LG Washer Valve Assembly, Inlet 5221EA2001C

Genuine LG water inlet valve assembly; retailer descriptions also identify it as a washer water inlet valve and float assembly.

Is This the Right Part?

Common Symptoms

• Washer will not fill
• Slow or partial filling
• Washer continues filling after the selected water level
• Water enters while the washer is off
• Leakage at or near the inlet valve
• No hot water or no cold water entering the washer

Check Before Replacing

• Confirm the household hot- and cold-water supply valves are fully open.
• Inspect the inlet hoses for kinks, damage, reversed connections, or restricted flow.
• With water supplies turned off, inspect the valve’s inlet screens and hose gaskets for visible sediment, damage, or leakage.
• Check that the electrical connectors at the valve are seated and free of visible damage.
• If qualified to perform electrical testing, test the valve solenoid according to the appliance service documentation; symptoms alone do not prove valve failure.
