Whirlpool WP206413 Water Inlet Valve (Dual Solenoid) OEM Part

Ordered a replacement valve and installed it. The part from AppliancePartsPro was an exact replacement for the original part. Replaced the hot and cold hoses at the same time to insure no leaks. Cold water settings now work properly again.

Purchased new water level switch, water inlet valve, and inlet hose assembly from your wonderful website! Just had to remove old parts inside washer and install new parts.

I cannot believe this machine still runs. APP has sold me repair parts for this unit now 3 times. First I wanted to replace the old belts. They still worked but was more a preventative thing. Next was a water control valve a few years ago. This time I noticed a leak near the valve again. I decided to buy a new valve and also replace all the rubber hoses that were 35 years old. The repair took about 3 hours. 1.5 to remove the old parts and do a cleaning that was greatly needed. 0.5 hours to find the part numbers and place the order. APP got me my parts with standard shipping in 3 days which was okay as I was going to repair them over the following weekend. Parts came and all went together easily. It took 1 hour to reassemble and check for leaks. All is good and the unit looks new except for not looking modern. I did find that the old valve was fine so I am keeping it as a spare. The valve was expensive but the repair cost was a lot cheaper than calling a repair person and I learned stuff to boot.
