Sample Model Number Tags
Model numbers can be made up of numbers (1005400, for example) or a combination of letters and numbers (LAT1000AAE). The model number will most likely appear on either a paper sticker or a metal plate. Your appliance's model number tag may look similar to the sample model number tags shown here (model number highlighted in yellow):
This is an inlet valve for models of compatible washing machines. Inlet valves are electrically controlled solenoid valves that open and close as needed during the washing cycle, to allow water into the washer. If the inlet valve has failed in your washer, you will likely see an error code or your washer simply will not start due to its failure, and it may even begin to leak water into your washer tub, and will need to be replaced immediately. This part features two valves, each with their own respective wire terminals. When replacing this inlet valve, needle-nose pliers, a socket wrench, and screwdriver will be needed, as well as some disassembly of your washing machine. This inlet valve is an OEM part that does not come sold with any other parts or accessories.
How Buying OEM Parts Can Save You Time and Money
Why buy the real thing?
OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer. Simply put, this means that the company who made your appliance is also supplying the replacement part for it.

Easy peezy
Pop out the old part and pop in new one.
Hint: When you turn washer on, this washer anyway, it booted up like a computer would and cycled through a bunch of what looked like errors in the LED window but it finally finished and worked fine.

... Read moret & cold inlet hoses from washer (have bucket handy to catch water in hoses). Take picture of old water valve so you can reinstall electrical clips in exact same sequence! Remove 3 short screws that anchor water valve; lift out water valve; disconnect clips; gently life out old water valve. Install new water valve in reverse order.
Use needle-nose pliers as a lever to remove tight electrical clips (they are not designed to come loose easily). Google online videos. Really easy, when you watch a couple videos!

Water is leaking into the tub when washer is not in use. I think I need to replace a water inlet valve. Is this the correct part for that?
For model number GTW685BPL0DG
Hi Amanda,
Thank you for your question. If there is water leaking into the tub when the washer is off, then a component in the water inlet valve, part number PS12171559, has failed and you will need to replace it. Good luck with your repair!

I have water leaking from detergent tray area into washer tub when the unit is off. I turned off the water supply to washer and that stopped the leaking. Water drains fine but when water supply is turned on, water continues to leak from detergent tray area. I believe I need to replace the water valve assembly but not too sure before I buy to replace. Never worked on a washer before please let me know If I’m correct?
For model number GTW680BSJ5WS
Hello Albert, Thank you for the question. We would agree the Port on the Valve for the Dispenser is "stuck" open and allowing water through even when the appliance is not in use. This would require the Valve to be replaced. If you need help placing an order, customer service is open 7 days a week. Please feel free to give us a call. We look forward to hearing from you!

No hot water wash only cold when hot is on i get nothing cold wash fine is it my inlet valve thank you for your time
For model number gtw680bsj6ws
Hi Russ, thank you for your question. Usually when you are having water issues like this the part to check would be your water inlet valve. You can test the valve with a multi meter to be sure. The solenoids should be reading anywhere between 500 - 1500 ohms to be in working order. Good luck with your repair.

I have a h20 supply error message as the machine fills about 1/2 way. It continues to read sensing when filling and then it drains and the h20 supply message comes on as the machine drains out but does not agitate the clothes. I have replaced the lid lock mechanism, the supply lines as well as the quad valve assembly. I am at a loss what the problem could be?
For model number GTW680BSJ4WS
Hi Tim, thank you for question. The H2O supply error would mean that you are having an issue with the supply of water into your appliance. Generally this issue is caused by either the water inlet valve: PS12171559. Good luck with your repair.

The tank fills up, but the sensor in the computer part isn’t recognizing the water in the tub. Once the tub is full the computer says h2o supply. I’m assuming that means it thinks there’s no water in the tub. It fills and drains. I am looking to buy this machine (used but broken) for our grandson. How old is this model?
For model number GTW750CSL0WS
Hi Susan, thank you for your question. Usually when you are having water level issues then you may want to take a look at your water level pressure switch. Which in your case is part of your wiring harness. I have listed that part down below for you. Good luck with your repair.
I have two problems with my washer. 1) The fabric softener is not be dispensed during the cycle, maybe not getting water to flush it out????? 2)Water is dripping in the tub after the cycle. completes. Will it fix both issues if I replace the water valve in the washer?
For model number GTW680BSJ5WS
Hello Tom, thank you for your inquiry. Yes, both of the issues you described could most probably occur due to a malfunctioning water inlet valve. We would recommend checking the water inlet valve, part number PS12171559, to solve the problem. We hope this helps!

My GE washing machine is leaking from the upper back. Water doesn’t go into the machine it is just leaking. Is it the valve that i need to change?
For model number GTW580BMROWS
Hi Deenyna,
Thank you for your question. If water is leaking from from the upper back of the washer, check and make sure that the inlet hoses are tightly secured and that they are not cracked or damaged. Check the water inlet valve for cracks or other damage that may cause water to leak from it. If these parts show any signs of damage, they will need to be replaced. We hope this helps!
Water keeps dripping into basket. We’ve shut off water and unplugged the washer but keeps dripping. What do you recommend for the correct part to fix this?
