XPARTCO W11688994 Washer Water Inlet Valve (Hot)
The XPARTCO W11688994 is an aftermarket replacement hot water inlet valve compatible with select Whirlpool, Maytag, Amana, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, Inglis, and Kenmore front-load washers. The hot water inlet valve is mounted at the back of the washer where the hot water supply hose connects. When the washer's control board calls for hot water during a wash cycle, the valve's internal solenoid opens, letting hot 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 hot water at all, fill very slowly with hot water, fail to deliver hot or warm wash temperatures (even when selected), continuously drip water into the tub even when off, or display fill-related error codes. Construction is red and white plastic with a 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 W11688994, W11036928, W11316255, W11486360, and AP7218602. Often replaced as a pair with the cold water inlet valve (W11688995, sold separately). Installs in 10–15 minutes with basic hand tools.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer and Shut Off Water Supply Before Starting — Wear Work Gloves Disconnect power and shut off both the hot and cold water supplies at the wall before beginning. Wear work gloves to protect your hands. Have towels ready — residual water remains in the supply hoses and will spill when disconnected. Important: if the washer has just been running a hot cycle, allow the hot supply hose and valve to cool before handling — hot water can scald. 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 hot valve is typically red. Disconnect the hot 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 W11688994 valve in the same position with the same orientation, reconnect the internal water hoses and electrical connector, and secure the mounting screw. Reconnect the hot supply hose at the wall, restore water and power, and run a test cycle on a hot or warm setting to confirm normal hot water fill with no leaks. Tip: while the top cover is off, this is the ideal time to also replace the cold water valve (W11688995) — 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
My washer isn't filling with hot water — is the hot valve the problem?
Likely, yes — that's the most common symptom of a failed hot water inlet valve. Before replacing, do a few quick checks: 1) confirm the hot water supply at the wall is turned on and your home actually has hot water at that connection (test the faucet nearby); 2) check the supply hose for kinks or pinches; 3) inspect the inlet screen on the back of the valve for sediment buildup — a clogged screen can mimic a failed valve. If the supply is good and the screen is clean, but the washer still won't get hot water, the W11688994 valve solenoid has likely failed and replacing it will resolve the issue.
My washer fills but my hot wash isn't actually hot — could it still be this valve?
Yes — when the hot inlet valve is partially failed (opening but not fully, or opening only briefly), the washer may complete its fill cycle by drawing extra cold water to compensate, but the resulting mix is much cooler than the selected wash temperature should be. If you've confirmed your home's hot water is hot, the supply hose is good, and you're still ending up with lukewarm "hot" washes, the hot valve is a likely cause. Replacing it restores proper hot water delivery and accurate wash temperatures.
Should I replace the cold water valve at the same time?
Yes, it's strongly recommended. The hot and cold 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 cold water valve is part number W11688995 (blue, sold separately) and is also available as a paired kit.
My washer is dripping water into the tub even when it's off — could the hot valve be the cause?
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 cold water supply at the wall and check if dripping continues. If it stops, the cold valve is at fault; if it continues, this hot valve is the cause. Replacing the W11688994 will resolve a leaking hot 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 W11688994 hot water inlet valve used in compatible Whirlpool, Maytag, Amana, KitchenAid, and Kenmore front-load washers.

XPARTCO WR51X10055 Refrigerator Defrost Heater Assembly
The XPARTCO WR51X10055 is an aftermarket replacement refrigerator defrost heater and bracket assembly compatible with a wide range of GE, Hotpoint, Kenmore, Haier, Americana, Monogram, and Café refrigerators. The defrost heater is a glass quartz tube heater mounted on a bracket below the evaporator coils in the freezer compartment. During each automatic defrost cycle, the heater energizes and melts any frost that has accumulated on the evaporator coils — maintaining unobstructed airflow through the coils so the refrigerator can cool efficiently. When the heater fails, frost accumulates on the coils unchecked, blocking airflow and causing both the freezer and fresh food sections to gradually warm up.
Rated at 120V, 725W, this single quartz tube heater assembly measures 12-1/8" L x 3-3/8" W x 2-1/8" H and includes the heater element and mounting bracket. It directly replaces WR51X10030, AP3183311, 914088, AH303781, EA303781, PS303781, SH323, and EAP303781. Often replaced together with the defrost thermostat (WR50X10068) and temperature sensor (WR55X10025) for a complete defrost system repair. Installs in 20–30 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO WR51X10055 Refrigerator Defrost Heater Assembly fixes GE and Hotpoint refrigerators where frost is building up on the evaporator coils, the freezer is too warm, the fresh food section is warming up, or the refrigerator is running continuously without cooling properly. Single quartz tube heater, 120V / 725W. Assembly measures 12-1/8" L x 3-3/8" W x 2-1/8" H. Includes heater and bracket. Replaces WR51X10030, AP3183311, 914088, SH323, and more.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Refrigerator Before Starting — Wear Work Gloves Unplug the refrigerator before beginning. Remove all food and shelving from the freezer compartment. Remove the freezer bottom drawer and the back panel screws (typically 2 hex-head screws). Slide out the back panel to expose the evaporator coils and defrost heater assembly. If the coils are covered in frost or ice, use a hair dryer to melt the ice before removing the heater — do not chip or force the heater free while iced over, as the glass element is fragile and will break. Disconnect the heater wires from the wiring harness — note the orientation before disconnecting. Remove the 2 Phillips screws securing the heater bracket and lift the heater assembly out. Install the new WR51X10055 heater assembly in the same position, reconnect the wires, and reinstall the bracket screws. Reinstall the back panel, shelving, and food. Restore power and verify the defrost cycle operates normally. Wear work gloves throughout — the evaporator area has sharp edges. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 1/4" nut driver, hair dryer (if coils are iced over), work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the refrigerator defrost heater do?
Modern refrigerators use an automatic defrost system that periodically runs a defrost cycle — typically once or twice a day — to melt frost that accumulates on the evaporator coils during normal operation. The defrost heater is a glass quartz heating element that energizes during this cycle and melts the frost off the coils. This keeps the coils clear so air can flow freely through them to cool the refrigerator. When the heater fails, frost builds up unchecked on the coils over days or weeks — eventually blocking airflow completely and causing both compartments to warm up, even though the compressor is still running.
How do I know if my defrost heater has failed?
Remove the freezer back panel to expose the evaporator coils. If the coils are heavily coated in frost or solid ice — especially if both the freezer and refrigerator sections have been warming up — a failed defrost heater is the most likely cause. You can confirm with a multimeter: disconnect the heater and probe both wire ends. A working heater shows continuity (resistance between approximately 10–200 ohms at room temperature depending on wattage). No continuity confirms the heater element has burned out. Also visually inspect the glass tube — a burned, blackened, or broken tube is a clear sign of failure.
Should I also replace the defrost thermostat and temperature sensor?
Yes — since the freezer must be fully emptied and the back panel removed to replace the heater, it is highly recommended to also replace the defrost thermostat (WR50X10068) and temperature sensor (WR55X10025) at the same time. All three components form the defrost system and wear at similar rates. A failed thermostat or sensor can cause the heater to run too long or not at all — replacing all three in a single repair eliminates that risk and saves you from another complete freezer teardown in the near future.
My freezer is warming up but the compressor is running — is it the defrost heater?
It often is — but not always. A compressor that is running but not cooling can be caused by a failed defrost heater (frost blocking airflow), a faulty evaporator fan motor (air not circulating), a defrost thermostat or timer failure, or a sealed system problem (refrigerant leak or compressor issue). The easiest way to distinguish a defrost system failure from other causes is to open the freezer and check whether frost has built up on the back panel or coils. If yes, the defrost heater is the most likely culprit. If the coils are clear and the compressor is running, look at the evaporator fan or sealed system next.
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 as a single quartz tube glass heater rated at 120V/725W to match the dimensions and performance of the original WR51X10055 defrost heater assembly.

W10599356 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Washer Water Inlet Valve
The W10599356 is a genuine Whirlpool OEM water inlet valve for Whirlpool-built front-load washers, including full-size and compact models. This valve sits at the back of the washer where the hot and cold water supply hoses connect, and it's the gatekeeper for every drop of water that enters the drum. When the control calls for water, it energizes the valve's solenoid coils to open the hot side, the cold side, or both together, and closes them again once the correct fill level is reached. A valve that won't open leaves you with no fill at all; a valve that won't fully close can let water trickle or flow into the drum even when the cycle isn't calling for it.
Over time, mineral deposits and sediment from the water supply can build up inside the valve body and prevent it from sealing fully, the internal solenoid coil can burn out electrically, and the rubber diaphragm or seal inside can simply wear out with age. A failing valve on this platform commonly triggers an F8 E1 or similar fill-related error code, since the control expects water to reach the correct level within a set time and flags it when that doesn't happen. It directly replaces AP5692067, 3023192, PS8689091, and W10509710. As a genuine OEM part, the W10599356 is manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.
Quick Answer
The W10599356 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Washer Water Inlet Valve fixes Whirlpool-built front-load washers that won't fill, fill slowly, overfill, leak water into the drum when the cycle isn't running, or throw an F8 E1 or similar fill-related error code. Solenoid-actuated water inlet valve for the hot and cold supply connections. Replaces AP5692067, 3023192, PS8689091, W10509710. Consider replacing the fill hoses at the same time — they wear on a similar schedule and share the same access point.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Washer won't fill with water at the start of the cycle
Washer fills much more slowly than normal
Washer overfills or takes on more water than the cycle calls for
Water trickling or leaking into the drum when the washer is off or between cycles
F8 E1 or similar fill-related error code displayed on the control panel
Cycle stalling at the fill step and never advancing to wash
No hot water, no cold water, or neither reaching the drum
Water pooling underneath or behind the washer near the supply connections

Installation Notes
⚠️ Shut Off Water Supply And Unplug Washer Before Starting — Have A Towel Ready Unplug the washer or shut off its circuit breaker, and shut off both the hot and cold water supply valves before beginning. Wear work gloves. Disconnect the hot and cold water supply lines from the back of the valve first — have a towel or shallow pan ready, since residual water will spill out. Use a 1/4" nut driver or socket to remove the rear screws securing the top panel, then slide the panel back and lift it off to access the valve from inside the cabinet. Photograph the wiring connections before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the electrical connector from the old valve, remove the mounting screw or bracket (often a T-20 Torx screw), and pull the valve free from its mounting position. Install the new W10599356 in the same orientation, secure the mounting screw, and reconnect the electrical connector fully. Reattach the hot and cold water supply lines to the correct ports, 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 the tub fills at the normal rate with no leaking underneath or behind the washer. While everything is accessible, consider replacing the fill hoses as well, since they wear on a similar schedule. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver or socket, T-20 Torx bit, pliers, towel or shallow pan, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My washer shows an F8 E1 error. Does that mean the valve is definitely bad?
It's a strong indicator, but check the basics first. F8 E1 and similar fill-related codes generally mean the control didn't see water reach the expected level within its allotted fill time. Before replacing the valve, confirm both hot and cold supply valves at the wall are fully open, check the inlet screens inside the valve ports for sediment or debris, and make sure the fill hoses aren't kinked. If those check out and the washer still won't fill properly, the inlet valve itself is the likely cause.
Water keeps trickling into the drum even when the washer is off. Is that the valve?
Yes, this is one of the classic symptoms of a valve that isn't sealing fully closed. Mineral deposits, sediment, or a worn internal diaphragm can prevent the valve from shutting off completely, letting a slow trickle of water continue into the drum between cycles. This can eventually lead to an overfill or water pooling at the front of the washer, so it's worth addressing promptly rather than waiting.
Only hot or only cold water isn't coming in. Do I need to replace the whole valve?
Usually yes. Most washer inlet valves use two separate solenoid coils in one housing — one for hot, one for cold — but they're not typically sold as separately replaceable coils. If just one side has stopped working while the other functions normally, that still points to a failure inside this valve assembly, and replacing the complete unit is the standard repair.
Should I replace the fill hoses while I'm in there?
It's a good idea. The fill hoses connect right at the same point you'll already have exposed, wear on a similar timeline as the valve, and are a common source of slow leaks that get blamed on the valve. Since you're already accessing this area, replacing hoses that show any cracking, bulging, or stiffness saves you from repeating the disassembly later.
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 solenoid design, seal, and flow-rate calibration as the water inlet valve originally installed in your front-load washer.

XPARTCO W11168743 Washer Water Valve (Hot Side)
The XPARTCO W11168743 is an aftermarket replacement hot water inlet valve for Whirlpool-built top-load washers. This is a single-solenoid valve dedicated to the hot water supply — it has one hose fitting inlet and one water outlet, and its only job is to open when the control calls for hot water and close again once the correct fill level is reached. This platform pairs the hot valve with a separate two-solenoid cold valve (sold separately as W11168740), so the hot and cold sides are independent components rather than one combined valve body.
Because it's a dedicated single-function valve, a failure here produces a distinctive symptom: hot-only fills stop working or slow down dramatically, while cold fills (governed by the separate cold valve) continue working normally on their own. Common failure causes include mineral or sediment buildup that prevents the valve from sealing fully, a burned-out solenoid coil, or a worn rubber grommet or gasket at the push-on outlet connection. It directly replaces WPW10240948, W10240948, W10921515, 33390068, 4585634, AP6327638, PS12348074, and EAP12348074.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO W11168743 Washer Water Valve (Hot Side) fixes Whirlpool-built top-load washers where hot water won't fill, fills slowly, overfills, leaks into the drum when off, or fails to stop filling. Single-solenoid hot-only valve, 120V, 60Hz, standard hose fitting inlet with push-on outlet connection. Replaces WPW10240948, W10240948, W10921515, 33390068, 4585634, AP6327638, PS12348074, EAP12348074. This is the hot-side valve only — the companion cold-side valve is sold separately as W11168740.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Washer won't fill with hot water while cold water fills normally
Hot water fills much more slowly than it used to
Washer overfills or won't stop filling
Water leaking or trickling into the drum on the hot side when the washer is off
Washer not washing properly due to insufficient hot water reaching the drum
Cycle stalling at the fill step and never advancing to wash
No hot water reaching the washer despite the water heater and supply line working correctly
Water pooling underneath or behind the washer near the hot supply connection

Installation Notes
⚠️ Shut Off Water Supply And Unplug Washer Before Starting — Have A Towel Ready Unplug the washer or shut off its circuit breaker, and shut off both the hot and cold water supply valves before beginning. Wear work gloves. Disconnect the hot 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 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 next to each other and it's easy to cross a wire. Disconnect the electrical connector from the old hot valve, disconnect the push-on outlet hose (check the rubber grommet for wear and replace it if it looks flattened or cracked), remove the mounting screw or bracket, and pull the valve free — leave the cold valve (W11168740) undisturbed if it isn't also being replaced. Install the new W11168743 in the same position, secure the mounting screw, reconnect the electrical connector, and press the outlet hose back onto its fitting with the grommet properly seated. Reattach the hot 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 hot water fills at the normal rate with no leaking underneath or behind the washer. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, nut driver, pliers, towel or shallow pan, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
Hot water won't fill but cold 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 hot side only affects hot fills while the cold valve keeps working independently. If hot-specific cycles are the ones failing while cold cycles are unaffected, this hot-side 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's actually failed. If only hot fills are affected, replacing this W11168743 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.
Is this the same valve used on your front-load washer listings?
No. This valve is built for Whirlpool's top-load platform. The front-load hot/cold valve pair in our catalog (W11688994 and W11688995) is a completely different part family for a different washer design, and the two are not interchangeable. Always check whether your washer is a top-load or front-load model, and verify your exact model number, before ordering either.
My washer has no hot water at all, but the water heater is working. What should I check first?
Before assuming the valve has failed, confirm the hot water supply valve at the wall behind the washer is fully open, check the inlet screen inside the valve port for sediment or debris that could be restricting flow, and make sure the hot supply hose isn't kinked. If those check out and hot water still isn't reaching the drum, the valve itself is the likely cause.
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 single-solenoid design, connection type, and dimensions of the original W11168743 hot water valve used in compatible Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Inglis, and related top-load washers.

XPARTCO 5220FR2008F Washer Water Valve
The XPARTCO 5220FR2008F is an aftermarket replacement water inlet and dispenser valve assembly for LG front-load washers, and also fits select Kenmore models. This valve connects to your home's water source and to the washer's solenoid wiring, controlling exactly how much water enters the tub and ensuring the correct fill level for each cycle. The assembly has 1 inlet and 4 outlets.
Rated 120V, 60Hz. 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 continuing to fill even after it should be full, filling slowly, overfilling, or leaking water into the drum when the washer is off. On some LG models, this can also trigger an FE error code specifically tied to the fill process. It directly replaces AP4445613, 1268512, 5221ER1002B, AH3527431, EA3527431, and PS3527431.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO 5220FR2008F Washer Water Valve fixes LG and select Kenmore front-load washers that keep filling past full, fill slowly, overfill, or leak water into the drum when off — sometimes accompanied by an FE error code. 120V, 60Hz, 1 inlet, 4 outlets. Replaces AP4445613, 1268512, 5221ER1002B, AH3527431, EA3527431, PS3527431. Some LG steam washers use this valve alongside a separate hot water valve — if only one side is failing, you may only need to replace the specific valve at fault rather than the whole group.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Washer continues filling with water even after it should be full
Washer filling slowly
Washer overfilling
Water leaking into the drum when the washer is turned off
FE error code displayed during the fill portion of the cycle

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. Access on most LG front-load washers requires removing the top cover to reach the water valve assembly and its electrical connections and hoses. On models with multiple valves (some LG steam washers use one separate hot water valve plus a group of cold water valves), identify specifically which valve is failing before removing anything — check your old valve's printed part number and compare it against a reference photo, since several LG valves look very similar. Photograph the wiring and hose connections before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the electrical connector and hose from the failing valve, remove its mounting screws, and pull it free. Install the new 5220FR2008F in the same position, reconnect the hose and electrical connector fully, and secure the mounting screws. Restore the water supply and power, then run a full test cycle to confirm correct fill behavior with no leaking or error codes. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, pliers, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My washer shows an FE error code. Is this the valve I need?
Possibly. One customer reported an FE error appearing while the machine was still "filling," which pointed to one of the hot or cold water valves not working correctly. If your FE error consistently appears during the fill portion of the cycle, this valve is a reasonable place to start troubleshooting.
My washer has more than one water valve. Do I need to replace all of them?
Not necessarily. Some LG steam washers use a separate hot water valve plus a group of valves fed from the cold water main, and it's common for only one specific valve in that group to actually be bad. One customer confirmed this exact setup, testing and replacing only the single failing valve rather than the entire group, which resolved their issue.
How do I make sure I'm ordering the correct valve, since several look similar?
Check the part number printed directly on your old valve and compare it, along with a photo if available, against the listing before ordering. One customer specifically noted that several LG valves looked alike, and having a clear reference photo was what let them positively identify the correct replacement.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine LG OEM part, but is manufactured to match the solenoid design, inlet/outlet configuration, and electrical rating of the original 5220FR2008F valve used in compatible LG and Kenmore front-load washers.
