tube locations; cut plastic tubing square and fully seat into push-in fittings
• Restore water and power, then check all connections for leaks and run a test fill

The Water Inlet is an OEM component specifically designed for Bosch refrigerators featuring internal water filtration and dispensing systems. It serves as the entry point for unpurified water into the appliance.

The water inlet utilizes precise engineering to thread securely onto liquid supply lines. Its feed line transport capacity is rated to withstand regular high-pressure pulses from large filtered volumes. 

Causes for inlet replacement typically relate to normal wear at the threaded fitting connection over time. Loosening can affect water tightness and risk leak development.

Symptoms of a failing water inlet include:

• Water leakage around the inlet fitting 
• Loose inlet face or threads requiring tightening
• Diminished water flow rates into the refrigerator 

 This OEM Bosch replacement part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau, and some Kenmore refrigerator models utilizing matching water system architectures. Reinstallation restores a tight seal and reliable supply transport functionality.
 

This replacement water inlet valve controls the flow of water to the refrigerator's dispenser and ice maker, restoring reliable water delivery and ice production. Designed to match OEM fit and function. What it does:

• Opens and closes to route water to the dispenser and ice maker when commanded
• Helps stop water flow when the dispenser is inactive to prevent leaks
• Commonly replaces failed valves that cause no water, weak dispensing, or continuous running
• Works as a direct-fit valve for compatible LG refrigerator units

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before starting work
• Handle connectors and tubing carefully; confirm tight, leak-free connections when reassembling
• Inspect and replace damaged inlet tubing or fittings as needed to prevent leaks

This single-solenoid water inlet valve controls the flow of water from your home supply into the refrigerator's water system, typically feeding the ice maker. A failing valve can stop fill, cause slow or inconsistent fills, or allow unwanted seepage.

• Opens and closes when energized to regulate water to the appliance's water circuit
• Common symptoms: no ice production, small or hollow cubes, water seeping into the ice maker, or leaks at the valve
• Electrical failure (open coil) or mineral debris can keep the valve from opening or closing properly
• Restores proper water fill and reliable shutoff when replaced

• Unplug the refrigerator and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Relieve line pressure and place a towel or pan to catch residual water
• Label or photograph tubing and wires for correct reassembly; cut plastic tubing square and fully seat it
• Restore water and power, then check all connections for leaks

Color: White. Size: 2 oz. can. Porcelain touch-up paint.

Color: Universal Silver

Color: Black. Size: 12 oz. Acrylic appliance aerosol can spray paint.

This water inlet valve controls water flow into the appliance, allowing the correct amount of water to enter during fill cycles so the machine can wash properly and drain when commanded. Reliable operation helps prevent no-fill or overfill symptoms. What it does:

• Opens and closes to allow water into the washer during fill cycles.
• Enables correct water level and filling timing when signaled by the control board.
• Commonly replaces failing valves that cause no-fill, slow-fill, continuous filling, or leaking at the valve.
• Works with standard inlet hoses and connector fittings used on compatible washers.

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before servicing.
• Note hose and electrical connector locations before removal to ensure correct reinstallation.
• Tighten water connections securely and check for leaks after restoring water and power.

The Valve is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. As a critical ice maker component, the valve controls the flow of water to fill the mold and release ice cubes. 

Causes of a bad valve can include mineral buildup disrupting water passages over time, worn internal seals, or damage from freezing.

Symptoms of a bad valve are:  

• Irregular or incomplete ice filling in the mold
• Ice cubes sticking or failing to eject properly
• Water leaks inside or outside the ice maker
• Pressure issues preventing the ice maker from operating

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, Jenn-Air, KitchenAid, and some Kenmore models.

Color: Biscuit. Size: 13 oz. can. Enamel spray paint.

This aerosol spray paint restores the graphite finish on appliance surfaces for quick, low-effort cosmetic touch-ups. Use it to cover small chips, scratches and scuffs so the exterior looks uniform again. What it does:

• Matches graphite appliance finishes for spot repairs and touch-ups
• Covers visible chips, scratches and minor surface scuffs
• Restores a uniform appearance on painted metal appliance surfaces
• Helps protect exposed metal from surface corrosion after repair

• Clean and dry the surface; remove grease, dirt and loose paint before spraying
• Shake can well and test spray on a scrap piece or inconspicuous area first
• Apply in light, even coats from a recommended distance; allow coats to dry between passes
• Use in a well-ventilated area, keep away from heat/open flames, and follow all safety and disposal instructions on the can

This inlet valve controls water flow into the appliance, restoring proper fill cycles and stopping leaks when a valve fails. Replace a faulty inlet valve to regain consistent, reliable water delivery. What it does

• Opens and closes to allow water into the appliance during fill cycles.
• Replaces a valve that can cause no water, slow fill, or intermittent filling.
• Stops unwanted water flow or continuous filling when internal seals fail.
• Prevents leaks caused by a cracked or worn valve body or seals.

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before starting any work.
• Relieve residual water pressure and place towels or a pan to catch drips.
• Basic hand tools required; follow OEM instructions.

This inlet valve controls the water flow into the appliance so it fills when needed. Replacing a faulty valve restores normal fill cycles and helps prevent water delivery problems. What it does:

• Opens and closes to allow water into the appliance during fill cycles
• Stops water flow when fill is complete to prevent overfilling
• Common symptom: appliance won't fill or has low/no water flow
• Common symptom: appliance fills continuously or intermittently

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before starting
• Use basic hand tools; avoid overtightening inlet fittings or damage to ports
• Inspect hoses and seals; replace damaged hoses or gaskets as needed
• After installation, restore power/water and run a test cycle to check for leaks and proper operation
