134637810 Washing Machine Water Inlet Valve

Key Features

• Dual-Solenoid Design: Features two independent electromagnetic coils to precisely control the flow of both hot and cold water for accurate temperature mixing.
• Optimized Flow Rate: Engineered to provide the specific water volume required for Electrolux-built front-load and top-load washers, ensuring the tub fills within the timed cycle parameters.
• Internal Sediment Filters: Includes two integrated stainless steel mesh screens at the intakes to catch pipe scale and debris before they reach the internal valve diaphragms.
• Reinforced Polymer Housing: Constructed from heat-stabilized, chemical-resistant plastic to withstand high incoming water pressure and standard laundry detergents.

When to Replace

• Slow Fill or No Fill: The washer starts and the door locks, but water does not enter the tub, or it fills so slowly that the machine displays a "Long Fill" error code.
• Constant Overfilling: Water continues to enter the washer even when it is turned off or unplugged, which can lead to flooding.
• Leaking at the Rear: Visible water dripping from the back of the machine near the hose connection points.
• Loud Humming or Buzzing: A loud vibrating noise during the fill phase indicates a failing solenoid coil.
• Inaccurate Water Temperature: The machine only fills with hot or only cold water, regardless of the cycle setting, suggesting one of the two solenoids has failed.

Installation Tips

• Safety First: Shut off the hot and cold water supply valves and unplug the washing machine from the power outlet before starting the repair.
• Accessing the Valve: For front-load models, you typically only need to remove the top panel screws to reach the valve at the rear.
• Hose Management: Have a bucket or towel ready when disconnecting the supply hoses, as there will be residual water in the lines.
• Wiring: The wiring harnesses are often color-coded or keyed. Take a photo before disconnecting to ensure the hot and cold solenoids are wired correctly on the new unit.
• Sealing: Hand-tighten the fill hoses, then give them a final 1/4 turn with pliers. Do not over-tighten, as the plastic threads on the valve can strip.
