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):
The hot water inlet valve on your washing machine controls the water flow into the washer. This inlet valve has a standard hose fitting inlet and one water outlet. The water inlet valve opens to allow water to enter the washing machine. If the water inlet valve is defective, the washer may leak, fill slowly, or not fill at all. To test your valve, unplug the washer when the symptom occurs. If the washer continues to fill, then your inlet valve is defective. This part is approximately 3 inches long x 3 inches wide.

Direct replacement for my LG washer and the easiest washing machine repair I ever made.
The cold water valve was leaking in my LG front loader washing machine so since I was replacing those valves I just went ahead and also replaced the hot water valve. I had the parts sent via next day service. PartSelect service is excellent and the parts received appear to be good quality.

pop the top, easy repair, perfect fit and operation.
The repair went easy, once I was able to get the top of the washer off. That was the tricky part, not knowing how much force it takes to pop the top panel off.

Water was collecting in the machine after it finished its cycle.
Turned off hot and cold water supply. Pulled out machine and disconnected hoses, unplugged power.
Unscrewed 4 screws at back top of machine (holding plastic bracket to cover). Pulled out trays from front where detergent is poured, and removed small screws under trays.
Slid cover back and up. This was the only tric
... Read moreky part. There are pegs that must line up with large holes in cover before you can easily lift cover up. Helps to look from underneath and find pegs on each side.
Using pliers, fully open clamps holding hoses to the inlet valves, and carefully pull off hoses while keeping clamps open with pliers… making sure to keep track of which hose goes to each motor. Take a picture of electrical connectors noting color and sequence of connectors on each inlet valve motor. Pull all connectors off.
Unscrew screws holding each inlet valve to machine. Put new inlet valves in place of old, and screw in place. Reconnect hoses (using pliers to hold open clamps, then slide clamps over tubing and inlet valve connector). Reconnect electrical connectors carefulljng lining up colors of wires and sequence using picture taken in previous step.
Replace cover. Screw all screws back to secure cover. Replace trays.
Water was building up inside drum while machine was off.
I unplugged the washer shut off the water and disconnected the hoses. Then removed the top lid and removed old valves and installed new ones. Very easy plug and play installation.
It went great. First of all, thank you Part Select for the video on how to do this myself. My home warranty company was giving me a hard time. Blah, blah, blah. A mechanic friend of mine referred me to this site. Within minutes I found the part I need and a GREAT!!!! price. Ordered it, got it super fast, fixed it my self and my second han

Water was leaking into washing machine after the washer was shut off
Removed the cover from the washing machine, the two valves(cold & hot) are located in the read top of the machine, removed the hoses to the valves, removed the nut that holds on the valve to the washer and placed new valve into washer and placed the nut back onto new valve, placed the hoses back onto the new valve.
Our washer was leaking from the washer hose. Once taken off I could see it had a small tear in it. All it took was a screwdriver and a couple minutes and we were up and running. I love PartSelect.com for always having the parts I need and getting them to me in a timely manner!
Took off the old hose with a screwdriver and put the new one on. As simple as that. You don’t need a repair man to get this done, you can do it yourself and save money too.
To fix the problem, I simply removed the top cover of the washing machine by removing the two screws on the back of the machine which allowed me to slide the top back and then I lifted it off. Then I disconnected the hot water hose (after shutting off the valve). Next, I removed the electrical connectors on the old part as well as the hos

Hot water valve was leaking
After I watched the repair video for the part, it was a snap. It went exactly as the video described the steps. Hardest part was moving the washer to get behind it.

Water continued to flow into machine during drying cycle and afterwards
This was a very easy repair. Just followed the steps in the videos on the website (I replaced both the hot and cold inlet valves, so two different videos, but the process for each is similar) and it couldn't have been simpler.

My front load LG washer ,at the end of a cycle the water will start to run and won't stop until i turn the cold water valve to off pos.
For model number Wm0642hw
Hi Jim, Thank you for the email. This sounds like an issue with the Water In let valve. If the valve is stuck open and defective it will allow water to flow through after the cycle ends. Hope this helps!

Water start to fill up the soap despener with those short blast of water that fill the cup about 3 times and then it stops and water stops going in the cup.So the soap is still left in the dispenser. The tub still fill with water. I can hear it going in
For model number WM2455HW
Hi Gerry,
Thank you for your inquiry. There are some parts that you will need to check to see which one is causing the issue. You will need to check the pressure switch, the water inlet valve, the detergent box assembly and softener cap. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

What about the cold side. Our washer keeps filling when unplugged and will stop when you turn the cold side off. You don't have to touch the hot shut off. Yes I did check to make sure washer hoses were hooked up correctly.
For model number WM2487HRM
Hi Gary, Thank you for the question. It sounds like the water inlet valve is stuck open on the cold side and is letting water through. To fix this the Inlet Valve Assembly,PartSelect Number PS3527431 will need to be replaced.Hope this helps!
Is the install for hot and cold inlet valve the same install?
For model number WM2016CW
Hello Richard, Thank you for your inquiry. There are installation videos available for both parts on our website. It appears the installation process is similar for both, but since the cold water valve has different solenoids, we would recommend watching the videos for both. I have included the links. Hope this helps!

Hello, the water sometimes flows into the washing machine and sometimes doesn't. This happens with both hot water and cold water. When the water doesn't flow it gives the error message ie, which according to the manual means not enough water pressure. We have excellent water pressure. Why would it be working sometimes and not other? Is this most likely an electrical current issue or defective pump (or something else)?
For model number WM3431HW
Hi Dasha,
Thank you for your question. If you are having an issue with water flowing into the washer, the issue is likely with the water inlet valve and it will need to be replaced. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

No hot water filling machine. Confirmed water is hot from wall supply. Replaced hot water inlet valve. Still no hot water filling machine. What else could it be and what should i try next? Thanks.
For model number WM3670HVA
Hi Christine, thank you for your question. If you have replaced the valve and you are still having the issue, then it is likely your electronic control board that is the problem. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.

Based on the troubleshooting info, i think that my inlet valve on my cold water line is defective. Is it a seperate part for the cold and hot water valve, or will the same valve work on both?
For model number WM0642HW!
Hello Lisa, Thank you for the question. The PartSelect Number PS3527429 is for the Cold water and the PartSelect Number PS3527427 is the Hot water. Hope this helps!
My cold water continues to fill even when the machine is off. The hot water does not. Will the valve replacement for hot water fit on the cold water side too?
For model number WM2501HWA
Hello Michael, Thank you for the question. This sounds like the cold water side of the valve is defective so the valve will need to be replaced. Hope this helps!

No matter the setting machine only dispenses cold water. What part would you think needs replacing?
For model number kenmore 600
Hi Rob, thank you for your question. It is likely you would need to replace your water valve if you are not getting hot water to your appliance. If you would like to test the part the valve can be tested with a multi meter and should be reading between 500 - 1500 ohms of resistance. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.
