Description

This water inlet valve controls incoming water to the appliance, restoring proper fill for operation and preventing unwanted leaks. It replaces a worn or failing valve to help restore normal water flow and fill performance. What it does:

• Opens and closes to allow water into the appliance during fill cycles.
• Stops water flow when the cycle ends to prevent overfilling.
• Commonly replaces valves that drip, fail to fill, or cause slow/no-fill symptoms.
• Works with the appliance's solenoid and pressure systems to manage fill timing.

What's included:

• One water inlet valve.

Install notes:

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before starting.
• Verify hose and connection fittings are compatible and tighten to prevent leaks.
• Inspect surrounding seals and hoses; replace any damaged parts to ensure a reliable repair.
