MJX62831301 LG Secondary Water Inlet Valve

The Secondary Water Inlet Valve is a genuine OEM replacement part designed for LG refrigerators, and it is also compatible with Sears-Kenmore models. This solenoid valve manages the water flow to both the ice maker and the water dispenser. Generally, you can find this valve situated near the water line connection at the back of the refrigerator.

Over time, several issues may impair the valve's function:

1. Accumulation of clogs or debris can hinder the valve's ability to open or close effectively.
2. Regular use may lead to general wear and tear, necessitating a replacement of the valve.
3. Physical damage to the valve or its components, possibly due to mishandling or impact, can also affect its performance.

Indications of a malfunctioning water inlet valve include:

- Absence of water flow to the ice maker or water dispenser.
- Water leakage around the area of the water inlet valve.
- Unusual noise emanating from the valve.
- Failure of the ice maker to produce ice.

Addressing these symptoms promptly can help maintain the efficiency and longevity of your refrigerator.
