Easy repair as staff is very helpful!
I replaced the cold water inlet valve a few years ago and most recently, the hot water valve. My washer is a 2005 LG HE and they have always matched the correct part to my model. Repair was easy and all is working smoothly!

Water continued to fill into the drum slowly after the load was done.
Watched a you tube video and followed the instructions. Even had my 11 and 13 yo old help and do most of the work. Very easy to fix both hot and cold inlet at the same time. Didn't know which one was causing the problem so I decided to replace both.

Water was filling the tub when washer was not in use.
I followed the video and my repair went just like the expert showed on the video. The hardest part was pulling the washer away from the wall and getting enough elbow room to be able to work on the washer. I will definitely come back to this site for my next appliance repair.

Water leaking on the floor under the washer.
Unplug the washer! Turn off the HOT water valve. Remove the hot water hose at the connection on the back of the washer. Remove the two Phillips head screws holding the top of the washer. Slide the lid toward the rear until you feel it disengage, then lift it off, setting it aside.
Unplug the electrical connector on top of the hot water valve (just pulls off).using pliers compress the hose clamp, slide it away from the hot water valve and pull the hose off the valve fitting(it will have some water remaining so lift it up and secure it to the brace above the hoses).
Remove the two phillips head screws that hold the valve in place. Pull the valve toward the front of the washer to remove it and compare it to the new valve.
To install the new valve, reverse all steps insuring tight water hose clamp and electrical connection. Install hot water hose, plug it in and turn on water. Test run and check for leaks. Unplug it and reinstall top.

Replace leaky water valve
Very simple. Watched video.
Pulled the washer out to get behind it.
Turned off water supply, unplugged it.
Unscrewed the screwesholding the top in place, slid top back, lifted it off.
Used pliers to open the clamps holding the pipes to the valve - one at a time. And fitted the pipes to new valve, one at a time.
SOME WATER REMAINS IN THESE PIPES, SO PUT A TOWEL UNDERNEATH TO CATCH IT.
Removed the electrical connectors one at a time and fitted them to the new valve one at a time.
Did same to the hot valve - not leaking but decided to replace it before it did leak.
Reattached water supply hoses and electric plug.
Tested the washer cycle to make sure no leaks.
Put top back on and pushed washer back to wall.
Apart from the testing, the whole job took 25 minutes.
The parts arrived on Day 2 after the order.
VERY PLEASED WITH EVERYTHING!

w/d repeatedly fills with water during warm or hot loads
E. Z. hardest part (which isn't hard) was moving the appliance to reach the back, then putting the appliance back into place. the actual repair (swapping out valve) took less time than that to do.

Water was slowly filling up in washer tub, after I would wash clothes 2 or 3 days later there would be water standing in the washing machine.
I looked this problem up on YouTube like I do with everything, I saw a video from this site.. so I ordered what I needed from the website. The parts came in I unpluged the washer from the wall very important, I literally removed 6 Philips head screws and unclipped the wires from the parts and removed the hoses with the pliers, hoses have squeeze clamps. Put in New parts put hoses back on wiring back on and I was done.. it took me a total of maybe 10 minutes.. NO MORE WATER standing in the washer.. Thank you!! I would recommend you add a video for the Inlet Valve Assembly like you have for the hot inlet valve though...

My front load LG washer ,at the end of a cycle the water will start to run and won't stop until i turn the cold water valve to off pos.
For model number Wm0642hw
Hi Jim, Thank you for the email. This sounds like an issue with the Water In let valve. If the valve is stuck open and defective it will allow water to flow through after the cycle ends. Hope this helps!

Water start to fill up the soap despener with those short blast of water that fill the cup about 3 times and then it stops and water stops going in the cup.So the soap is still left in the dispenser. The tub still fill with water. I can hear it going in
For model number WM2455HW
Hi Gerry,
Thank you for your inquiry. There are some parts that you will need to check to see which one is causing the issue. You will need to check the pressure switch, the water inlet valve, the detergent box assembly and softener cap. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

What about the cold side. Our washer keeps filling when unplugged and will stop when you turn the cold side off. You don't have to touch the hot shut off. Yes I did check to make sure washer hoses were hooked up correctly.
For model number WM2487HRM
Hi Gary, Thank you for the question. It sounds like the water inlet valve is stuck open on the cold side and is letting water through. To fix this the Inlet Valve Assembly,PartSelect Number PS3527431 will need to be replaced.Hope this helps!

Is the install for hot and cold inlet valve the same install?
For model number WM2016CW
Hello Richard, Thank you for your inquiry. There are installation videos available for both parts on our website. It appears the installation process is similar for both, but since the cold water valve has different solenoids, we would recommend watching the videos for both. I have included the links. Hope this helps!

Hello, the water sometimes flows into the washing machine and sometimes doesn't. This happens with both hot water and cold water. When the water doesn't flow it gives the error message ie, which according to the manual means not enough water pressure. We have excellent water pressure. Why would it be working sometimes and not other? Is this most likely an electrical current issue or defective pump (or something else)?
For model number WM3431HW
Hi Dasha,
Thank you for your question. If you are having an issue with water flowing into the washer, the issue is likely with the water inlet valve and it will need to be replaced. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

No hot water filling machine. Confirmed water is hot from wall supply. Replaced hot water inlet valve. Still no hot water filling machine. What else could it be and what should i try next? Thanks.
For model number WM3670HVA
Hi Christine, thank you for your question. If you have replaced the valve and you are still having the issue, then it is likely your electronic control board that is the problem. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.

Based on the troubleshooting info, i think that my inlet valve on my cold water line is defective. Is it a seperate part for the cold and hot water valve, or will the same valve work on both?
For model number WM0642HW!
Hello Lisa, Thank you for the question. The PartSelect Number PS3527429 is for the Cold water and the PartSelect Number PS3527427 is the Hot water. Hope this helps!

My cold water continues to fill even when the machine is off. The hot water does not. Will the valve replacement for hot water fit on the cold water side too?
For model number WM2501HWA
Hello Michael, Thank you for the question. This sounds like the cold water side of the valve is defective so the valve will need to be replaced. Hope this helps!

No matter the setting machine only dispenses cold water. What part would you think needs replacing?
For model number kenmore 600
Hi Rob, thank you for your question. It is likely you would need to replace your water valve if you are not getting hot water to your appliance. If you would like to test the part the valve can be tested with a multi meter and should be reading between 500 - 1500 ohms of resistance. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.
