There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I bought this to replace a valve in a 14-yr-old Frigidaire Pro Series side by side refrigerator. I looked over the half-dozen or so valves on Amazon and chose this one because it was middle-priced and had only a handful of negative reviews. But I was still apprehensive as the negative reviews mentioned a non-genuine part and leaking connectors. I'm happy to say that my experience was all positive.
The item came in an Electrolux box with the Frigidaire logo (as well as others) on it and looks identical to the one it is replacing, so it appears to be a genuine OEM part.
One of my concerns was that I would replace the valve only to find it is not the problem at all, or that maybe the replacement was a dud, and I would have no way of knowing which. I was pleased to see that the box included a detailed diagnostic sheet with a thorough step-by step procedure for determining if the existing valve is indeed faulty and needs replacing. As a side benefit, the procedures gave me a thorough understanding of exactly how the refrigerator water system works. I followed the procedure and, sure enough, the old valve was bad.
Installation was a snap. No special tools needed and the electrical and water connections are all color-coded. Unlike with other reviewers, my old valve already had the push-in connectors, so I did not even need to trim the tubes. They inserted smoothly and snuggly into the new connectors. I reconnected the water supply and tested all of the functions and they worked perfectly. And there are absolutely NO LEAKS anywhere.
Maybe some of the negative reviewers got production lemons or didn't install correctly, but mine works like a charm. Next hurdle will be the test of time as some reviewers reported theirs stopped working after only a few weeks. But for now, I couldn't be happier with the outcome. I would recommend this one to anyone.
After many years, our fridge's water dispenser had begun to delay several seconds before water would begin to flow. This same delayed-flow issue meant that our ice maker had also stopped working; all the automated processes within the ice machine depend upon water flowing readily, and within an expected timeframe. The old solenoid's delay of 5 or more seconds resulted in no water making it into the ice tray before the ice maker had shut off the water line and moved on to the next step in its process.
When swapping out parts, it was surprisingly straightforward. All of the electrical components, and most of the water lines between the fridge and solenoid valve are color coordinated. Brown, yellow, green, and white.
I've also made a determination to go back behind my fridge once or twice a year to gently vacuum off the accumulated dust from the refrigerator coils. My understanding is this will improve efficiency, and hopefully increase the life of the fridge and all its components.
Here's an important tip.
Watch a YouTube video and every one will suggest taking photos of the electrical and hose connections before proceeding. This is correct but photos are not good enough. When the tubes are still connected to the old module it will be difficult to take a photo of all the connections. If you remove 2 of the easier to reach tubes you can immediately connect them to the new module prior to installing it. For the remaining 2 tubes I studied my photos over and over and could not decide which of those 2 tubes when into which port. I got it right but I could have gotten it backwards.
Here's the tip that I wish I had thought of. Using a magic marker on the old valve module, put a number or letter on each of the 4 blue barrels and their corresponding tubes. Then write the same numbers or letters on the new solenoid barrels. The rest should be obvious.
Have fun.
