Samsung Washer Cold Water Inlet Valve Parts — Models & Compatibility

Your Samsung washer won't fill, or it's filling way too slowly. The cold water inlet valve controls water flow into your machine, and when it fails, you're looking at incomplete cycles or no wash at all. This hub covers the DC62-00311F replacement valve that fits Samsung top-load washers across the WA40J, WA44A, WA45M, and WA45N series.

Is This the Right Part for Your Model?

Check your washer's model number on the label inside the door frame or on the back panel. This DC62-00311F valve (also replaces AP5966624, PS11719654, 3992244, and EAP11719654) fits specific Samsung top-load models manufactured between 2015-2021. The valve threads directly onto your washer's water inlet port — if your model number matches the list below, you've got the right part.

About This Replacement Part

The cold water inlet valve is an electrically-controlled solenoid that opens when your washer needs water during the fill cycle. It connects to your home's cold water supply line and allows water to enter the tub based on electronic signals from the control board. When this valve fails, you'll notice your washer not filling at all, filling extremely slowly, or leaking from the inlet connection point. The valve contains internal screens that can clog with sediment, and the solenoid coils can burn out after years of use. This OEM-compatible replacement restores proper water flow and cycle timing. At $121.99, it's a straightforward repair that beats the cost of a service call or new washer.

Why This Valve Fails

Water inlet valves fail for a few common reasons. Hard water deposits and sediment can clog the internal screens, restricting flow even when the valve opens. The electrical solenoid coils can burn out from power surges or simply wear out after thousands of wash cycles. Physical damage to the valve body or threads can cause leaks at the connection point. If you're getting error codes related to water fill time or if your washer takes 15+ minutes just to start washing, the inlet valve is usually the culprit.

What You'll Need for Installation

This is a moderate DIY repair. You'll need to disconnect the water supply line (turn off the water first), remove the old valve from the back panel, disconnect the wire harness, and install the new valve with fresh connections. The entire job typically takes 30-45 minutes if you've got basic tools and aren't fighting rusted connections.
