XPARTCO DC97-15459H Washer Water Valve
The XPARTCO DC97-15459H is an aftermarket replacement water inlet valve assembly for Samsung top-load washers. This valve controls the flow of water into the washer from the household supply line, opening its internal solenoids to admit water as the cycle calls for it and closing once the correct fill level is reached, ensuring each cycle gets accurate, consistent water flow.
Rated AC 110/120V, 60Hz, measuring approximately 8.7"L x 3.4"W x 2.5"H. Common failure causes include mineral or sediment buildup inside the valve body and general electrical wear in the solenoid coils. A failing valve produces a clear set of symptoms: the washer not filling with water, water leaking near the valve connections, or inconsistent water levels during the wash cycle. It directly replaces AP5621731, PS4220862, and EAP4220862.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Shut Off Water Supply And Unplug Washer Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker, and shut off the water supply before beginning. Wear work gloves. Remove the back panel of the washer to access the valve. Photograph the wiring and hose connections before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the old valve by unscrewing it from its mount, then disconnect the electrical connector and water lines. Position the new DC97-15459H valve in place and secure it with screws. Reconnect the water lines and the electrical connector fully. Restore the water supply and power, then test the machine to confirm the washer fills correctly with no leaking at the connections. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, pliers, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My washer isn't filling with water. Is this the right part?
Yes, this is the most direct symptom of a failed water inlet valve. Since this valve is what admits water from your household supply into the washer, a solenoid failure or internal blockage can prevent any water from entering at all, stopping the wash cycle from proceeding.
Is this the same as DC97-15459G?
No, these are two separate Samsung valve part numbers with different cross-reference sets, despite the similar numbering. Always confirm the exact part number from your washer's parts diagram or the sticker on your old valve rather than assuming based on a close number match.
Should I do a visual inspection before replacing the valve?
Yes, it's a good first step. A simple visual inspection can help you determine if the valve is clogged with sediment or physically damaged before you commit to a full replacement, and regular maintenance can help prolong the life of your washer's water system overall.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Samsung OEM part, but is manufactured to match the solenoid design, flow rate, and connection type of the original DC97-15459H valve used in compatible Samsung top-load washers.
