Part AJU73753117 Refrigerator Water Inlet Valve Assembly

Purpose

Controls the flow of water to the ice maker and water dispenser.

Details

The AJU73753117 is a genuine OEM water inlet valve assembly specifically designed for LG refrigerators. This assembly typically houses multiple solenoid-operated valves that open and close to supply water to the internal ice maker and the door-front water dispenser. It is an updated version of several previous valve designs, engineered for better pressure management and quieter operation. When the solenoids in this valve fail, you may experience no water at the dispenser, the ice maker failing to fill, or persistent leaking/dripping from the dispenser head. In some cases, a cracked valve body can lead to water pooling at the rear base of the refrigerator. Replacing this unit ensures reliable water delivery and prevents potential flood damage from a compromised valve housing.

Included Items

Complete water valve assembly with electrical solenoids; installation requires a Phillips head screwdriver and a 1/4-inch or 10mm nut driver. Note: You may need to trim your existing water lines for a fresh connection to the new push-to-connect fittings.
