W11165546 Whirlpool Washer Water Inlet Valve
This Top Load Washer Water Inlet Valve allows hot and cold water to fill in the washer. If the current valve is leaking or the solenoids are damaged, replacing this part may alleviate these issues. Please note: This valve should never be disassembled and cleaned, only replaced. Replacing this part will require basic hand tools, some disassembly of the washer and novice repair experience. You must unplug the washing machine or shut off the house circuit breaker for the appliance before installing this part. Also make sure you turn off the hot and cold water supplies. Helpful Tip: We also recommend using affresh® Washing Machine Cleaner Tablets* (item W10501250) once a month to help reduce odor-causing residue that can build up in your washing machine's drain without proper care. *affresh® brand products are owned and distributed by Whirlpool Corporation.
