The Water Inlet Valve is an OEM part for GE washing machines. It controls the flow of water into the washer during the fill cycles. The valve opens and closes to allow the correct amount of water to enter the machine based on the selected wash cycle and settings.
You should replace this water inlet valve if it becomes defective. A bad water inlet valve can cause several issues such as improper water levels, slow filling, or no water entering the washer at all. These problems can be due to sediment build-up, electrical faults, or mechanical wear.
Symptoms of a bad water inlet valve include:
- Washer not filling with water
- Slow filling or low water pressure
- Leaking or dripping water from the valve area
- Incorrect water levels in the drum
This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
