U line ice maker water solenoid valve

The electrical component that activates a valve to allow water to flow into the ice making area is called the solenoid. Coils that form the solenoid can become damaged over time, causing the icemaker to act erratically or produce no ice at all.

The Water Inlet Valve is an electro-mechanical valve that opens to supply water to either the icemaker or water dispenser. If one of the solenoids inside the water valve is defective, it might not allow water to flow to the icemaker unit.
