This Part Fixes These Problems

No Ice Production

Ice maker stops making ice or produces only very small, thin, or misshapen cubes due to insufficient water supply caused by a failed solenoid or clogged inlet screen.

No Water from Dispenser

Door water dispenser delivers only a trickle or completely stops dispensing water when the solenoid coil burns out or mineral deposits block internal flow passages.

Water Leaking from Refrigerator

Continuous water leaking from the back or bottom of the refrigerator caused by a cracked valve body, worn internal seals, or a solenoid stuck in the open position.

Valve Buzzes But No Water

Audible clicking or buzzing sound from the back of the refrigerator when water is requested, but no water flows — indicating the solenoid energizes but the plunger fails to open due to internal debris or coil failure.

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

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

⚠️ Ice maker not producing ice, or producing only small or thin cubes

⚠️ Water dispenser delivers only a trickle or stops working entirely

⚠️ Water leaking from the back or bottom of the refrigerator

⚠️ Valve buzzes or clicks when commanded but no water flows

🔍 Diagnostic Tip: Set your multimeter to Rx100 and test solenoid coil resistance across each terminal pair. A reading outside 200–500 Ω (open circuit or near zero) confirms a failed solenoid. Also inspect the inlet mesh screen for mineral deposits — a clogged screen can mimic a bad valve. Turn off the household water supply and unplug the refrigerator before any testing or replacement.

Questions & Answers

Will this valve work with my Kenmore 795 series refrigerator?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Mar 15, 2024
Yes. This replacement water inlet valve is compatible with LG-manufactured Kenmore 795 series refrigerators, including popular models such as 795.73055410 and 795.77564600. Always verify your full model number before ordering to confirm compatibility.
My new valve has a different connector configuration than the original. Is this normal?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Nov 20, 2023
Yes, this is expected. LG has redesigned the valve over several production runs. The updated single-valve body consolidates dual solenoids internally. If your original valve has a different connector layout, trace the valve harness up to the main harness and plug the new valve in directly. The red and blue plugs control the solenoids; a black wire (if present) is a ground or diagnostic line and can be left unconnected on models that do not use it.
How do I know if the water inlet valve is defective and not another component?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jan 8, 2025
Test the solenoid coils with a multimeter set to Rx100. A healthy solenoid will read approximately 200–500 Ω. An open circuit (infinite reading) or near-zero reading indicates a failed coil. Also check the inlet mesh screen for mineral blockage. If the ice maker and dispenser both fail simultaneously, the inlet valve is the most likely common cause. If only the ice maker fails, also inspect the ice maker assembly itself.
Does this valve include the wiring harness, or do I need to purchase it separately?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jul 22, 2024
This replacement valve assembly comes with a permanently attached wiring harness and connector pre-installed, so no additional wiring accessories are required. Simply unplug the old harness connectors and plug in the new ones during installation.
After installing the new valve, water is leaking from the tubing connection. What should I check?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Feb 10, 2026
This is usually caused by old, stiff water tubing that no longer seats properly into the push-in fitting. Ensure you push the tubing firmly into the fitting until you feel a positive click. If the tubing is more than 5–6 years old and has become rigid, trim 1/4 inch from the end to expose a fresh, clean edge before reinserting. Do not trim more than 1/2 inch or you may lose enough slack to complete the connection. Alternatively, replace the affected section of tubing with new 5/16-inch food-grade tubing available at hardware stores.
