The primary purpose of a water inlet valve is to serve as an electronically controlled gatekeeper that regulates the intake of water from your home’s pressurized plumbing supply line into an appliance like a washing machine or dishwasher. Controlled by the main computer control board or timer, the valve's internal electromechanical solenoids open and close on command to let exact amounts of hot or cold water enter the tub during specific stages of a wash cycle. Without a functioning water inlet valve, the machine cannot fill, rinse, or execute cleaning programs properly. You can verify its operation by observing water entering the tub during the initial cycle fill phase.
