LG 5221ER1003A Genuine OEM Water Inlet Valve Assembly for LG Washing Machines

When I saw water leaking out from under my LG washing machine, I was riddled with anxiety. Yet another costly repair in an unending series of issues related to home ownership. But instead of immediately calling the repair guy and spending hundreds of dollars on a repair, I googled around, opened up the top of the machine and saw that this is an insanely common issue with these front load LG washers (LG WM3370HWA). I watched about 10 youtube videos on replacing this part and found it here on Amazon for $26. I ordered it, it came early the next morning, I braced myself and started my attempt to repair (sure that I would screw it up). Incredibly, I was able to remove and replace the part and put everything back together in under 30 minutes! I saved a ton of money, accomplished something, and gave myself a nice little boost of confidence! If you can use a screw driver and have enough strength to move the washing machine away from the wall, you too can do this! My machine is running great and the leak is gone! Highly recommend you try this before hiring a repairman or buying a new machine.

VERY economical buy and superior fit into our LG TROMM washer unit. This was a refresh of the module on a 18 year old unit. It's best to replace hot AND cold while you're in the machine. Works great.

Working just fine

Fixed my LG that was (original part) leaking. Looks authentic (it's Amazon...so that's a problem) and installed very easily.

This Item fit my washing machine perfectly, it was so easy to install. Very affordable. Great Quality, No leakage, just a perfect fit.

I bought this to replace a part on a family member's washing machine. Perfect replacement.

I noticed our washing machine was continuously filling with water and then draining. This process went on for hours before I noticed. When I went to the machine it had the error code "FE" (overflow error) on it. I turned it off, drained it, reset it, and tried to run the cycle again. It began doing the same thing, but this time it gave me the error code "FI" (Inlet error - not filling up with enough water). Did some quick research and found the issue was likely the cold water inlet valve was shot.I had the same exact, or very similar issue 5 years ago, and I bought a replacement cold water inlet value. I bought the machine in 2012, so it seems this part has a maximum lifespan of about 5-7 years. I'm on my 3rd one. This is why I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5, because they don't seem to last too long.Fortunately, it is a very easy fix, and relatively inexpensive as I'm sure an appliance repairman would have charged us hundreds of dollars to fix this.

Fit our front load LG washer perfectly and was an easy install!
