Works with Whirlpool Model: ET21LKXHW00 (top freezer)
The picture by "Buy-it-now-store" shows water valve Part#: 4318047 (which is exactly what I uninstalled from my Whirlpool fridge; see my pictures above or search for the video on youtube "Refrigerator Water Valve Repair Refrigerator Repair Help") but they sent me the Whirlpool 2315576 Valve-Inlet for Refrigerator.
Before getting upset I decided first to give it a try and... it worked. So, I didn't complain to the seller; their price was much lower ($18.21) than the Whirlpool's. It turned out to be a win-win situation for everybody.
Apparently Whirplool replaced some time in 2003 the old 4318047 with newer 2315576 because along with the installation instructions for the 4318047 (5/98) there was an insert from the company for the "Quick-Connect Single Water Valve" (6/03) explaining what to do in case I received either valve. I also got a small bag of add ons for the old valve. So, the two...
wrong description
This looks to be a good quality replacement part, however the description makes it sound like it will work if you have ice and water in the door "ice maker and water valve" it only has one valve so it did not work for what I needed. It was cheap though so I was only out $10.00. The company I got it from said I could get a refund but it would cost $10.00 in shipping to return it, so I just kept it and put it in my parts bin in my garage, maybe my neighbor will need one someday.
Good Replacement
Seems equal to the OEM original in every way.
The form and fit are the same as the one it replaces.
