Description
The Water Inlet Valve is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. This valve controls the flow of water into the washer, allowing it to fill with the correct amount of water during the wash and rinse cycles.
Over time, the water inlet valve can become clogged with debris, develop electrical issues, or wear out, leading to problems with the water flow. Causes of a bad water inlet valve include mineral buildup from hard water, internal component failure, or damage to the valve body.
Symptoms of a bad water inlet valve include:
- The washing machine not filling with water
- Slow or insufficient water flow into the washer
- The washer filling with water when it should not
- Unusual noises during the filling process
- Leaks around the valve area
This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
