It controls the water coming in from the taps on LG washing machines. Getting the voltage right matters, as a 240V valve won't work on a 12V control and the reverse is also true. No model list is on file, so compare AJU72912201 and the number of outlets with your old valve before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eLG washer not filling? Check the inlet valve\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe control board energises each solenoid on the inlet valve to open it, letting tap water flow to the detergent dispenser or straight into the tub. When a coil fails or the valve sticks, the washer may sit idle without filling, show a water inlet error, fill very slowly, or let water trickle in even when switched off. A blocked screen filter in the valve inlet can give the same symptoms, so check and clean it first, along with the taps and hoses. A multimeter test across the coil terminals confirms whether a coil has failed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine LG part AJU72912201\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWater inlet valve with 12V DC operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor LG washing machines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel fit and outlet count not on file, compare with your old valve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVoltage\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12V DC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitting the new inlet valve\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurn off both taps, unplug the washer and unscrew the hoses at the back. Remove the top or rear cover to reach the valve. Label each wire and outlet hose against the valve body before taking anything off, as the outlets feed different parts of the dispenser.

A 240V valve won't open on that supply, and fitting the wrong valve can lead to further faults. Match the voltage and part number printed on your old valve before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44551353860174,"sku":"AJU72912201","price":103.46,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0768\/3489\/7998\/files\/aju72912201-genuine-lg-washing-machine-water-inlet-valve-12v-dc.jpg?v=1792026577","url":"https:\/\/partsshop.com.au\/products\/aju72912201-genuine-lg-washing-machine-water-inlet-valve-12v-dc","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
