WP99001359 Whirlpool Water Inlet Valve

The Water Inlet Valve is a genuine Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) part designed for Whirlpool dishwashers. This component, situated at the rear of the dishwasher, regulates the entry of water during the washing cycles. Whirlpool's range of brands includes Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. Additionally, Whirlpool manufactures compatible parts for Sears-Kenmore and Ikea appliances.

Common issues with a faulty water inlet valve stem from various sources such as the accumulation of mineral deposits after repeated use, the mechanical wear from frequent operation, or failures in its electronic components.

When the water inlet valve is malfunctioning, several signs may appear, including:
- Absence of water flow into the dishwasher at the start of cycles.
- Inconsistent water levels, either overfilling or insufficient filling of the tub.
- Leakage around the valve connections or its vicinity.

This OEM part is also suitable for use with several other brands including Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and certain Kenmore models.

The replacement of this part can resolve issues such as the dishwasher failing to fill with water.
