WPW10289387 Whirlpool Water Inlet Valve for Washing Machines

The Water Inlet Valve for Washing Machines is a genuine OEM component designed for Whirlpool washers. This part is crucial for managing the entry of both hot and cold water into the machine during its fill cycles. By regulating water flow, the valve plays a key role in maintaining the efficiency of the washing process.

Whirlpool manufactures this component not only for its own brand but also for other brands including Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. Additionally, it serves appliances sold under the Sears-Kenmore and Ikea labels.

A malfunctioning water inlet valve can result from several factors such as extended use, accumulation of mineral deposits from hard water, or electrical faults that hinder the valve's operation.

Common indicators of a faulty water inlet valve are:

- The washer does not fill with water
- Water fills the washer slowly or inadequately
- The washer fills continuously, even when switched off
- Water leaks or drips near the valve

This valve is also compatible with appliances from Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore.
