If your washing machine is leaking, slow to fill, will not stop filling with water, or is not filling at all, the cold-water inlet valve may be defective. The purpose of the valve is to open to allow water into the washer, and is used for cold water, liquid bleach, and prewash cycles in your washing machine. This is a genuine OEM replacement part that measures approximately 4 inches long and 3 inches wide. It has a standard hose fitting inlet along with two outlets facing 45 degrees to the right and one outlet facing 45 degrees to the left. When replacing this part, you will want to disconnect the power and water to your washer and remove the fill hoses. You will need to pull the machine out far enough so that you are able to access the back panel where the valves are located.

I replaced this cold water inlet valve and I am afraid I might have mixed up the pre wash and main wash hoses. I know 100% that the hose marked 'bleach' goes in the right most port, but what are the order of the other 2? Is main wash suppose to be the center port on the inlet valve?
Hi Javier,
Thank you for your question. We have included a link to one of our YouTube videos that you may reference on how to install the water inlet valve. The washer in the video may appear different from yours, but it will give you a general idea on how to install the valve and the hoses. If you have any questions, please let us know. We are open 7 days a week. We look forward to hearing from you!

My LG washer 3 years old left fabric dispenser filled with water. Technician said we needed this part. We bought part and error codes fa and ie came on along with the area being flooded overnight.
He tells me it was a defective part and not him that allowed the water to continuously run. Your thoughts would be appreciated.
For model number WM3670HWA
Hello Jack, Thank you for the question. If the water continues to fill even when the appliance is not in use, normally indicates the Valve is defective. The Valve can be tested as well. Set your multitester to the R X 1 ohms setting to test for continuity. Place each of the multitester's leads on a terminal. Your multitester should display a reading between 200 and 500 ohms. Closely examine your water inlet valve. The exact ohm resistance rating you should test for may be marked on the valve. We hope this helps!
