Description

This solenoid is the electromechanical actuator that opens and closes a valve or latch to control flow or movement inside compatible appliances. Replacing a worn solenoid restores reliable on/off operation and responsive dispensing or cycling. What it does:

• Converts electrical signals into mechanical motion to open or close a valve or latch
• Controls water or ice fill cycles, dispenser flow, or other timed movements in the appliance
• Commonly linked to symptoms like no water/ice dispensing, intermittent operation, or a clicking/no-response during a cycle
• Works with the appliance control to ensure precise on/off control where used

What's included: One solenoid (single) Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair
• If the solenoid controls water, turn off the water supply and relieve pressure before disconnecting lines
• Handle electrical connectors carefully; avoid pulling on wires—disconnect at the plug
