This Part Fixes These Problems

Washer Won't Fill

Valve solenoids fail to open, blocking water entry entirely — washer sits empty and will not begin the wash cycle.

Slow or Partial Filling

Clogged inlet screens or weakened solenoids restrict water flow, causing the drum to fill too slowly or incompletely.

Washer Won't Stop Filling / Overfills

A stuck-open valve allows water to continuously enter the tub even when the control board sends no signal to fill.

No Hot Water or No Cold Water

One solenoid port fails while the other works, resulting in only a single water temperature being available regardless of cycle selection.

Leaking Around Valve / Hose Connections

Cracked valve body or degraded internal seals cause water to drip or spray at the supply hose fittings or from the valve housing itself.

Washer Won't Start

Some control boards sense an open or shorted inlet valve coil as a fault condition, preventing the cycle from initiating at all.

💡 Pro Tip: Is Your Water Inlet Valve the Problem?

Your part is likely the culprit if you notice any of the following:

⚠️ Washer will not fill with water or fills very slowly

⚠️ Washer overfills or will not stop filling

⚠️ No hot water or no cold water during wash cycle

⚠️ Water leaking from the inlet valve area or supply hose connections

Quick test: Turn off water supply and disconnect inlet hoses. Inspect the internal mesh screens for mineral scale buildup. If screens are clear but filling issues persist, use a multimeter to test solenoid coil resistance — a reading far outside spec confirms valve failure. Also verify home water pressure is at least 20 PSI before condemning the valve.

Questions & Answers

Does this valve include the thermistor and NTC sensor, or do I need to buy those separately?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Mar 12, 2024
Yes — part 134959340 includes the integrated thermistor and NTC/long-tube temperature sensor as part of the complete valve assembly. You do not need to purchase any additional sensors. This is one reason it is a dispenser-type inlet valve rather than a basic two-port fill valve.
My Kenmore front-load washer model 41741122310 shows error code E11 (slow fill). Will this valve fix it?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Nov 8, 2023
Model 41741122310 is on the confirmed compatibility list for 134959340. Error E11 on these Kenmore/Frigidaire-platform front-loaders commonly indicates insufficient water flow, which is often caused by a failing inlet valve or clogged inlet screens. First inspect and clean the mesh screens inside the hose connection ports. If screens are clear and home water pressure is above 20 PSI, replacing the inlet valve with 134959340 is the correct next step.
Is part 134959340 the same as AP4979374 and PS3490374?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jan 20, 2025
Yes. AP4979374 is the AppliancePartsPros cross-reference number and PS3490374 is the PartSelect cross-reference number — both refer to the identical Frigidaire OEM part 134959340. Additional superseded numbers include 1864071, AH3490374, EA3490374, and EAP3490374. Our replacement part is built to the same specifications as all of these.
The washer fills with cold water but not hot water. Is the inlet valve definitely the problem?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jul 30, 2024
When only one temperature is affected, one solenoid coil inside the dual-solenoid inlet valve has typically failed while the other remains functional. To confirm, set a multimeter to measure resistance across the hot-water solenoid terminals — a reading that is open (OL) or dramatically out of spec compared to the cold solenoid confirms coil failure. This is a classic single-solenoid failure mode on the 134959340 / FFFW-platform valves, and replacing the complete valve assembly (134959340) is the correct repair.
Do I need any special tools or plumbing experience to replace this valve myself?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Feb 5, 2026
No special tools or plumbing credentials are required. The repair needs only a Phillips screwdriver, flathead screwdriver, and needle-nose pliers. The entire job typically takes 20–35 minutes. The main precautions are: always unplug the washer before starting, shut off both water supply valves completely, and have towels ready for residual water in the hoses. Many customers with no prior appliance repair experience have completed this repair successfully following video instructions.

We typically respond within 1 business day. Include your appliance model number for the fastest answer.
