Compatibility This water inlet valve is compatible with select GE washer/dryer combo units, and also fits select Hotpoint and Kenmore combo models built on the GE platform. Note — combo unit valve, not a standalone washer valve: This valve is specifically designed for washer/dryer combo units. GE also sells several similarly-numbered valves for standalone top-load and front-load washers, including WH13X10015, WH13X10030, WH13X10033, and WH13X10037 — these are separate parts for different platforms and are not interchangeable with this combo unit valve. Always verify your full model number before ordering. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure which valve your appliance needs. Key Features Aftermarket replacement water inlet valve for GE washer/dryer combo units Resolves "won't fill properly" and "water continues entering when off" symptoms caused by valve failure Rated 115V Durable metal construction Direct drop-in replacement — matches the original mounting and hose connections Compatible with GE, Hotpoint, and Kenmore washer/dryer combo units Aftermarket replacement built to OEM-equivalent quality standards Product Specifications Part Number WH13X10031 OEM Part Number WH13X10031 Part Type Washer/Dryer Combo Water Inlet Valve Condition Aftermarket Replacement Application Washer/Dryer Combo Units Voltage 115V Material Metal Quantity 1 valve Compatible Brands GE, Hotpoint, Kenmore Installation Notes ⚠️ Shut Off Water Supply And Unplug The Unit Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker, and shut off both hot and cold water supply valves before beginning. Wear work gloves. Access to the valve on combo units typically requires removing a front or rear access panel — check your model's service diagram, since access varies more on combo units than on standalone washers. Photograph the wiring and hose connections before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the water supply lines from the old valve, disconnect the electrical connector, and remove the mounting screws holding it in place, then pull the valve free. Install the new WH13X10031 in the same position, reconnect all hose connections to their original positions, reconnect the electrical connector fully, and secure the mounting screws. Reattach the hot and cold supply lines, tightening securely. Restore the water supply and check every connection for leaks before restoring power. Run a full test cycle to confirm the washer side fills correctly with no leaking. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, pliers, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions Is this the right valve for my standalone washer, or only for a combo unit? This valve is designed specifically for GE washer/dryer combo units, where the washer and dryer are built into a single appliance. If you have a standalone washer, this is not the correct valve — GE uses several other similarly-numbered valves, such as WH13X10015, WH13X10030, WH13X10033, and WH13X10037, for standalone top-load and front-load washers. Confirm your unit type and model number before ordering. Water keeps entering my machine even when it's off. Is this the valve? Yes, this is a documented symptom of a failing water inlet valve. If the internal solenoid is stuck open or has worn out, water can continue to flow into the machine even after it's been turned off, since the valve can no longer fully seal. 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 voltage rating, solenoid design, and connection type of the original WH13X10031 valve used in compatible GE, Hotpoint, and Kenmore washer/dryer combo units.

285805 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Washer Water Inlet Valve The 285805 is a genuine Whirlpool OEM water inlet valve for direct-drive top-load washers and Whirlpool-built washer/dryer laundry centers. This valve sits at the back of the washer where the hot and cold supply hoses connect, and it controls every drop of water entering the tub — energizing to open the hot side, the cold side, or both together when the control calls for a fill, and closing again once the correct level is reached. It's one of the longest-running, most widely used inlet valves on the Whirlpool direct-drive platform, the same platform that our 8318084 lid switch listing also serves. This is a complete kit: it ships with the mounting bracket, screws, and installation instructions, and it accepts a 1/2" ID hose through two 3/4"-11 threaded NHT ports. Depending on production run, the valve body may arrive blue or green — both are correct and function identically. Over years of use, mineral and sediment buildup (especially calcium deposits from hard water) can restrict or block the valve, the internal solenoid coil can burn out electrically, and the rubber seals can simply wear out with age. A blocked or failing valve commonly shows up as slow filling, no fill on one side, continuous filling that won't stop, or leaking after the cycle ends. It directly replaces AP3094541, 21026, 285805VP, 292197, 3349451, 3354565, 3360387, 3360388, 3360389, 3360391, 3360392, 3429537, 358992, 370067, 388328, 3952163, 3952164, 3955673, 8228, 868761, 99989697, AH334646, EA334646, PS334646, and W10110517. Quick Answer The 285805 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Washer Water Inlet Valve fixes direct-drive top-load washers and Whirlpool-built washer/dryer laundry centers that won't fill, fill slowly, won't stop filling, leak after the cycle, or have no hot or no cold water. Complete kit with mounting bracket, screws, and instructions. Dual-port valve for a 1/2" ID hose, two 3/4"-11 NHT threaded connections, approximately 5.7" tall.

Wear work gloves. Pull the washer away from the wall for access, then disconnect the hot and cold water supply hoses from the back of the valve — have a towel ready, since residual water will spill out. Remove the screws securing the rear or top cabinet panel (on some stackable laundry centers, the entire top enclosure lifts off as one piece, which also disconnects the lid switch wiring harness at the rear — note this connector's location before pulling the panel free). Photograph the wiring and hose routing before disconnecting anything. Unplug the wiring harness from the old valve, remove its mounting screws, and pull it free along with its bracket. Some original valves used an integrated bracket, while this replacement kit ships with a separate bracket that has multiple mounting holes to fit different configurations — you may need to test a couple of orientations before the hose connections line up correctly with your existing hoses. Mount the new 285805 to the bracket, secure it in the cabinet in the same general position as the old valve, and reconnect the wiring harness. Reattach the hot and cold supply hoses to the correct ports, tightening securely by hand plus a partial turn with pliers. Reinstall the cabinet panel, reconnecting the lid switch harness if applicable, restore the water supply, and check every connection for leaks before restoring power. Run a short cycle and confirm the tub fills at the normal rate with no leaking. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, pliers, towel, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions My valve is blue but the old one was green (or vice versa). Did I get the wrong part? No — this is normal. The 285805 has shipped with either a blue or a green valve body depending on the production run, and both are the correct, fully functional part. The color has no effect on fit or performance. The new valve's bracket doesn't match my old one. What do I do? This is a known and expected difference. Many original valves used a bracket integrated directly into the valve body, while this replacement kit ships with a separate bracket that has multiple mounting holes to accommodate different washer configurations. It may take a little trial and error to find the orientation that positions the valve correctly for your existing hose connections — this is a bracket design difference, not a sign that the wrong part was sent. Only hot water won't fill, but cold works fine. Is that this valve? Yes, likely — and often it's specifically mineral or calcium buildup rather than outright failure. Hot water tends to accelerate scale buildup inside the valve port compared to cold, so after many years of hard water use, the hot side can become restricted or fully blocked while the cold side continues working normally. Replacing the valve resolves this since the internal ports aren't designed to be cleaned out once heavily scaled. My washer won't stop filling. Is that dangerous, and is it this valve? It can lead to overflow and water damage if left unaddressed, so it's worth shutting off the water supply at the wall if this happens rather than waiting. A valve that won't stop filling usually means a worn internal seal or diaphragm is no longer sealing shut when the solenoid de-energizes, letting water continue flowing. This valve is the correct replacement for that symptom. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It includes the same dual-port solenoid design, thread specifications, and flow-rate calibration as the water inlet valve originally installed in your direct-drive top-load washer or laundry center.

XPARTCO WH23X29553 Washer Water Valve The XPARTCO WH23X29553 is an aftermarket replacement water inlet valve for GE front-load washers, and also fits select Hotpoint, RCA, Haier, Monogram, and Café models. This valve controls the flow of water into the washer from the household supply line — when the control calls for a fill, the valve's solenoid opens to admit water, and closes again once the correct level is reached. Built with an ABS plastic body and stainless steel components for durability against corrosion. Common failure causes include mineral or sediment buildup inside the valve body, a burned-out internal solenoid coil, and general wear over years of use. A failing valve typically shows up as the washer not filling properly, filling too slowly, or leaking water. It directly replaces AP6983554, PS12743643, EAP12743643, 33090202, and 0024000126GA.

Wear work gloves. Access to this valve is typically behind the front control panel on many models. When removing the front control panel, avoid pulling it straight out too far — slotted tabs on the right side of the panel can break if forced. Instead, pull the panel gently forward, then slide it to the right to release it cleanly. With the panel released, locate the valve and disconnect the hot and cold water supply hoses, keeping a towel handy for residual water. Photograph the wiring and hose connections before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the electrical connector and the outlet hoses from the old valve, remove its mounting screws, and pull it free. Install the new WH23X29553 in the same position, reconnect all outlet hoses to their original positions, reconnect the electrical connector, and secure the mounting screws. Reattach the hot and cold supply hoses, tightening securely. Reinstall the control panel and any surrounding trim, restore the water supply, and check every connection for leaks before restoring power. Run a full test cycle across a few different temperature settings to confirm each fill function works correctly. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, pliers, towel, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions How do I remove the front control panel without breaking it? Avoid pulling the panel straight out with heavy force — the slotted tabs on the right side of the panel can snap if you pull too far. Instead, pull the panel gently forward first, then slide it to the right to release it from its mounting. This gentler approach avoids the most common way this panel gets damaged during a valve repair. I've heard this valve sometimes needs replacing again after just a couple of years. Is that normal? Some owners have reported needing to replace this valve again within a relatively short time, even after a successful repair. While most installations hold up well long-term, if you experience a repeat failure, it's worth double-checking your household water pressure and mineral content, since hard water and high pressure can accelerate wear on any water valve regardless of brand. Is this the same as WH23X29538? The numbers look almost identical. No, these are two separate GE 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 match, since ordering the wrong one means it won't fit correctly. 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, flow rate, and connection type of the original WH23X29553 valve used in compatible GE, Hotpoint, RCA, Haier, Monogram, and Café front-load washers.

W11210459 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Washer Water Inlet Valve The W11210459 is a genuine Whirlpool OEM water inlet valve for Whirlpool top-load washers, and also fits select Kenmore, Maytag, Amana, Crosley, Inglis, and Roper models. This valve controls the flow of hot and cold water into the tub during the fill portion of each cycle — an electrical solenoid opens and closes the valve to admit exactly the right amount of water for the selected wash setting. Over time, mineral or sediment buildup inside the valve, or general wear in the solenoid coil, can cause the valve to fail. A failing valve typically shows up as the washer not filling with water, filling very slowly, or water continuing to leak into the tub after the wash has completed. It directly replaces AP6329217, W10701459, W10838319, W11038711, 4591321, PS12349267, W10869799, W11025984, and W11210459VP.

Note — not the same as W11210463: A similarly-numbered valve, W11210463 (also cross-referenced as W11101906), is a separate part with its own cross-reference set (W10701461, W10883458, W10869803, W11038696, AP6329219), used on other Whirlpool washer models. The two are easy to confuse given how close the numbers are — always confirm you have the exact part number before ordering. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure. Key Features Genuine Whirlpool OEM part — factory-specified solenoid design and flow rate Regulates hot and cold water flow into the washer tub Resolves "won't fill," "fills slowly," and "leaks after cycle completes" symptoms caused by valve failure Factory Certified Part built to Whirlpool's engineering specifications Direct drop-in replacement — matches the original mounting and hose connections Replaces AP6329217, W10701459, W10838319, W11038711, 4591321, PS12349267, W10869799, W11025984, and W11210459VP Compatible with Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, Amana, Crosley, Inglis, and Roper top-load washers Genuine OEM replacement — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance Moderate DIY repair Product Specifications Part Number W11210459 Part Type Washer Water Inlet Valve Condition Genuine OEM Brand Whirlpool Application Top-Load Washers Function Controls hot and cold water flow into the tub Repair Difficulty Moderate Quantity 1 valve Compatible Brands Whirlpool, Kenmore, Maytag, Amana, Crosley, Inglis, Roper Installation Notes ⚠️ Unplug Washer And Shut Off Water Supply Before Starting — Use A Putty Knife To Release The Control Panel Disconnect power at the outlet, or shut off the house circuit breaker for the appliance, and shut off both hot and cold water supplies before beginning. Wear work gloves. The top control panel can be removed more easily by sliding a putty knife under the panel on each end to release the retaining clips, rather than removing the back panel first — one customer specifically noted this trick saved considerable time after trying the back-panel approach without success. With the panel released, locate the water inlet valve and photograph the wiring and hose connections before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the electrical connector and the hot/cold water lines from the old valve, remove its mounting screws, and pull it free. Install the new W11210459 in the same position, reconnect the water lines and electrical connector fully, and secure the mounting screws. Reinstall the control panel. Restore the water supply and power, then run a full test cycle across a few temperature settings to confirm correct fill behavior with no leaking. Tools needed: multi-screwdriver, putty knife, 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. What's the easiest way to access the control panel for this repair? Try sliding a putty knife under the panel at each end to release the retaining clips, rather than removing the back panel of the washer first. One customer specifically learned this trick after trying the back-panel approach with no luck, then found the putty knife method worked cleanly after watching an online tutorial. Is this the same as W11210463? No, these are two separate Whirlpool 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. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original solenoid design, flow rate, and connection type of the water inlet valve originally installed in your washer.

Pull the washer away from the wall to access the back panel. The water inlet valve is mounted on the upper rear of the washer. Photograph all wire harness connections and hose routing before disconnecting. Disconnect the two external supply hoses from the valve inlet ports using pliers to loosen any stuck connections. Disconnect the internal outlet hoses by squeezing the retaining clips and pulling free. Disconnect the wiring harness connectors from all solenoid coils and the thermistor. Unscrew the mounting hardware and remove the old valve. Install the new W11165546 valve in the same position, reconnect all internal hoses, wire harnesses, and external supply hoses in the same positions as documented. Restore water supply and power, then run a fill cycle to verify normal filling and check for leaks. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, pliers, channel-lock pliers for stubborn hose connections. Frequently Asked Questions What do error codes F8E1, LF, and LO FL mean on Maytag and Whirlpool washers? F8E1 (also displayed as LF or LO FL on some models) indicates a long fill fault — the washer was unable to fill to the required water level within the expected time. The most common causes are a failed water inlet valve (solenoid coil burned out or valve seat clogged), low household water pressure, or kinked supply hoses. Before replacing the valve, confirm both supply valves are fully open, the supply hoses are not kinked, and household water pressure is adequate. If all supply conditions are good and the error persists, the water inlet valve is the most likely cause. What is the difference between W11165546 and W11096267? These are the same water inlet valve assembly. W11096267 was an earlier version, and W11165546 is the current updated part number. The W10599423 and W10758828 are also cross-references to earlier versions of this same valve. The W11165546VP is the Whirlpool factory-packaged version. All of these are covered by this aftermarket replacement. Why does this valve have 4 solenoids? Modern HE top-load washers like the Maytag Bravos XL and Whirlpool Cabrio use multiple water paths for different wash functions — hot water inlet, cold water inlet, a bleach dispenser port, and a fabric softener/recirculation port. Each path is controlled by its own independent solenoid coil on the same valve assembly. This allows the control board to independently open any combination of ports needed for a given cycle phase. When any single solenoid coil fails, only the function controlled by that coil is affected — which is why the washer might fill normally with cold water but not hot, or fail to activate only one dispenser. Does the valve color (blue vs green) matter? No — the blue and green valve body colors are simply the result of different production runs at the factory. Both colors are the same part number (W11165546) with identical electrical specifications, port configuration, thermistor, and dimensions. Either color will function correctly in your washer. There is no functional difference between the two. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured with 4 solenoid coils and an integrated thermistor to match the electrical specifications and port configuration of the original W11165546 water inlet valve assembly.

242252702 Genuine OEM Frigidaire Refrigerator Water Valve The 242252702 is a genuine Frigidaire OEM triple-solenoid water inlet valve assembly for Frigidaire, Electrolux, Kenmore, Crosley, and White-Westinghouse side-by-side refrigerators. This valve is the central control point where your home's water supply connects to the refrigerator, and it manages water flow to both the ice maker and the door-mounted water dispenser through three separate solenoids housed in one assembly, each opening independently depending on what's being called for. Rated 120V, 50/60Hz per solenoid (20W maroon, 20W yellow, 35W green — each solenoid's wire is color-coded), this valve has 4 outlets total: one 1/4" tube inlet, three 5/16" tube outlets, and one 1/4" tube outlet. It measures approximately 7-1/8"L x 3-3/4"W x 3-1/4"H and ships as a complete assembly with mounting bracket and installation instructions. This valve directly replaces the older 241734302 design and uses updated quick-connect fittings in place of the older screw-on style. A failing valve typically shows up as the ice maker or dispenser not working, slow water flow, or — notably — an overflowing ice maker caused by the valve not shutting off completely if household water pressure is too low. It directly replaces 240321801, 240505101, 240505102, 240508101, 240508102, 240531101, 241734301, 241734302, 7241734301, WV2702, 2692163, AP5671757, EAP7784018, PD00000153, PS7784018, and K-76150. Quick Answer The 242252702 Genuine OEM Frigidaire Refrigerator Water Valve fixes Frigidaire, Electrolux, Kenmore, Crosley, and White-Westinghouse side-by-side refrigerators where the ice maker or water dispenser isn't working, water flow is slow, or the ice maker is overflowing. Triple-solenoid, 4-outlet valve assembly with bracket. Replaces 240321801, 240505101, 240505102, 240508101, 240508102, 240531101, 241734301, 241734302, 7241734301, WV2702, 2692163, AP5671757, EAP7784018, PD00000153, PS7784018, K-76150. This valve needs at least 20 psi of household water pressure to shut off completely — if pressure is too low, the valve can leak and cause the ice maker to overflow even when the valve itself is functioning correctly. Common Problems This Part Fixes Ice maker has stopped making ice, or is producing less ice than usual Water dispenser on the refrigerator door isn't working or has slowed down Ice maker overflowing or leaking Slow water flow at the dispenser Water leaking near the valve at the back of the refrigerator Error code related to the water system displayed on some models Cracked or physically damaged valve housing Cross Reference Information Part numbers can change over a product's lifecycle as manufacturers update designs or release new appliance models.

Wear work gloves. Pull the refrigerator away from the wall for access, then locate the valve at the rear of the cabinet. Remove the two hex screws securing the old valve. Before disconnecting anything, note or photograph which plastic tube connects to which port on the multi-port valve assembly — with three solenoids and multiple outlets, getting a hose on the wrong port will send water to the wrong place. Disconnect the water supply hose, the electrical connectors (which are color-coded to their matching solenoids on the new valve), and the outlet hoses, then remove the old valve. Install the new 242252702 in the same position with its included mounting bracket, secure it with the hex screws, and reconnect each outlet hose to its correct port exactly as noted. Reconnect the color-coded electrical connectors to their matching solenoid wires. Reattach the water supply hose, tightening securely. While the back of the refrigerator is accessible, it's also a good opportunity to clean the condenser coils and surrounding area. Restore the water supply and check every connection for leaks before restoring power. Push the refrigerator back into place, then test both the ice maker and water dispenser over the following day. Tools needed: hex screwdriver or nut driver, pliers, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions My ice maker is overflowing. Is this the valve? Possibly, but check your household water pressure first. This valve requires a minimum of 20 psi to shut off fully — if your home's water pressure is below that, the valve may not close completely even though it's functioning correctly, letting water leak through and overflow the ice maker. If your water pressure tests below 20 psi, that's the underlying cause rather than a defective valve, and addressing the pressure issue (or installing a pressure-boosting solution) is the correct fix. The new valve looks different from my old one. Is that normal? Yes. This valve has been updated to use quick-connect fittings in place of the older screw-on style used on earlier units, so the connection points may look different from what you're used to. It's still a correct, direct functional replacement — the new fittings just make installation somewhat easier. How do I know which hose goes where? This valve has multiple outlets. Note or photograph the hose routing on your old valve before disconnecting anything — with three solenoids and four total outlets, it's easy to reverse a connection if you're not careful. The electrical connectors are color-coded (maroon, yellow, green) to help you match them to the correct solenoid on the new valve, which makes the wiring side more foolproof than the hose routing. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Frigidaire to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original triple-solenoid design, wattage per solenoid, and outlet configuration of the water valve originally installed in your refrigerator.

XPARTCO W11688995 Washer Water Inlet Valve (Cold) The XPARTCO W11688995 is an aftermarket replacement cold water inlet valve designed as a direct fit for select Whirlpool, Maytag, Amana, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, Inglis, and Kenmore front-load washers. The cold water inlet valve is mounted at the back of the washer where the cold water supply hose connects. When the washer's control board calls for cold water during a wash cycle, the valve's internal solenoid opens, letting water flow into the tub or detergent dispenser. The valve closes the instant the control board cuts power, stopping flow precisely as the correct fill level is reached. When this valve fails, the washer may not fill with cold water at all, fill very slowly, fail to dispense fabric softener, continuously drip water into the tub even when off, or display F8E1 or LO FL error codes. Construction is blue and white plastic with metal solenoid coil, ~3"H x 4"W x 3"L, with 1/2" NPT threaded inlet for standard washer supply hose.

The matching hot water inlet valve is part number W11688994 (typically red). When you replace one valve, it's a good practice to replace the other at the same time since they're the same age, both are accessible during the same repair, and the second valve will likely fail in the near term. Always verify your model number before ordering.

Wear work gloves to protect your hands. Have towels ready — residual water remains in the supply hoses and will spill when disconnected. Pull the washer out from the wall to access the back. Remove the three 1/4" screws securing the rear edge of the top cover, push the top cover slightly back, and lift it off. Locate the inlet valves at the back of the washer — the cold valve is typically blue. Disconnect the cold water supply hose from the valve (water will drip — towels). Photograph the wire connections before disconnecting. Unplug the small electrical connector from the valve solenoid. Remove the single 3/16" mounting screw (or similar hardware, model-dependent) holding the valve in place, and disconnect any internal water hoses from the valve outlet (channel-lock pliers may help with hose clamps). Install the new W11688995 valve in the same position with the same orientation, reconnect the internal water hoses and electrical connector, and secure the mounting screw. Reconnect the cold supply hose at the wall, restore water and power, and run a test cycle to confirm normal cold water fill with no leaks. Tip: while the top cover is off, this is the ideal time to also replace the hot water valve (W11688994) — they share the same access and lifespan. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver, 3/16" nut driver, adjustable wrench or pliers, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions What do error codes F8E1 and LO FL mean on Whirlpool washers? Both codes indicate a water fill problem. F8E1 appears when the control board doesn't detect normal water flow during a fill cycle — typically caused by a failed inlet valve, a clogged inlet screen, kinked supply hose, or restricted water supply. LO FL (low flow) appears when the washer detects that water is flowing in, but at a rate too low to complete the fill within the expected time window. When the cold water inlet valve has failed or is partially clogged, both codes can appear together. Before replacing the valve, check that the household cold water supply is on and the supply hose isn't kinked, and inspect the inlet screen on the valve for sediment buildup. If those check out, replacing the W11688995 typically resolves the codes. My washer isn't dispensing fabric softener — could this be the cold valve? Yes — this is actually a common symptom that's often misdiagnosed. The cold water inlet valve also feeds the detergent dispenser tray on most Whirlpool front-load washers, including the fabric softener compartment. If the cold valve is clogged or failing to fully open at the right moment in the cycle, water doesn't flow through the fabric softener compartment to flush it into the tub, leaving softener pooled in the tray at the end of the cycle. If you've already cleaned the dispenser tray and water lines and the problem persists, replacing the cold inlet valve (W11688995) often resolves the issue. Should I replace the hot water valve at the same time? Yes, it's strongly recommended. The cold and hot inlet valves are essentially identical components installed side by side at the back of the washer — they're the same age, are exposed to the same wash cycle stress, and have the same expected service life. When one fails, the other is typically not far behind. Since the top cover is already off and both valves are accessible during the same repair, replacing both saves you a second teardown later. The matching hot water valve is part number W11688994 (red, sold separately) and is also available as a paired kit. My washer is dripping water into the tub even when it's off — is this the valve? Yes, that's a classic sign of a failed inlet valve. When the solenoid wears out or debris keeps the valve from sealing fully closed, water leaks past it at low rates and drips into the tub even with the washer powered off — especially noticeable as a slow puddle forming over a day or two. Since both the hot and cold valves feed into the tub, you'll want to identify which one is leaking: shut off the hot water supply at the wall and check if dripping continues. If it stops, the hot valve is at fault; if it continues, this cold valve is the cause. Replacing the W11688995 will resolve a leaking cold valve. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured to match the dimensions, electrical specifications, 1/2" NPT thread, and solenoid function of the original W11688995 cold water inlet valve used in compatible Whirlpool, Maytag, Amana, KitchenAid, and Kenmore front-load washers.
