Part 10011043 Refrigerator Freezer Water Inlet Valve
Purpose
Regulates water flow to the ice maker or water dispenser.
Details
This genuine OEM water inlet valve manages the supply of water entering the refrigerator's internal components. When signaled by the appliance's control board, the mechanical valve cycles open to allow fluid flow into the ice-making mechanism or dispensing line. Over time, internal components can fail due to mineral buildup or electrical breakdown, resulting in symptoms such as an ice maker not making ice, a leaking water line, or complete loss of water delivery. Replacing a compromised valve restores steady fluid delivery and ensures appropriate pressure line management.
Included Items
1 Water inlet valve. Required tools (verified): Star driver, needle-nose pliers.
