12016549 Genuine 2 Way Valve for Bosch, Siemens, Neff Appliances, BSH Two Way Valve Replacement Part

12016549 is a genuine 2 way valve from BSH, the maker of Bosch, Siemens and Neff appliances. Our record for this part doesn't name the appliance it comes from, and valves with two flow paths turn up in more than one type of appliance, so the part number is the thing to go by. Check it against the parts list for your model, or against any number printed on the old valve.

What a two way valve does

A two way valve controls flow along two separate paths. Some open one outlet or the other, while others let flow through or shut it off, and most are switched by a solenoid coil from the control board. When a valve like this fails, the appliance may not fill, may keep filling, or may drip, and the fault often shows up as an error code. Depending on the appliance, the symptom could also be one section not getting the water or cooling it needs. A burnt out coil or a cracked valve body are typical causes.

Checking and fitting the valve

Turn the appliance off and unplug it, and shut off the water supply if the valve carries water. Photograph the hoses or pipes and the wiring before you disconnect anything, so each connection goes back to the same place. A multimeter check across the coil terminals can show whether the old coil has failed. If the valve is part of a sealed refrigeration system, it must be fitted by a licensed refrigeration technician.
