Inleiding
Use this guide to replace one or both inlet valve assemblies in your LG front load washing machine.
The inlet valves control the flow of hot and cold water into the washer. If your washer doesn't fill with water and your water supply is fine, you may need to replace these valves.
Note: this guide only shows replacing the cold water assembly. The hot water assembly is adjacent to the cold water, and the procedure is identical.
This guide will work for most LG front load washing machines. This guide is written with a model WM3050CW washer. If you have a different model, you may encounter some minor disassembly differences, but the overall repair process will be the same.
