Leak FIXED!
Part came quickly, despite being the week before Christmas. After watching the short tutorial on how to do it, it took all of 30 minutes to replace the inlet/dispenser valve in my washing machine from start to finish. Just another example of why I fix my own appliances and only use partselect.com for my component purchases.

Easy repair but order two boot washers and hot water insert.
There are two boot washers and an insert that goes in the hot water inlet side that should be ordered as well. Other than that the part is exactly like the original.

Washer was filling with water when not in use
This repair was pretty simple. Unplug washer from electrical outlet and remove hoses. This is a good time to replace the hoses. Removed two screws at the back of the washer to remove the top of the washer. This exposed the faulty valve assembly. Disconnect the three connections. There are two screws holding this part in place. The top on
... Read moree is easy to remove, the bottom one is a little more difficult due to access. Remove plastic retainer plate on back of washer. Remove faulty valve assembly. There are two rubber grommets/gaskets that will need to be removed from the faulty part and installed on the new part. Slide new assembly into place. Secure with the two screws. Replace retainer plate. Reattach power connections. Reattach hoses and finally Reinstall top of washer. Total time was right around 30 minutes.

Water pooled in machine when not in use with door left open and turned off.
I unplugged the washer, turned off hot and cold water at the source. I wrenched off the 2 hoses from the washer (have a towel handy for the residual water in the hoses and keep them elevated until you can drain the residual water out into drain site, where you turn off the water supply). I removed the 2 screws that held the top panel on (
... Read moreback side top corners) & slide off top to see interior. I used screw driver to pop off plastic piece that secures 3 tubes (hot water, cold water & exhaust vent). I then unplugged all 3 wire harnesses from the water valve & temperature wire from left side [assuming you are standing at the back of the machine where you have to be to do all this work]. I then untwisted the exhaust vent plastic tube (large cream tube at far right in machine) & somehow managed to get it pulled out. I then unscrewed the 2 screws from the old water valve- one on left is easy, the one on the right is difficult due to lower position next to exhaust vent - I had to hold my other hand [thankfully I have small hands] under the screw location as my screwdriver was not magnetic so I wouldn't drop the screw into the machine). I then removed the valve assembly by pulling slowly backward & removed. I then just reversed the above to replace the new one. Not bad for my 1st washer fix ever. I've used it 5 cycles now and no issues.

I had tried to clean the small basket type screens at the rear of the inlet valve but both of them disintegrated
Following the instructions on your page I was able to see quite clearly what needed to be done. I received the new part promptly and my machine is now working fine. However, the ongoing story with the dryer is another matter.

Washer was in the garage, and we had a hard freeze. Water in the valve froze, breaking the valve.
Took the top off the washer, removed the valve, installed the new one, back in buisness. It was so easy to order the part, and have the repair done in no time.

I have a machine that starts to allow water in and then stops and does nothing else.
For model number FAFW3511KW0
Hi Dave,
Thank you for your inquiry. If the washer starts to allow water in and then stops and does nothing else, then you will need to check the water inlet valve. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

My Electrolux/Frigidaire washer works great, have replaced door lock failure already but now i have a drum filled with water about once every three weeks when i come down to do laundry. Yesterday it was all over the floor which i guess tells me the boot may be leaking too, and that the water is still coming in when i walk away. Is this likely the water inlet value?
For model number LLTF2940FE1
Hello Katherine, Thank you for the question. In most cases the Valve will need to be replaced. The port can become "Stuck" open and allow water through when not in use. We hope this helps.

My washer leaks and it looks like it comes from underneath the machine and not sure where to start. I do not think its coming from the door as the water never runs out of there during the whole cycle.
For model number FAFW3517KRI
Hello Caleb, thank you for inquiring. For this symptom you will want to replace either the Water Inlet and Dispenser Valve part PS1145692, the Drain Hose part PS975871, or the Drain Pump part PS7783938. We hope this helps.

Hello.
The cold water will not shut off when the machine is started and continue to run non stop even when the machine is set to off .
This happens on each setting. I’ve tried unplugging the power to reset the machine but that didn’t help.
Than you .
For model number GLTF2940ES2
Hello Shmonster, thank you for getting in touch. Based on our understanding of the issue, we would recommend replacing the water inlet valve, part number PS1145692. It control and monitors the amount of water flow into the washer. We hope this solves your problem!

My washer will not fill, water valves are on.
For model number FAFW3801LW3
Hi Bob, Thank you for the question. If the valve is getting power but not releasing water into the tub it may need to be replaced. PartSelect Number: PS1145692. If the valve is good you may have a defective control board, PartSelect Number: PS3492720. Hope this helps!

My washing machine will go through it complete washing cycle but at the end of the washing cycle the door stays locked and the cold water starts to fill up in the machine. The only way to stop it is to un plug the machine. But when i plug it back in to power the cold water starts filling it up again. Is this the water inlet valve that's causing the problem. I have a lot of sand in my water and it has got into the inlet valve.
For model number CFW4500KW0
Hi Charles, Thank you for the question. I suggest trying to clean the valve out first and if this doesn't fix the issue the valve will need to be replaced. Hope this helps!

I recently replaced these three parts- water i and d valve, door strike and lock switch. My machine, when i start it, does not fill but sounds like an automatic weapon. Please help.
For model number CFW5000FW1
Hi Carolyn,
Thank you for your question. If the washer is not working, there are some parts that you will need to check to see which ones are causing the issue. You will need to check the door lock and switch assembly, the door strike, the door hinge with bushings, the shock absorber kit, the drain pump and the motor control board. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!
