Our model WM2233HW LG front loading washing machine was constantly filling up with water, even after it stopped running or was sitting unused. Opened door and it was so high it all came flooding out. Some error code FoE maybe, I dont recall.A little googling and video it was likely inlet valves. Ordered this for hot inlet.Took off a few screws on back top, slid the top of washer toward back to get out from the front lip to take it off. You can see how corroded they were.Disconnect connectors (plastic clear things), disconnect hose (keep track order). Unscrew two screws, put new one in done.Replaced the hot one it to. Reversed order put everything back together.Works great now, no flooding.

We were quoted about $600 to replace this valve from a technician and were debating to buy a new one. We were very happy to save so much money using this one. It was easy to install and took us a total of 10-15 minutes. We were able to learn how to remove and install it from a YouTube video.

Was a drop in replacement for original 3 piece cold water valve that started leaking from the top of the valve body after just over 10 years of ownership. Happy with this replacement.

When we found water trickling out from underneath our washer, we thought we were in for an expensive repair. YouTube sleuthing wasn't much help, but did inspire me to open the top cover. Inside, I found the old inlet valve rusted and leaking. This part was an exact replacement and only required a few simple tools to install. After months of use, it's still working perfectly.

The part was easy to install without having to call a service tech. It is great that parts are available when so many times a simple problem like this can't be fixed because appliance companies don't have parts and you would have to replace the washer for lack of an simple part. Our washer is working like new.

Bought this for my LG WM2277H* washer. Basically, my wife noticed that after a wash the liquid detergent was still in the compartment. Also washes were taking alot longer than normal. We primarily wash our clothes in cold and rarely do any washes in hot. After a ton of troubleshooting and Googling, I finally narrowed my problem to low or no cold water flow. I confirmed this when I pulled the detergent compartment and watched the wash cycle. This led me to suspect the inlet valve. Found this part here for a third of the cost. The fix was a breeze and I was done in about 30-40 mins. Washer was back up and was a hero for my wife. The part was high quality and OEM. It was a perfect fit. THANKS!

Like others here, we were seeing water leakage from the bottom right side of our Kenmore Elite washing machine that was made by LG. We couldn't tell exactly where it was coming from but eventually we were shown a FE error, which indicates the washing machine was encountering a fill error. When these valves go out, they can go out open or closed, so be very careful that you do not have an open valve that filled the drum until the washer realized what was happening and threw the error code. In this instance, which is what happened for us, if you open the door, it will send water flying everywhere and it's A LOT of water. Use the drain hose down at the bottom left of the front panel to drain the washer so this isn't a concern. In our case, we drained almost 11 one gallon buckets from ours before it was empty.I then turned off the water and disconnected the fill hoses, draining them into a bucket before removing four screws from the back of the top panel. The panel then slides right off with easy access to the inlet valves. While this cold inlet valve was what was leaking, both it and then hot water inlet valve were rusted out so we replaced both at the same time. Before beginning, I used a Sharpie to mark each hose and connector for the valves and then took a photo (attached). I find this helps with making sure everything is connected correctly after the replacement.I then placed a container on top of the drum for any water that might drain out of the hoses and began removing hoses by squeezing the hose clamps with a pair of pliers and placing the hose in the bowl. Once all were removed, I removed two screws on each valve and they came loose from the cabinet. I wrapped the new valves with some pipe dope and then slid them through the cabinet opening and secured them with the two screws.Now that the new valves were in, I reconnected the black hoses to each of the inlet valves and then double-checked the numbers for good measure. The fill hoses are next but it's important to note that its easy to damage a valve by overtightening so hand tighten and then use a pair of slip-joint pliers to tighten it another 2/3 of a turn or so. Once this was done, I turned the water back on to each and started a new cycle, leaving the top panel off for the first load to make sure there were no leaks.All in all, a very easy and affordable repair but at less than four years since they were installed, I feel the washer has had problems too quickly.
