134371220 Frigidaire Water Inlet and Dispenser Valve with Thermistor for Washing Machines

Water Inlet and Dispenser Valve with Thermistor for Washing Machines

This component addresses issues where your washing machine either fails to fill or continues filling with water. It also helps prevent leaks.

Frigidaire manufactures this water inlet valve, which is compatible with Frigidaire, Electrolux, and some Kenmore models. The valve manages the flow of hot and cold water into the washer's tub, ensuring the correct temperature mix for different wash cycles. It opens and closes based on commands from the washer's control system, playing a crucial role in executing programmed wash cycles accurately, from the initial fill to the rinse phases.

Common reasons for replacing the water inlet valve include mineral deposits, sediment build-up, mechanical wear, and electrical failures.

Signs of a faulty water inlet valve include:

- Washer not filling with water
- Slow water entry into the machine
- Incorrect water temperature during filling

This OEM part can resolve symptoms such as no hot or cold water and the washer not stopping its fill cycle.
