Sample Model Number Tags
Model numbers can be made up of numbers (1005400, for example) or a combination of letters and numbers (LAT1000AAE). The model number will most likely appear on either a paper sticker or a metal plate. Your appliance's model number tag may look similar to the sample model number tags shown here (model number highlighted in yellow):
The cold water inlet valve on your washing machine dispenses the cold water and bleach into the washer in the prewash cycle. This inlet valve has a standard hose fitting inlet and 2 water outlets facing 45 degrees to the left. The water inlet valve opens to allow water to enter the washing machine. If the water inlet valve is defective, the washer may leak, fill slowly, or not fill at all. To test your valve, unplug the washer when the symptom occurs. If the washer continues to fill, then your inlet valve is defective. This part is approximately 4 inches long x 3 inches wide.

Easy Repair and took 15 Minutes. Solved my leak issue
Our 1.5 year old LG Washer decided to just start leaking on evening. Did not notice until our downstairs ceiling leaked all over the new carpet and my expensive photo books. Oh well, stuff happens. Took washer apart and ran a few loads to see where it might be leaking. After researching YouTube, I finally found the leak in the little cold water pump and this $40 buck part fixed my issue. Wife had already purchased a new washer to replace this one because she thought it was the drum that was leaking. I am so glad that I researched this and this repair took 15 minutes tops. PartSelect also shipped this part overnight to me so that I could go on my 2.5 week vacation and not have to worry about repairs when I got home. This part is just like the OEM original and hopefully this will last longer than 1.5 years. If not, I know that part select will have the part and my back covered. THANKS PartSelect for everything!

Easier than expected
Our LG front load washer had been leaking for a while. I expected to find a small hole somewhere but instead found a rusty valve. I looked at a drawing to find the part name, ordered from my phone, received the part a few days later, it’s good as new. The wife is happy... well, not about doing laundry but I’m doing a few loads,too!

Take a picture of electrical connectors noting color and sequence of connectors on each inlet valve motor. Pull all connectors off.

I am convinced that the original valve began leaking because I had heard water hammer for years as that valve opened and closed during operation. I bought two water hammer arrestors (less than $30) that attach inline with the inlet hoses and I think that will prevent the problem from recurring.

Water was leaking into washing machine after the washer was shut off
Removed the cover from the washing machine, the two valves(cold & hot) are located in the read top of the machine, removed the hoses to the valves, removed the nut that holds on the valve to the washer and placed new valve into washer and placed the nut back onto new valve, placed the hoses back onto the new valve.

With my wife's help( 2 shoukder surgeries ), pulled it forward, unplugged power source, turned Both water supplies off. Removed two phillip screws from each upper ( plastic) holder.

I marked ( with a sharpie) the solenoids/hoses,and wires, ( facing front ,right to left,1,2,3.), removed plugs,loosened clamps and pushed them back,gave each hose a twist,and removed them.

Once all is hooked up,and water dried, I plugged in,turned water on watched for two cycles( you need not stand over it,if it leaks you will know it) to double check, installed top,and we pushed it back in place.

Will this fit the wm2650hva model?
For model number wm2650hva
Hello Derek, Thank you for contacting us. I have researched the model you have provided and have found the part you’re looking for is PartSelect Number: PS11728995 for the Cold water and PartSelect Number: PS3527427 for the Hot. Good luck with the repair!
I'm trying to troubleshoot my problem. After running a load of wash, water clears out, no problems. Then if i don't use the washer for a few days, about 3 cups of water fills the washing machine. It's always to aproximatly the same level and it always takes a few days of nonoperation to fill. I'm trying to figure out what to fix.
For model number WM2233HS
Hello Jenna, thank you for your question. This issue could be the water valve itself, that is leaking into the washer after the unit is done its cycles. Its possible the valve is stuck slightly open and is allowing water to come into the tub. Or, the problem might be that water is coming BACK into the unit after its been pumped out. I would recommend checking the drain hoses, and recommendations for how the unit is set up to be sure that the hoses are not kinked, or have moved. Sometimes, if the hoses are not installed properly, water can't get all the way out of the hoses then some comes back in. If the appliance was installed properly, and the hoses are clear, not kinked and set up properly, the issue is probably with the water valve for the appliance. I hope this helps!

Washer leaking in the front. What do you think is wrong?
For model number WM2016CW/01
Hello David, thank you for your question. The leaking could be coming from one of the water valve, the drain pump, or a hose that has come loose or has cracked or broken. This front load washer also has a large rubber door gasket that can sometimes get ripped and will cause leaking at the front of the unit. I would recommend removing the back panel, and top panel to see if you can locate the leak, then we can provide more information on the parts you would need to fix it! I hope this helps!

Water is leaking out the top of the inlet valves. If i replace the part is there something, like high water pressure, that i should be concerned about damaging the replacement as well?Thanks
For model number Kenmore 796
Hi Kevin,
Thank you for your question. Before installing the new water inlet valve, you will need to check the water pressure coming from the where it connects to the water inlet valve to make sure the correct amount is coming out. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

Corrected model# (computer dyslexia!). Should I replace pump and inlet valve if leaking through door bottom? Is one more likely the culprit? Would appreciate if you located correct parts. Thnx.
For model number WM2140C
Hello Jacinta, Thank you for the question. If there is a leak at the door I suggest checking the Door Gasket, PartSelect Number PS3524977 for damage or wear. Hope this helps!
