It's also listed as 38784409. It's a small part, but one that matters when you're replacing the valve or tracking down a leak at the back of the machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the inlet valve grommet matters\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe inlet valve is where the water hoses connect. The grommet cushions and seals the valve where it mounts to the cabinet, holding it steady and absorbing vibration as the solenoids click open and shut. When it hardens, splits or goes missing, the valve can rattle, sit crooked and strain the hose connections. Water may also track along the valve body and drip inside the machine. If you're fitting a new inlet valve, it's a good time to fit a fresh grommet too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Electrolux group part 4055729422\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlso listed as 38784409\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrommet for the water inlet valve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eListed for the Simpson SWT8043\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitting the grommet\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurn off the taps, unplug the washer and disconnect the inlet hoses.
