This Part Fixes These Problems

Washer Won't Fill

Washer drum does not fill with water at the start of a cycle or fills extremely slowly, leaving clothes unwashed.

No Hot or No Cold Water

Only one temperature of water enters the tub — one solenoid coil has failed internally, preventing proper wash/rinse temperatures.

Continuous Overfill

Washer keeps filling even with the lid closed or between cycles because the valve diaphragm is stuck open and cannot close.

Water Leaking at Back

Water drips or streams from the valve body or inlet hose connection points due to a cracked valve housing or failed internal seal.

Cycle Stops Mid-Wash

Washer pauses or throws an error code mid-cycle because the control board detects insufficient water flow caused by a partially failed valve or clogged inlet screen.

Product Description

Why Choose Our W10869800 Washer Water Inlet Valve?

🔧
Built to OEM Specifications Hot & cold dual-solenoid inlet valve with vacuum break assembly. Rated 110/120V, 60Hz. Dimensions approx. 9-1/4"L × 6-1/4"W × 2"H — exact match to original W10869800 / W11038689 geometry.
✅
OEM Superseded — Current Fit Whirlpool superseded W10869800 with W11038689. Our part is manufactured to the updated specification, so you get the latest design revision without paying OEM prices.
🏷️
Wide Brand Compatibility One part covers Whirlpool, Maytag, Amana, Kenmore, Crosley, and Inglis top-load washers — including popular WTW, MVWC, NTW, ITW, ATW, CAW, and 110-series models.
💧
Controls Water Flow Precisely The valve opens and closes on command from the control board, allowing the correct volume of hot or cold water to enter at each stage of the wash cycle — fill, rinse, and spin-rinse.
🛡️
Durable Plastic/Metal Construction Valve body uses reinforced plastic ports and metal solenoid coils tested under repeated open/close cycles. Designed to resist cracking from normal household water pressure.
⚡
Plug-and-Play Installation Direct connector match to OEM wiring harness on listed models. No splicing, no adapters. Average install time is 20–35 minutes with basic hand tools.

💡 Pro Tip: Is Your Water Inlet Valve Failing?

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

⚠️ Washer won't fill with water or fills very slowly

⚠️ Only cold or only hot water enters — but not both

⚠️ Washer overfills continuously even when lid is closed

⚠️ Water leaks from the back of the washer near the inlet hose connections

🔍 Quick test: Unplug the washer, disconnect the inlet hoses, and use a multimeter to test solenoid continuity (should read 200–500 Ω). No continuity = valve is bad. Also check the inlet screens for mineral scale — clogged screens mimic a failed valve.

Questions & Answers

Is W10869800 discontinued? What is the current replacement part number?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Mar 15, 2024
Yes, Whirlpool has superseded part number W10869800 with W11038689. Our aftermarket valve is manufactured to the updated W11038689 specification, so it is a direct, current-design replacement. You do not need to search for the old number separately.
Will this valve fit my Maytag MVWC565FW washer?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Nov 20, 2023
Yes. The MVWC565FW0, MVWC565FW1, MVWC565FW2, and MVWC565FW3 are all listed as confirmed compatible models. This is a hot/cold dual-solenoid valve that is the correct replacement for those Maytag top-load washers.
My Kenmore washer model starts with 110 — will this part work?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jan 8, 2025
Many Kenmore 110-series top-load washers are manufactured by Whirlpool and use this same valve. Confirmed Kenmore models include 11020362812, 11022352512, 11025122811, and 11025132412. Please verify your full model number against the compatibility list before ordering.
My washer fills with cold water only — does this mean the hot solenoid on the valve is bad?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jul 22, 2024
That is the most likely cause. The water inlet valve contains two independent solenoid coils — one for hot and one for cold. If only one temperature fills, the corresponding solenoid coil has likely failed open-circuit. You can confirm with a multimeter: a healthy coil reads approximately 200–500 Ω. An open-circuit (infinite) reading confirms a failed coil and means the valve needs replacement.
How long does this repair typically take, and do I need special tools?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Feb 10, 2026
Most DIYers complete this repair in 20–35 minutes. You only need a Phillips screwdriver, flat-head screwdriver, and needle-nose pliers. No soldering or special appliance tools are required. Be sure to unplug the washer and shut off the water supply before starting. A multimeter is useful for diagnosing the valve before purchasing but is not needed for installation.

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