XPARTCO WD15X24213 Dishwasher Water Valve Replaces WD15X26140
The WD15X24213 is an aftermarket replacement water inlet valve and wiring harness service assembly for GE, Hotpoint, Haier, Monogram, and Café dishwashers. This valve sits at the point where your home's water supply line enters the dishwasher — when a fill portion of the cycle begins, the control board sends power to the valve's solenoid coil, which opens the valve and lets water flow into the tub. When the correct amount has entered, the valve closes again. If the valve fails to open, the tub won't fill and the cycle stalls; if it fails to close fully, water can trickle in continuously even when the dishwasher is off, which is what causes an overfill or a puddle discovered the next morning.
This is supplied as a complete valve-and-harness assembly, so the wiring pigtail is included and does not need to be transferred from the old unit. Typical failure modes include mineral or sediment buildup inside the valve body that prevents it from sealing fully, a solenoid coil that has burned out electrically, and a cracked valve housing from age or a hard freeze. GE's guidance is clear on this part: do not attempt to clean a clogged valve — cleaning it can damage the internal seal and make failure more likely, so a clogged or slow-filling valve should be replaced rather than serviced. It directly replaces WD15X26140, WD15X20119, WD15X21340, WD15X22999, and AP6983521 — WD15X26140 is the current GE OEM number for this valve. This aftermarket assembly is built to OEM-equivalent quality standards.

Cross Reference Information
Part numbers can change over a product's lifecycle as manufacturers update designs or release new appliance models. For your convenience, we've included any known superseded, alternate, or cross-reference part numbers that match this item.
Replaces Part Numbers
This dishwasher water inlet valve directly replaces the following OEM and cross-reference part numbers:
WD15X26140, WD15X24213, WD15X22999, WD15X20119, WD15X21340, 265D2393P002, 265D2393P003, 33199017, C-373/15-b06, PS12743161, AP6983521, AGE24342 PD00061866, PS12743161.
WD15X26140 is the current GE OEM part number for this valve — this XPARTCO listing is a direct aftermarket equivalent under the earlier WD15X24213 designation. If your part number is not listed above, contact our support team before ordering and we will verify compatibility.
Compatibility
This water inlet valve is compatible with select GE, Hotpoint, Haier, Monogram, and Café dishwashers across a broad range of GE-built platforms.
Note — not the same valve as WD15X26078: GE dishwashers use more than one water inlet valve design, and this one is easy to mix up with our other GE valve listing, WD15X26078. This WD15X24213 / WD15X26140 valve family supersedes WD15X22999, WD15X21340, and WD15X20119; WD15X26078 is a separate valve family used on different model platforms. The two are NOT interchangeable — fitting the wrong one can result in a valve that doesn't seat correctly at the water line connection or a harness that won't mate with your control board. Always verify your full model number before ordering. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure which valve fits your dishwasher.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Shut Off Water Supply And Unplug Dishwasher Before Starting Close the water supply valve under the sink and disconnect power at the outlet or circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves. Remove the lower access/toe-kick panel to reach the valve, typically located at the front-bottom of the dishwasher where the water supply line enters. Place a towel or shallow pan underneath to catch residual water. Disconnect the water supply line fitting first, then disconnect the two-wire harness connector from the old valve — the assembly includes the harness, so you are replacing the wiring pigtail along with the valve itself, not reusing the old one. Remove the mounting bracket or screws securing the valve and pull it free. Install the new WD15X24213 in the same orientation, reconnect the harness connector, and reattach the water supply line fitting, tightening it snugly by hand plus a partial turn with pliers — avoid overtightening plastic threaded fittings. Restore the water supply and check for leaks at the connection before restoring power. Run a short cycle and confirm the tub fills at the normal rate with no leaking underneath. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, adjustable wrench or pliers, towel or shallow pan, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My valve seems clogged with sediment. Can I just clean it instead of replacing it?
GE specifically advises against this. Attempting to clean a clogged inlet valve can damage its internal seal, which often makes the valve fail sooner or fail in a worse way — for example, going from "fills slowly" to "won't shut off and overfills." If a valve is clogged or restricted, replacement is the recommended fix rather than cleaning.
I found water in the tub the next morning even though the dishwasher wasn't running. Is that the valve?
Yes, this is one of the classic symptoms of a valve that isn't sealing fully closed. A worn or debris-lodged valve can allow a slow trickle of water into the tub even with no power applied, which shows up as an unexpected puddle hours after the last cycle ended. Before replacing the valve, also check that the float switch and flood switch assembly are seating and moving freely, since a stuck float can sometimes produce a similar overfill symptom.
The dishwasher makes a grinding noise at the start of the cycle. Could that be the valve?
It's possible, but a grinding noise at cycle start is also commonly associated with the drain pump attempting to clear residual water before the fill begins, or with a flood switch assembly that has failed. If you hear grinding specifically, it's worth checking those components as well as the inlet valve — replacing all of them at once isn't necessary if only one has actually failed.
Does this include the wiring harness, or do I need to reuse the one from my old valve?
This is supplied as a complete valve-and-harness service assembly, so the wiring pigtail is included. You will disconnect the two-wire connector from your old valve's harness and connect the new harness in its place — there's no need to cut, splice, or transfer wiring from the original part.
What's the difference between WD15X24213 and WD15X26140?
They are the same valve across production revisions. WD15X24213 was GE's earlier part number, and WD15X26140 is the current GE OEM number that replaced it. This XPARTCO listing is the aftermarket equivalent, built to match the same valve regardless of which of these numbers appears on your dishwasher's parts diagram — along with the earlier WD15X22999, WD15X21340, and WD15X20119.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine GE OEM part, but is manufactured to match the solenoid design, seal, flow-rate, and wiring harness configuration of the original WD15X26140 / WD15X24213 valve used in compatible GE, Hotpoint, Haier, Monogram, and Café dishwashers.
