Whirlpool Injector Valve WP216201 OEM Part

Rubber Injector Valve for Washer/Dryer Combo, Black

To prevent or address any leaks, it's essential to replace this component when necessary. The injector valve has a length of 2 inches and is sold individually.

While primarily intended for Whirlpool washing machines, this versatile valve is also compatible with models from Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. It is additionally suitable for select Sears-Kenmore and Ikea appliances. As an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) part, it provides dependable performance, specifically in regulating detergent distribution during cleaning cycles.

Located within the detergent dispenser drawer, the valve manages water flow at specified intervals to ensure the detergent dissolves fully and spreads uniformly throughout the laundry, optimizing cleaning outcomes.

Symptoms of a malfunctioning injector valve may include:

- Detergent residue left in the dispenser after washing.
- Premature or excessive sudsing causing overflow.
- Ineffective cleaning due to inadequate detergent release.
- Deposits or residue visibly accumulating near the valve.

The replacement injector nozzle can be identified by part number WP213015.
