Hi Buddy,

Do you want to know, how to check washing machine water inlet valve? Let me assist you with this. If your washing machine's water input valve is malfunctioning, it can prevent a washer from running, filling properly, or causing it to wash at the improper water temperature. Your washer's water input valve regulates the flow of both hot and cold water and is the component that joins the two water hoses to the appliance. 

Hire a plumber from NoBroker to assist you in resolving the issue by checking the washing machine water inlet valve.

How to fix washing machine water inlet valve:

  • Examine the filter screens

Verify the water inlet valve's filter screens for blockages that could prevent water flow. This is the most frequent cause of water input valve failure and the simplest issue to fix. Look into each of the two hose fitting ports on the water inlet valve with a flashlight; there should be a screen there. If the screens are soiled, thoroughly clean them.

  • Check the Solenoids in the Inlet Valve

You should check the valve for failure if clogged screens are not the issue. To reach the wire connections on the water inlet valve, you might need to remove the front or back of the washer cabinet, depending on the type.

As necessary, remove the front, top, or back of the cabinet by following the instructions in the owner's manual for the appliance. Once you have accessed the valve, you will see that each solenoid is connected by two wires. Pull each wire out one at a time and identify them so that you can reattach them properly.

  • Water Inlet Valve Replacement (as Needed)

Remove the screws holding the valve to its housing or the washer's back. Label the wires that are connected to the solenoid after noting their colour and placement. Pulling the plugs apart will unplug the wires.

Disconnect the internal tube (or tubes) that supply water to the tub from the inlet valve. This is typically fastened with a hose clamp, which, depending on the model, you can release with a screwdriver or pliers.

If you can find it, note the manufacturer and model number of the washer as well as the manufacturer and component number of the water inlet valve. With that knowledge, you can ask a retailer of appliance components for a replacement valve.

Reverse the process of disconnecting to install the replacement valve.

I would like to conclude my answer here about the washing machine water inlet valve. I hope this helps:)
