Refrigerator Water Inlet Valve Assembly WPW10420083

Hi Marshall, Thank you for your question. Your multitester should display a reading between 200 and 500 ohms. Closely examine your water inlet valve. The exact ohm resistance rating you should test for may be marked on the valve. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

Hello Skip, Thanks for your question. Be sure to check the water lines as well to see if they are clogged or obstructed. If they are fine, check the water inlet valve and test it with a multi-meter for continuity. Replace it if it shows no continuity. It is the same as a solenoid. The part is easy to install as we include installation instructions with the part. I hope this helps.

Hello John, Thank you for the question. The most common reason are frozen water lines not allowing water to pass through and fill the ice maker. I suggest checking the line to the ice maker and unthaw if needed. Hope this helps!

Hello Alan and thanks for writing. First part to check would be your water filter, make sure it is correctly inserted and filter might need to be replaced. This is recommended at least every six months. Second check your cab filter # PS12731165 and then your water tube connector # PS11740187 as it seems your water dispenser is drawing air through a small crack in those connectors. We hope this helps. Please contact us anytime.
