Mounted on the back of the refrigerator, the valve opens and closes on demand to deliver water at the correct volume and timing required by the appliance. A failed inlet valve can cause slow fill, no water flow, or active leaks at the connection points. This kit provides an OEM-style replacement that restores proper water supply to both the dispenser and ice maker circuits. Installation is typically performed by an appliance technician or experienced service professional.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis valve kit is suited for residential refrigerators equipped with an ice maker, water dispenser, or both. It mounts to the rear of the unit at the water supply connection point. When the original valve fails or shows signs of leaking or restricted flow, swapping in this replacement kit brings the water delivery system back to normal operating condition without modifying the existing water line or dispenser tubing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControls water flow to both the ice maker and the water dispenser\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounts to the rear of the refrigerator at the supply inlet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRestores accurate water delivery volume and timing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAddresses symptoms including slow fill, no flow, and leaks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOEM-style replacement for straightforward swap-out service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement water inlet valve kit for compatible Whirlpool refrigerators equipped with an ice maker and water dispenser.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eShut off the household water supply and unplug the refrigerator before beginning service. An appliance technician should confirm the valve is the source of the fault before replacement, as inlet valve symptoms can overlap with clogged supply lines or low household water pressure. Standard hand tools are sufficient for removal and reinstallation. Verify the water supply line connection is secure and leak-free before returning the unit to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Refrigerator ice maker and water dispenser\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMount Location\u003c\/strong\u003e: Rear of refrigerator\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: WHIRLPOOL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: w10408179vp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"WHIRLPOOL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51161655804210,"sku":"W10408179VP","price":66.52,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/306255907.gif?v=1778878267","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/whirlpool-w10408179vp-water-inlet-valve-kit","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
