10011040 - Bosch Refrigerator Water Inlet Valve

This Bosch Refrigerator Water Inlet Valve (10011040) is a genuine Bosch part suitable for Bosch refrigerators. It's designed to control the flow from the supply line into your refrigerator for the ice maker and dispenser. This solenoid-operated valve opens electronically to allow water flow when the ice maker or dispenser activate, and remains closed otherwise to prevent any unwanted flooding. The valve is equipped with filters to protect it from debris and scaling, ensuring a smooth operation. Commonly referred to as a "water inlet valve," it specifically meters supply water flow on demand for ice and chilling purposes while safeguarding against uncontrolled water introduction into your appliance. Symptoms that this part may be failing include leaking or a valve that is stuck and no longer controls water flow as it should, which generally necessitates replacement to prevent water damage or inefficient refrigerator operation. Before purchasing this part for your refrigerator, be sure to check your device's model number to confirm compatibility.
