W11688995 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Washer Water Inlet Valve (Cold) The W11688995 is a genuine Whirlpool OEM cold water inlet valve for Whirlpool-built front-load washers. Whirlpool's newer front-load platforms use two separate single-function valves instead of one combined hot/cold valve body — this cold-side valve handles only the cold water supply, while a matching hot-side valve (sold separately as W11688994) handles the hot side. When the control calls for a cold fill, it energizes this valve's solenoid coils to open the water path; when the correct level is reached, the valve closes again. If this valve fails to open, the washer won't take on cold water; if it fails to seal fully closed, water can trickle into the drum even when the washer isn't running. Because this is a dedicated single-function valve, a failure here shows up in a very specific way: cold-only fills stop working or slow down dramatically, while hot-only fills (governed by the separate W11688994 valve) continue working normally. Whirlpool's own service guidance links this valve to F8 E1 and LO FL fill-related error codes. Common failure modes include mineral or sediment buildup that prevents the valve from sealing, a burned-out solenoid coil, or a worn internal diaphragm. It directly replaces W11036930, W11316256, W11486361, AP7218603, PS17216730, and EAP17216730. As a genuine OEM part, the W11688995 is manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.

Note — cold side only: This is the cold water valve. The matching hot water valve for these same washers is sold separately under part number W11688994. The two are not interchangeable — each is a dedicated single-function valve, and installing this cold valve in place of the hot valve (or vice versa) will not correctly control water temperature. If both valves need replacement, order both part numbers. Always verify your full model number before ordering. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure.

Wear work gloves. Disconnect the cold water supply line from the back of the valve first — have a towel or shallow pan ready, since residual water will spill out. Remove the rear screws securing the top panel, then slide the panel back and lift it off to access the valve assembly from inside the cabinet. Photograph the wiring connections before disconnecting anything, since the hot and cold valves sit side by side and it's easy to cross a wire. Disconnect the electrical connector from the old cold valve, remove its mounting screw or bracket, and pull the valve free — leave the hot valve (W11688994) undisturbed if it isn't also being replaced. Install the new W11688995 in the same position, secure the mounting screw, and reconnect the electrical connector fully. Reattach the cold water supply line, tightening securely by hand plus a partial turn with pliers — avoid overtightening plastic threaded fittings. Reinstall the top panel, restore the water supply, and check the connection for leaks before restoring power. Run a short cycle set to a cold wash and confirm the tub fills at the normal rate with no leaking underneath or behind the washer. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver or socket, T-20 Torx bit, pliers, towel or shallow pan, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions Cold water won't fill but hot water works fine. Is this the right part? Yes — that's exactly the symptom pattern this valve addresses. Because your washer uses two separate single-function valves rather than one combined valve, a fault on the cold side only affects cold fills while the hot valve (W11688994) keeps working independently. If cold-specific cycles are the ones failing, this cold valve is the correct part to replace. Do I need to replace both the hot and cold valves at the same time? Not necessarily. Since these are independent single-function valves, you only need to replace the one that has actually failed. If only cold fills are affected, replacing this W11688995 valve alone is sufficient. If both hot and cold fills are having problems, or if the valves are original and quite old, some people choose to replace both at once since they're already accessing the same area — but it's not required. My washer shows an F8 E1 or LO FL error. Does that mean this valve is bad? It's a strong indicator, but check the basics first. These codes generally mean the control didn't see water reach the expected level within its allotted fill time. Before replacing the valve, confirm the cold supply valve at the wall is fully open, check the inlet screen inside the valve port for sediment or debris, and make sure the cold fill hose isn't kinked. If those check out and cold water still won't fill properly, this valve is the likely cause. Can I use this valve on the hot water side instead? No. This is a dedicated cold-water valve, and the hot-water side uses a separate part number, W11688994. The two are built and calibrated for their specific supply line and are not interchangeable — installing the cold valve on the hot side (or vice versa) will not properly control water temperature during the cycle. 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 two-coil solenoid design, seal, and flow-rate calibration as the cold water inlet valve originally installed in your front-load washer.

Genuine OEM WH23X35712 Washer Water Valve The Genuine OEM GE WH23X35712 is an electromagnetic (solenoid) water valve for GE, Hotpoint, and Kenmore washers. The valve connects your home's water supply to the washer. It opens when the control energizes it to let water into the washer and shuts off to prevent overfilling. When it fails, the washer may not fill, may fill intermittently, or may fill slowly or weakly. This is the original GE part. GE washers use several different water valves that look alike, so confirm the part number against your model before ordering. Quick Answer The Genuine OEM WH23X35712 Water Valve fixes a GE, Hotpoint, or Kenmore washer that won't fill, fills intermittently, or fills slowly. It is a sealed on/off solenoid valve. Classic symptom: the cycle starts but little or no water comes in, and the supply taps and hoses are clear. Common Problems This Part Fixes Washer won't fill with water Intermittent filling during the cycle Slow or weak fill Valve that leaks or doesn't shut off properly 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 water valve directly replaces the following part number: WH23X35712, 4984177, AGE26168, AP7211666, EAP17139268, PD00089992, PS17139268 No other GE part numbers were confirmed for this valve. Other GE washer valves with similar numbers, such as WH23X29553, are different parts. Confirm against your washer's parts diagram, or contact our support team, if your model calls out a different number. Compatibility This valve is listed for GE, Hotpoint, and Kenmore washers. GE-family washers sold as General Electric, Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore Note: We could not confirm a model list for this valve, so compatibility is stated by brand only. GE makes several look-alike washer valves that differ in coil count and connections. Enter your model number at checkout or contact our support team to verify fit before ordering. Key Features Genuine OEM GE electromagnetic (solenoid) water valve Sealed on/off valve that controls water flow into the washer Resolves no-fill, intermittent-fill, and slow-fill problems Listed for GE, Hotpoint, and Kenmore washers Product Specifications Part Number WH23X35712 OEM Part Number WH23X35712 Part Type Washer Electromagnetic (Solenoid) Water Valve Condition Genuine OEM Application GE, Hotpoint & Kenmore Washers Installation Notes ⚠️ Unplug Power and Shut Off the Water Unplug the washer and turn off the water supply before beginning. Wear work gloves, and have a towel and shallow pan ready for water left in the hoses. Follow your model's service guide to reach the valve, note the position of each wire connector and hose, and disconnect them. Handle the new valve by its body and avoid stressing the electrical connectors or the inlet and outlet fittings. Inspect the hoses and fittings, replace any worn seals, then reconnect everything and check for leaks with the water on. Frequently Asked Questions My washer won't fill. Is this the part I need? A failed water valve is a common cause. First check that the water supply taps are fully open and that the inlet screens at the hose connections aren't clogged. If both are fine and the washer still fills slowly or not at all, the valve is a likely cause. What does this valve do? It is an on/off solenoid valve. It opens when energized to let water in and closes to stop the flow and prevent overfilling. Can I use a different GE washer valve? Not unless your model's parts diagram calls it out. GE makes several valves that look alike but differ in coil count and connections. Use the number your model calls out, or contact our support team to confirm. Will this fit my washer? It is listed for GE, Hotpoint, and Kenmore washers, but we could not confirm a model list.

Wear work gloves. Locate the top cover of your washer — depending on your model, it may be located along the side or in the back — and use a flat-blade screwdriver to gently pry it off. Locate the hot water valve and disconnect the water supply hose from it, using locking pliers to loosen the hose clamp before carefully pulling the hose away. Unscrew the screws holding the valve in place and gently remove it from the washer. Mount the new 5220FR2006H valve in place and replace the screws. Reconnect the water supply hose to the valve and tighten the hose clamp using locking pliers. Turn the water supply back on and plug the washer back in. Test the new valve by running a load of laundry and checking for any leaks. Tools needed: flat-blade screwdriver, locking pliers, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions My washer isn't getting hot water. Is this the part I need? Yes, this is the most direct symptom of a failed hot water inlet valve. Since this valve is what admits hot water from your household supply into the washer, a solenoid failure or internal blockage can prevent hot water from entering properly, even if cold water fill still works normally. My washer shows an IE error code. Could this valve be the cause? Yes, an IE error code on LG washers is commonly tied to a fill issue, and a failed inlet valve — hot or cold — is one of the most frequent causes. Confirm which side (hot or cold) is actually affected before ordering, since these are separate parts. Should I replace the cold water valve at the same time? It's worth considering, especially if both valves are the same age. One customer specifically purchased both the hot and cold water inlet valves together during a single repair, along with a new drain pump motor, rather than tackling each part separately over multiple repairs. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by LG to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original solenoid design, flow rate, and connection type of the hot water inlet valve originally installed in your washer.

Wear work gloves. Access is at the rear of the washer, where both the cold and hot water inlet valves are typically mounted together, each secured with just a few screws. Photograph the wiring and hose connections before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the electrical clamps and the water hose from the old cold water valve, remove the mounting screws, and pull it free. Install the new W11168740 in the same position, reconnect the water hose and electrical clamps fully, and secure the mounting screws. While you're in this area, consider replacing the fill hose at the same time if it shows signs of wear, since it's easy to access during this same repair. Restore the water supply and power, then run a full test cycle to confirm correct fill behavior with no leaking. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, pliers, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions Water keeps running even after I unplug my washer. Is this the valve I need? Yes, this is a documented symptom of a cold water inlet valve that's no longer closing properly. One customer had exactly this experience — after unplugging the washer, water continued to run, and shutting off the cold water supply valve at the wall stopped it. That confirmed the cold water inlet valve itself wasn't sealing shut, even with no power to the washer, and replacing it resolved the issue. Should I replace the hot water valve at the same time? It's worth considering, especially if both valves are the same age. Several customers have replaced both the hot and cold valves together in a single repair, since they're mounted in the same area and access is already open — one customer described it as "very quick & easy" to do both at once. Is this a difficult repair? No, this is a straightforward repair. Multiple customers describe it as easy, typically secured with just a few screws and simple electrical clamp connections — one review specifically noted the whole job took about 20 minutes. 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 cold water inlet valve originally installed in your washer.

AJU75152606 Genuine OEM LG Washer Water Inlet Valve Assembly The AJU75152606 is a genuine LG OEM water inlet valve assembly for LG top-load agitator washing machines. This assembly connects to the washer's hot and cold water supply and controls the flow of water into the tub during the fill portion of the wash and rinse cycles — electrical signals from the control system open and close the appropriate water passage, filling the tub to the correct level and shutting off once it's reached. This electric-powered valve assembly is finished in gray, designed for freestanding installation, and rated for an 8 lb capacity washer. Common causes of failure include mineral buildup or debris restricting flow through the valve, or general electrical wear in the solenoid coils. Symptoms of a failing valve include the washer not filling with water, hose leaks at the connections, the valve not opening fully, or reduced flow rate from internal buildup. Replacing this assembly requires removing the control panel and main top of the washer — a moderate difficulty repair. It directly replaces AP7005965. Quick Answer The AJU75152606 Genuine OEM LG Washer Water Inlet Valve Assembly fixes LG top-load agitator washers that won't fill with water, are leaking at the hose connections, or have reduced flow from internal buildup. Gray, electric-powered, 8 lb capacity rating. Replaces AP7005965. Not the same as the similarly-numbered AJU75152602 valve, which is used on different LG WT7000-series models — confirm your exact part number before ordering. Common Problems This Part Fixes Washer not filling with water Hose leaks at the valve connections Valve not opening fully, restricting water flow Reduced flow rate from mineral buildup or debris Overflow or filling problems from inconsistent water pressure 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 AJU75152606, ALG53799, AP7005965, EAP16547657, PD00074631, PS16547657 If your part number is not listed above, contact our support team before ordering and we will verify compatibility.

Wear work gloves. Remove the washer's control panel and main top to access the inlet valve — this is a moderate difficulty repair due to the disassembly involved. Photograph the wiring and hose connections before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the water hoses and wiring connectors from the old valve. Unscrew and remove the old inlet valve assembly. Position the new AJU75152606 in the same location and secure it with screws. Reconnect the water hoses and wiring connectors fully. Reassemble the main top and control panel. Restore the water supply and power, then run a test cycle to confirm the washer fills correctly with no leaking at the hose 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, mineral buildup, or debris can prevent water from entering properly, stopping the wash cycle from proceeding. Is this the same as AJU75152602? No, these are two separate LG valve part numbers used on different washer model series, 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 a difficult repair? It's a moderate difficulty repair, since it requires removing the washer's control panel and main top to access the valve. Basic hand tools are sufficient, but budget more time than you would for a simpler part swap. Is this an OEM or aftermarket part? This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by LG 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.

XPARTCO W11168740 Washer Water Valve (Cold Side) The XPARTCO W11168740 is an aftermarket replacement cold water inlet valve for Whirlpool-built top-load washers, located on the top back of the cabinet where the hot and cold supply hoses connect. Unlike its companion hot-side valve (sold separately as W11168743, a single-solenoid design), this cold valve uses two internal solenoid coils in one blue-bodied housing. When the control calls for a cold fill, it energizes the appropriate solenoid to open the water path; once the correct level is reached, it closes again. Because it's a dedicated cold-only valve, a failure here produces a distinctive symptom: cold-only fills stop working, slow down dramatically, or don't stop when they should, while hot fills (governed by the separate hot valve) continue working independently. Rated 120V, 60Hz, with push-on outlet connections sealed by rubber grommets. Common failure causes include mineral or sediment buildup that prevents the valve from sealing, a burned-out solenoid coil, or a worn seal at the outlet connection. It directly replaces WPW10240949, W10240949, W10921514, 33390069, 4546379, AP6285450, PD00038781, and PS12348073. Quick Answer The XPARTCO W11168740 Washer Water Valve (Cold Side) fixes Whirlpool-built top-load washers where cold water won't fill, fills slowly, keeps filling and won't stop, leaks, or throws a fill-related error code — while hot water fills normally. Blue-bodied, 2-solenoid cold-only valve, 120V, 60Hz, push-on outlet with rubber grommets. Replaces WPW10240949, W10240949, W10921514, 33390069, 4546379, AP6285450, PD00038781, PS12348073.

Wear work gloves. Disconnect the cold water supply hose from the back of the valve first — have a towel or shallow pan ready, since residual water will spill out. Remove the screws securing the top panel (a 1/4" nut driver or socket handles most models), then slide the panel back and lift it off to access the valve assembly from inside the cabinet. Photograph the wiring connections before disconnecting anything, since the hot and cold valves sit next to each other and it's easy to cross a wire. Disconnect the electrical connector(s) from the old cold valve, disconnect the push-on outlet hose (check the rubber grommet for wear and replace it if it looks flattened or cracked), remove the two mounting screws holding the valve, and pull it free — leave the hot valve (W11168743) undisturbed if it isn't also being replaced. Install the new W11168740 in the same position, secure the mounting screws, reconnect the electrical connector(s), and press the outlet hose back onto its fitting with the grommet properly seated. Reattach the cold water supply hose, tightening securely by hand plus a partial turn with pliers. Reinstall the top panel, restore the water supply, and check every connection you touched for leaks before restoring power. Run a short cycle and confirm cold water fills at the normal rate, and stops when it should, with no leaking underneath or behind the washer. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver or socket, Phillips screwdriver, pliers, towel or shallow pan, work gloves. Frequently Asked Questions Cold water won't fill but hot water works fine. Is this the right part? Yes — that's exactly the symptom pattern this valve addresses. Since your washer uses separate hot and cold valves rather than one combined valve, a fault on the cold side only affects cold fills while the hot valve keeps working independently. If cold-specific cycles are the ones failing while hot cycles are unaffected, this cold-side valve is the correct part to replace. How can I tell this valve apart from the hot-side valve just by looking at it? This cold valve has a blue body and two internal solenoid coils, while the companion hot-side valve (W11168743) is a single-solenoid design. If you're staring at the old valve trying to confirm which one you're removing, the color and solenoid count are a quick visual check. Do I need to replace both the hot and cold valves at the same time? Not necessarily. Since these are independent single-function valves, you only need to replace the one that has actually failed. If only cold fills are affected, replacing this W11168740 valve alone is sufficient. Some people choose to replace both while the top panel is already off, especially on an older washer, but it isn't required. My washer keeps filling with cold water and won't stop. Is that dangerous? 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 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 an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured to match the dual-solenoid design, connection type, and dimensions of the original W11168740 cold water valve used in compatible Whirlpool, Maytag, and Kenmore top-load washers.

XPARTCO W11688995 (OE) Washer Water Inlet Valve (Cold) The XPARTCO W11688995 (OE — Original Equipment specification) is an aftermarket replacement cold water inlet valve built to OEM specifications, 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. It directly replaces W11688995, W11036930, W11316256, W11486361, AP7218603, EAP12711564, PD00086086, PS12711564, 4929298, and AP6835737. Often replaced as a pair with the hot water inlet valve (W11688994, sold separately). Installs in 10–15 minutes with basic hand tools. Quick Answer The XPARTCO W11688995 (OE) Washer Water Inlet Valve (Cold) fixes Whirlpool, Maytag, Amana, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, and Kenmore front-load washers displaying F8E1 or LO FL error codes, not filling with cold water, filling slowly, failing to dispense fabric softener, or continuously dripping into the tub.

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. What does "OE" mean and how is this different from an OEM Whirlpool part? "OE" stands for Original Equipment — meaning this is an aftermarket replacement part manufactured to original equipment specifications. It is engineered as a direct-fit substitute matching the dimensions, electrical specifications, and function of the original Whirlpool W11688995. It is not a genuine Whirlpool-branded OEM part, but is built to the same quality standards and performs identically when installed in compatible washers.
