Testing the 3-Way Valve
The valve returns to “home” at the end of
every freezer defrost cycle and whenever the
refrigerator is reconnected to power.
To test the valve, disconnect the refrigerator from
power for at least 10 seconds, place a fi nger on
top of the valve and reconnect power.
The main control overdrives the valve to the
“home” position.
You should be able to feel the valve move as it
returns to the home position .
If movement is present, the main board and valve
coil are operating correctly.
Replacing the 3-Way Valve
Parts Needed:
3-Way Valve (part # WR57X10053)
Thermal Paste (part # WX5X8927)
Drier Assembly (part # WR86X93)
Process valve (part # WJ56X61)
When replacing a 3-way valve, note the black
mark on the freezer outlet tube. Make certain to
mark the freezer capillary by placing a piece of
tape on the capillary, 6-8 inches from the valve.
This will aid in installing the capillaries in the
correct outlet tubes.
