285805 Whirlpool Washer Water Inlet Valve

This Top Load Washer Water Inlet Valve Assembly allows hot and cold water to fill in the washer. This assembly includes (1) body fill valve in blue, (1) mounting bracket, (1) screw and installation instructions. If your washer is leaking, has no hot or cold water, will not stop filling with water, will not fill with water, fills and drains at the same time, or is noisy, replacing the water inlet valve may alleviate these issues. To confirm that the valve is faulty, unplug the washer when the symptom occurs. If the washer continues to fill, then the inlet valve may not be working properly. Replacing this part will require basic hand tools, some disassembly of the appliance and novice repair experience. You must unplug the appliance or shut off the house circuit breaker before installing this part. Also make sure you turn off the hot and cold water supplies.
