This Part Fixes These Problems

Washer Not Filling with Water

Solenoid coils fail to open, blocking water from entering the tub at the start of a cycle. Replacing the inlet valve restores normal fill.

Slow or Intermittent Water Fill

Mineral deposits and debris partially block the valve ports, causing sluggish or inconsistent water entry. A new valve eliminates the restriction.

Water Leaking from Back of Washer

Cracked valve body, degraded O-ring seals, or faulty solenoid connections cause water to pool behind the machine. Valve replacement stops the leak.

Wrong Water Temperature

One solenoid coil fails, allowing only hot or only cold water to enter regardless of the selected cycle setting. A new dual-solenoid valve corrects temperature control.

Water Continuously Filling / Overfilling

A stuck-open solenoid allows water to trickle or flood into the tub even when the washer is off. Replacing the valve stops uncontrolled water flow.

🔧
Built to OEM SpecificationsRated 120V / 50-60Hz — identical electrical specs to original GE WH13X24386 / WH13X26535. Dual solenoid coils open precisely for hot and cold water based on selected wash temperature and cycle.
💧

🏷️
Wide Brand CompatibilityFits GE, Hotpoint, RCA, and select Kenmore top-load washing machines across GTW460, GTW465, GTW485, GTW490, GTW500, GTW525, GTW540, and VTW525 model series.
🛡️
Durable, Clog-Resistant ConstructionMade from high-grade reinforced polymer and precision-wound solenoids. Resists mineral deposit buildup that causes premature OEM valve failure, delivering long-term reliable performance.
💰
Save vs. OEM PricingOEM replacement (WH13X26535) retails for $32+ at major parts suppliers. Our aftermarket valve delivers the same performance at a fraction of the cost — no service call required.

💡 Pro Tip: How to Know Your Water Inlet Valve Has Failed

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

⚠️ Washer does not fill with water at the start of a cycle

⚠️ Water enters the tub very slowly or intermittently

⚠️ Water leaks around the back of the machine near the valve area

⚠️ Wrong water temperature — only hot or only cold water fills regardless of cycle setting

🔍 To confirm: Use a multimeter to test solenoid coil resistance (should read 200–500Ω each). Zero resistance or open circuit = valve has failed. Also visually inspect for mineral scaling or cracked valve body. Never attempt to clean a clogged inlet valve — replacement is always recommended.

Questions & Answers

Is WH13X24386 the same as WH13X26535?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Mar 15, 2024
Yes. WH13X24386 is the original GE part number that was superseded by WH13X26535. Both part numbers refer to the same Water Inlet Valve Assembly function. Our replacement is cross-compatible with both numbers and all listed cross-reference part numbers including AP6892695, WH13X24392, 4931303, PS12726769, and EAP12726769.
Will this valve fit my GE GTW490ACJ7WW washer?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Nov 20, 2023
Yes, the GTW490ACJ7WW is a confirmed compatible model for WH13X24386 / WH13X26535. Please cross-check your model number against our full compatibility list. If your exact variant is not listed, contact us with your full model number and we will confirm fitment before you order.
My washer fills very slowly — will replacing the inlet valve fix this?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jan 8, 2025
Slow filling is one of the most common symptoms of a failing water inlet valve. Mineral deposits and debris can partially block the valve screens and restrict solenoid movement. Before replacing, also check that your home water pressure is adequate (20–100 PSI) and that the inlet hose screens are not clogged. If pressure is fine but filling is still slow, replacing the inlet valve is the recommended fix.
Does this part include the thermistor or only the valve body?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jul 22, 2024
This replacement includes only the Water Inlet Valve Assembly body with dual solenoid coils — the thermistor is not included. If your original valve has a thermistor and gasket installed in front of the solenoids, you will need to transfer it from your old valve to the new one. We recommend replacing the thermistor O-ring at the same time since it is known to degrade and cause leaks.
Is this compatible with Hotpoint and RCA washers too?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Feb 10, 2026
Yes. The WH13X24386 / WH13X26535 water inlet valve is also compatible with Hotpoint and RCA branded washing machines that share GE's top-load platform, as well as select Kenmore models. Please verify your full model number before purchasing, as Kenmore compatibility varies by year and configuration.
