This Part Fixes These Problems

Washer Won't Fill

Washer tub fails to fill properly or only a trickle of water enters — faulty valve solenoid or clogged inlet screen restricts water flow.

Overfilling / Won't Stop Filling

Washing machine continues to fill past the selected water level and may overflow — valve solenoid stuck in open position.

No Hot Water

Washer only fills with cold water even when hot or warm cycle is selected — the hot-water solenoid port of the triple valve has failed.

Leaking at Back of Machine

Water drips or streams from the rear of the washer around the inlet hose connections — cracked valve body or deteriorated internal seals.

Detergent / Softener Not Dispensed

Fabric softener or detergent remains in dispenser drawer after cycle — the dispenser circuit solenoid on the triple valve is not opening.

Inconsistent Water Levels

Water level varies unpredictably between cycles or the tub does not reach the selected fill level — partial blockage or intermittent solenoid failure.

Product Description

Why Choose Our WH13X23974 Triple Water Valve?

🔧
Built to OEM SpecificationsEngineered to match the original GE WH13X23974 triple water valve — same solenoid wiring harness, same inlet port dimensions, and same 3-circuit design for tub fill, detergent dispensing, and rinse water flow.
🚫
OEM Part is No Longer AvailableGE OEM WH13X23974 has been discontinued (NLA — No Longer Available) by the manufacturer. Our aftermarket replacement is the reliable solution to keep your washer running without hunting for hard-to-find OEM stock.
💧
Triple-Circuit Water ControlControls water flow into three separate circuits: main tub fill, detergent/softener dispenser, and rinse — ensuring precise water temperature mixing and correct fill levels throughout every wash cycle.
⚡
Solenoid Resistance 500–1500 OhmsEach solenoid coil is rated within the factory-specified 500–1500 ohm resistance range, ensuring proper electromagnetic activation at the correct cycle times for reliable open/close performance.
🏠
Wide Model CompatibilityFits 81+ GE, Hotpoint, RCA, and select Kenmore top-load washer models including GTW, GTWN, GCWP, GCWN, GHWP, GLWP, HTA, HTW, MTA, HTAP, HTWP, MTAP series and more.
⚖️
Lightweight & Easy SwapWeighing just 0.40 lbs, this direct-fit valve replaces the original with factory-matched connectors — no cutting, no splicing. Most DIYers complete installation in under 30 minutes with basic hand tools.

💡 Pro Tip: How to Diagnose a Failing Triple Water Valve

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

⚠️ Washer won't fill with hot water — only cold or lukewarm water enters even on hot cycle

⚠️ Washer overfills or won't stop filling — valve solenoid stuck open

⚠️ Washer fills very slowly — mineral buildup or internal screen blockage in valve ports

⚠️ Water leaks at back of machine or water remains in tub after cycle ends

🔬 Tech Tip: Test each solenoid coil with a multimeter — a reading outside 500–1500 ohms confirms a failed coil. Also check the inlet screens for mineral deposits before condemning the valve. Always shut off water supply and unplug the washer before beginning any repair.

Questions & Answers

Is the OEM GE WH13X23974 triple water valve still available from the manufacturer?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Nov 12, 2025
No — GE OEM part WH13X23974 is listed as NLA (No Longer Available) by the manufacturer and cannot be ordered directly from GE's supply chain. Our aftermarket replacement is engineered to the same 3-port solenoid specification and is a direct drop-in substitute.
How do I know if my triple water valve has failed and not the temperature switch?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Aug 3, 2024
First swap or test the temperature/rotary selector switch — if the washer still won't fill with hot water after replacing the switch, the hot-water solenoid port on the triple valve is likely failed. You can also test each solenoid coil with a multimeter: a reading outside 500–1500 ohms confirms a bad coil. If all coils read within spec, recheck the pressure switch and wiring harness.
Does this valve fit Hotpoint and Kenmore washers in addition to GE models?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Mar 19, 2024
Yes — WH13X23974 is compatible with GE, Hotpoint, RCA, and select Kenmore top-load washer models. The valve fits 81+ machines across GTW, GTWN, GCWP, GCWN, GHWP, GLWP, HTA, HTW, MTA, HTAP, and HTWP series. Always confirm your specific model number before ordering.
What part numbers does WH13X23974 replace?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Sep 7, 2023
This triple water valve directly replaces the following cross-reference part numbers: AP5985821, WH13X10048, 4283904, and PS11721803. All of these refer to the same original GE triple water inlet valve assembly.
How difficult is it to install this triple water valve, and what tools do I need?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jan 22, 2026
This is a DIY-friendly repair rated Easy difficulty. Most homeowners complete it in 20–35 minutes. You'll need a Phillips screwdriver, flathead screwdriver, needle-nose pliers, and a towel or small bucket to catch residual water. Remember to always unplug the washer and shut off the water supply valves before starting. The valve uses factory-matched connectors — no cutting or splicing required.
