Just replaced this on my mom's refrigerator. She's retired on a fixed income, so she could not afford to have a professional do it. I'm so grateful for your easy to follow instructions. She thinks I'm a genius now cause I was able to replace this so quickly and easily. Thanks for making me look so good 😁.

[@appliancepartspros]

You're welcome!

[@CSU-central]

I was visiting a cousin's house and noticed his water dispenser was not working, he had given up on it and was just looking to replace his refrigerator which was otherwise just fine. Ordered the parts, popped them in and he is now a happy camper. Thank you so much for the video, it was short and to the point, just what was needed.

[@appliancepartspros]

You're welcome!

[@alext8828]

The guy knows how to explain things. I'm running at normal speed for once. Excellent job.

[@steveboyles7398]

Ok, I could have bought this cheaper elsewhere, but I gotta tell you, your videos are the best, and they're free. So, I spent the extra $30 to buy it from you guys. This is not the first time your videos have made the difference, thanks.

[@hobbs2005]

Matt, I cant thank you enough for this video. You saved me at least $200 on a service call. Went and bought the part at sears for $70 and followed your video exactly. Only took about 15 minutes to do it. When it worked, I swear it felt like I fixed a rocket ship that was able to take off just before a giant meteor hit it! A bit much, yes, but thanks again.

[@JimG-hy3tw]

THANK YOU so much! I had this very same system and replacement part, but couldn't figure it out. You got me over the hump. Happy wife, happy life.

[@appliancepartspros]

Glad we were able to assist you. If we can help you in the future please let us know!

[@craigtalbot607]

Adding in the explanation of how to attach the hoses was crucial - and explaining the two sizes of hoses and electrical connections was a major time saver!

[@spanishsoapcuts2031]

OK just so everyone knows, I’m the idiot that usually has to go back-and-forth to Home Depot three times to do one repair job. I was very anxious about screwing this thing up, but following this video, and using the quick connectors, the actual swapping out literally took less than three minutes. No leaks everything looks good. Thank you so much.

[@appliancepartspros]

Glad your repair went smoothly for you!

[@gregwoodall6091]

Great video! It answered all of my questions regarding the different water line connections and how the new part is mounted vs. the new part. Professionally done, easy to understand and view. Made it a very easy replacement!!

[@jimtibbott2985]

Thank you for this tutorial! I just changed one this morning. I thought I had the wrong piece! I wasn’t aware of the need to pull them two apart.

[@menoyo1]

Solid guidance here helped me with the transition from old style connections to the newer, and only available, for new water valve on my 30 year old die hard Kenmore Elite. Note that you MUST test for leakage as it's hard to tell whether or not you pushed the tubing in hard enough to make a tight seal. I had to mess with it to eliminate seepage 100%. In plumbing, anything less than 100% leak free is failure.

[@johnscanlon4272]

Excellent video, thanks Matt! The replacement part is just as you described. Thanks especially for the tip to cut off the tubing ends for the (new) push fittings. All went back together with no issues and works great!

[@appliancepartspros]

You're welcome!

[@richward2288]

Thanks for the video. It was a big help. I'm glad I watched before starting. Initially I thought those caps on the connection were just plugs to keep the water inlets clean and I almost pulled them off. The instruction about pulling the 2 pieces apart cleared up that confusion too. Nice going

[@paulsmelser7363]

This was a great video! Sure instilled some confidence in a job that I probably wouldn't have attempted without watching it. Although I had looked at the my inlet valve I was struggling with the fact that I had screw on connectors and the part showed push on so I was afraid to order it in case it didn't work. The video gave me the confidence to go ahead. Thank you for clearing this up. I struggled with separating the inlet supply line from the inlet valve so instead of trying to pry it I drilled it out with 1/4" drill bit. Worked perfect! Thanks again.

[@karengaughan8072]

Thought I had purchased the wrong valve until I watched your video, did not realize the inlet water valve would come apart from the rest of the valve. Thanks for saving me a phone call and my weekend.

[@appliancepartspros]

Awesome, glad the video helped you get the fridge fixed!

[@franceracing16]

Just swapped my water inlet valve out. Took 10 minutes and an hour later, I have ice. Great video. Thank you.

[@appliancepartspros]

Glad the video helped you get the valve changed!

[@davidmcglynn7705]

at 3:29 the repairman is prying apart the initial piece where the water enters BEFORE it gets to the valve. That is the piece that needs to be replaced. Both nut and male portion on this initial part are stripped and wont allow compression nut and nut to seal water tightly. NO one provides this part number and it appears it doesnot come with new replacement. I have a 2006 Whirlpool and neither ApplianceParts Pros or videos address how to replace this part!

[@bobdobalina1175]

I am currently searching for that exact part. Did you have any luck finding a replacement?

[@bobdobalina1175]

Found it. Part #: WPW10445062

[@ffoozle]

Great video! It was so confusing when I purchased the new water inlet valve. It wasn't until you mentioned that the tubing and terminals are different that it made it less confusing. In addition, prying apart the water inlet source from the water inlet valve being tricky wasn't initially obvious from the part instructions. Thanks again!

[@appliancepartspros]

Glad the video helped you get the water valve changed!

[@m0dulegirl]

Thank you! I didn't find this vid before I called an incompetent repairman, but I was able to fix what he did once you explained about the compression fittings. I knew the hoses were in the wrong place but I just couldn't figure out how to get the hoses out of the fittings. Thanks again. I'll come back here first next time I need to fix an appliance.

[@ernestayo6131]

Thanks. We live in a rural area. Scheduling a repair crew & parts would have takEn forever & cost 3-4 times the part price. Took me longer working in a cramped area @ 77y/o, but the water & ice dispenser is working perfectly now.

[@bobnero19]

The BEST video on this subject that's out there. And I've watched all 7,000 of them.

[@appliancepartspros]

Glad we were able to help you out. If there is anything we can help you with in the future please let us know.

[@appliancepartspros]

If its leaking from both it could be a few things. Such as the valve is bad or clogged and its letting water through. The refrigerator needs 30-120 lbs of water pressure to work, if its low they could slowly leak. Many people have a problem if they install a R/O system, as it drops the pressure to the refrigerator. Make sure the water supply valve is all the way open. A dirty, clogged water filter can also cause pressure problems, make sure if you have one it is new and changed regularly.

[@kristenreilly7098]

Great video, quick and easy. I would have struggled at the push disconnect if I didn't watch this video prior to the replacement. Thank you.

[@DOSorbust]

Fantastic! My 8 year old replaced the part with your guidance. One thought: our fridge had two different sized hoses so just figure out which one goes where. Thank you for helping us.

[@appliancepartspros]

Nice job, glad you guys got it installed. The 1/4" line is for the ice maker and the 5/16" line is for the dispenser.

[@folabiolat9744]

Thank you for the straight forward instructions. I have a Kenmore refrigerator, model number 51274200 very similar to the one in the video. The water does not come out from the dispenser, I replaced the water inlet valve which was made by Robert Shaw and now the dispenser works and the ice maker works.

[@appliancepartspros]

Glad we could help!

[@appliancepartspros]

First check for any ice build up in the tube that goes through the back wall. The water valve could be clogged or not working properly. You can test the solenoid that opens the water valve, it should read between 300-500 ohms. Make sure you unplug the refrigerator first. If the solenoid check out then it could be an issue with the ice maker. If you have any questions please feel free to post on our repair forum.

[@lorimarrivera1962]

I get 408 ohms on two of the coils but only 237 ohms on the ice maker coil (green). Is that OK? Frigidaire FFSS2614QS6A

[@rachaelmond]

Thank you so much for this video. I especially like the common sense discription like squaring off after cutting and that the parts look different but function the same. Addressing this makes a person who isn't an expert but a DIKZbinr feel a lot more confident in her repair. And I installed this about 4 months ago by piecing together from other videos and service manuals. If I had watched yours right after I got my part it would have saved me a lot of time and a headache!

[@appliancepartspros]

We're glad that you found our video helpful! Click subscribe to stay up to date as we add new ones weekly. :)

[@shawn702206]

Great. Everything fit and aligned with the video BUT still no water? Any idea what else it could be?

[@ChristianAVS]

Thanks for this video. The 90 degree cut explanation saved it for me. Otherwise i wouldve thought the part was faulty

[@tsingh2956]

Watched video multiple times, ordered part and changed out part as per video. Fantastic. Will watch other DIY videos!!

[@appliancepartspros]

T Singh Great, glad the video helped you get the refrigerator fixed!

[@mikesn5va]

I almost returned my part as it differed from the original. Thanks so much for the excellent video!

[@appliancepartspros]

Glad we could help! Manufacturers do change the design of parts frequently in an attempt to make parts compatible with as many of their appliances as possible. We only carry original manufacturer parts, as long as you research the part by model number, you can be assured the part is correct for your unit per the manufacturer.

[@megaHARLEYMC]

Your video shows exactly the same frig and water pump. Grt video! I'm going to order this part from you website. My problem was a slow drip at the water filtered dispenser in front of the frig. On another video I saw I had to replace the water valve, so that's what I'm doing. Thanks!

[@appliancepartspros]

+Luciano Aldana Glad the video helped you get the water valve changed!

[@bobm1052]

Thank you. It was the tube connection I needed to understand. You even explain removal of the slip-on connection.

[@jordanmcintyre6028]

Excellent video! Changed mine step by step and it worked just fine. No leaks.

[@davidbrown9943]

Thanks, Matt. Excellent video. Sad for me, it didn't fix my problem of minimal flow at ice maker/water dispenser. Other ideas welcome.

[@JustinAtwell1]

Your video helped me save a ton of money by simply re-cutting and re-fitting a water line. Sorry! Thanks, though!

[@appliancepartspros]

The inlet valve a common problem. Also check for water pressure issues, clogged line, old filter, air in lines etc. According to the model number you supplied, this is the valve used: AP5263471.

[@KeithWechslerB]

I was nervous as your video was more detailed than the one from the part manufacturer. Without your addition of cutting off the old compression fittings, I would have been lost. Just have to wait for my Whirlpool ice machine to suck the air out of the ice line. Wish there was a was to manually cycle. Thank you so much.

[@appliancepartspros]

Awesome, glad the video helped you out!

[@appliancepartspros]

If you go to our site and click on the top where it says repair forum you can search for "ice maker not working" and get some info. Or you can ask your own question. There is a few thing to check and it is more than I can put in here. I would start with checking the fill tube where it goes through the back wall to be sure its not frozen up.

[@TrippNPhotos]

Very good video for a DIYer. I really liked how they covered how to release the water lines

[@Jnr106]

Excellent video! Followed exactly as shown and worked like a charm. Thanks for posting this!

[@marshallborder9089]

Wish this video had been around when I replaced ours , great video helper !

[@appliancepartspros]

Glad the video helped you out!

[@bibur104]

This company is the BOMB!!! I watched the video on Monday, clicked on the link ordered the part Monday afternoon received email saying it had been shipped!😳. Part was here and, thanks to the video, I installed it wed! Fucking impressive! I'm ordering all my parts from you all from now on!

[@appliancepartspros]

Good job, glad you got the valve installed!

[@michaeltaylor1764]

Great video. Thank you. This saved me. I had no idea how to deal with those new pushin type connectors until I watched your video.

[@appliancepartspros]

Michael Taylor Glad the video helped you get the water valve changed!

[@appliancepartspros]

Ronald Wilhelm, I cannot respond as you have the reply feature off. Once you turn the water on it may take a little while for the ice maker to go through a cycle and call for water. If your valve was leaking water up to the ice maker make sure the fill tube going through the back wall is not iced up. If it still does not make ice you will have to look deeper and see it there is another problem such as the ice maker itself or maybe the infrared sensor, if you have that. You can also post the problem along with the appliance model number on our repair forum and the techs can help you troubleshoot the problem.

[@TMosa00]

I gotta say this video and these guys are spot on.... Very helpful. Subscriber and customer now,,, thanks for taking the time for putting together a quality video series.

[@appliancepartspros]

You are welcome! Glad the videos helped you out.

[@publicmail2]

Use silver tape on carboard back where it meet metal on bottom on coil side, otherwise fan will not pull air across coil properly. I clean coil with soapy water in pump sprayer, works well and is easy. If coils are not cleaned compressor runtimes and life greatly shortened. Don't pay more then 20-25 for these on ebay same valve.

[@michaelvanv]

Thank you, ApplianceParts Pros... this was just the video I needed. I just successfully replaced the water pump on our Kenmore refrigerator (circa 2000), thanks to you and the complete, concise training/education in this video! Michael

[@appliancepartspros]

Glad the video helped you get the refrigerator fixed!

[@craigtalbot607]

[@marthafaulkner4692]

you've made it look so easy I must try it. here's hoping it works

[@appliancepartspros]

Hope you get the valve swapped out!

[@appliancepartspros]

It is always best to look up the part by the model number on our site. But here is the note we have on this water valve: Due to manufacturer changes this valve no longer includes the removable pre-filter bracket. If you are unable to use the old removable pre-filter bracket order AP5306962.

[@mjukaku]

Wow. What a helpful video. Thank you for explaining that the new part is now two different parts. Calling Sears directly was useless unfortunately. I needed the pre-filter bracket (not the water inlet valve), and I used the model number above at your website. Fit perfectly and saved $500 on labor. Thank you!

[@daylerebelein9289]

we completed this repair - thanks for such clear instructions. When we turned the water on, the water dispenser in front started pouring water. I have seen some repair blogs that talk about water pressure and resetting the valve so that the dispenser will shut off again. Can you tell me more about this process?

[@daylerebelein9289]

Kenmore Elite Model 50792000

[@Pract1c0]

thank you! great explanation of the push style connector

[@fletchkc35]

Great video. I went to change out my valve and found the part that he has to pry off that connects the copper pipe needs to be replaced. It’s so bunked up I’m surprised I have any ice cubes. Does anyone know what that piece is called? I can’t seem to find it in my searches. Thanks!

[@appliancepartspros]

Did you make sure you turned the water supply on, all the way? How long has it been since the filter has been changed? Check the water tank in the fridge to see if its frozen. You need to check out everything that might cause a clog or loss of pressure.

[@emadseksek]

Hi what is the name of the part that you connect the brass water line(outside water line) to before the inlet valve

[@bobdobalina1175]

I am currently looking for the same part, did you have any luck locating one?

[@bobdobalina1175]

Found it. Part #: WPW10445062

[@appliancepartspros]

If it does not have a built in water filter the water line should go from the valve to the water reservoir in the fresh food compartment. If it has a built in water filter the water goes through the filter first, then to the reservoir and out to the dispenser.

[@loujanik1475]

Thanks again, Matt! Worked great ... certainly appreciate your video.

[@appliancepartspros]

Lou Janik You are welcome, glad the video helped you out!

[@appliancepartspros]

Make sure you are tightening the hose enough and that the hose washer is in there and in good shape. It could also be a defective valve, it is strange but it does happen from time to time.

[@blakeroni]

I just bought a replacement for my Whirlpool refrigerator because the press-lock fitting leaks from the ice tray supply line--once the valve shuts back off all the water drains back down, onto my kitchen floor. :( Great video, thanks for posting it and for including exceptional instructions!

[@stojax777]

Is anyone aware if this part can be the reason of bad water taste. I installed a water source directly from the filtration/alkalinization system to fridge, however the water has metallic aftertaste that is coming from the fridge line. I’m not sure should I change a complete waterlines in the fridge or is there a part that might cause a bad taste?

[@dogfather68]

Thank you for the how to!!

[@appliancepartspros]

You are welcome!

[@seanrhone5306]

I've replaced the water valve but when I turn the water back on there is water shooting out of the connector from the water source (wall) and the water value. I've checked that the connection is tight and not cross-threaded, what else should I check? Thanks again for this great video.

[@appliancepartspros]

Your refrigerator had an ice maker kit installed in it. The part number for the water valve is: AP3961809. You can order it on our site, we have it in stock.

[@mikemike7397]

You guys are awesome!!!

[@appliancepartspros]

If you pulled the refrigerator out and moved it around it could have cracked the hose. Those plastic hoses get old and brittle, sometimes all it takes is a little pressure or tension and you get a leak. I can't see how the other problems could cause this, other than it made you move the appliance. I think you will be alright, if you replace the supply line.

[@greglory]

Lifesaver! Thanks for sharing this little jewel.

That really really helped me. Thank you very much!

[@appliancepartspros]

You're welcome! Glad we could help.

[@appliancepartspros]

Aglarend, I cannot comment on your post as you have the rely feature off. Make sure the water is on, make sure the ice maker fill tube that goes through the back wall is not frozen up, make sure everything was reinstalled correctly and wires have good connections. You can read this post which gives a lot of info on testing the sensor and ice maker. forum.appliancepartspros.com/refrigerator-freezer-repair/5143-whirlpool-side-side-ice-maker-not-making-ice.html

[@jeanetteshibler2291]

Thanks, I will keep your site in mind.

[@appliancepartspros]

If the water valve is not sealing inside, it could cause water to drip from the fill tube and over fill the ice maker.

[@mmbrock95]

Matt, I have a Kenmore 1069532580 fridge. I need the prefilter connector (the part you didn’t change out on your video). I chatted with a tech support on your webpage and she said she didn’t show one for my unit. Where do I go from here? Can I bypass the prefilter, since I’m on well water and don’t necessarily need a prefilter? Appreciate your help! Very helpful video BTW.

[@bobdobalina1175]

[@bobdobalina1175]

Found it. Part #: WPW10445062

[@GenX-Memories]

Ok, followed these instructions with my Kenmore fridge and they were perfect, thanks! HOWEVER, the ice maker (which had been switched off due to a leak at the valve each time it tried to make ice) is now not making any ice. No water sounds like before as it pulled water up into the maker, no indication that it's doing anything, and of course, no ice in the tray. Everything is connected and installed correctly -- what could possibly be the cause of the ice maker now not pulling water to make ice, and really, not doing anything? Quick note: the little red light next to the ice maker ON/OFF switch inside the freezer is blinking red...

[@davidkim2903]

Did you ever resolve this? I'm having the same issue

[@anibalbonilla3926]

I know the electrical terminals are different sizes so you cant interchange them, but would it matter if I twisted one and turned it upside down? Is there a top and bottom when plugging them in?

[@WhyJesusWaits]

Thanks for posting these videos and offering assistance. Our Frigidaire RF stopped making ice recently. It is 10 years old. I did not do the electrical test due to the age of the unit. We have a very strong, steady flow of water coming in. I replaced the water inlet valve this weekend but still no ice. Added note that I also replaced the water filter. What should I do next?

[@appliancepartspros]

+Steve Dyrda If the ice maker stopped it is usually the valve, the ice maker or maybe a iced up fill line. Without knowing what you have I would suggest posting the problem along with the appliance model number on our repair forum and the techs can help you troubleshoot the problem. forum.appliancepartspros.com/

[@WhyJesusWaits]

+AppliancePartsPros - we are now making ice! The only thing that I did was (purely unknowingly) was to lift & lower the shut off arm and walked away. Some short time later I heard a load of fresh ice get dumped into the bin. It's been making continuously all thru the night and running smooth. Thank you all at APP once again for being there!!
