Use this guide to replace the inlet valve assembly in your Whirlpool WRS315SDHW Refrigerator.
The inlet valve assembly is an electrically-controlled mechanical valve that opens to supply water to the dispenser and icemaker. If your refrigerator isn't making ice or dispensing water properly, your inlet valve assembly might be broken.
Note: Some photos show the doors removed for clarity purposes. Removing them is not required and will not change the procedure.
