I have to replace the water Dual inlet valve assembly (#AP4071513). Where is this located and are there any tricks to replacing it?

Thanks

This water valve is located in the back of the refrigerator. Follow the water line and you’ll find it. Be sure to unplug the unit before servicing and turn the water off.

P.S. What is wrong with the refrigerator?

Thank you for your answer. When you try and use the water lever it takes several seconds before the water comes out and it makes a electrical humming sound. It also seems to be getting worse. I changed the filter and it is still happening.

There are two water valves and it’s hard to say which is bad in such situation. The second water valve is located in the back of the refrigerator as well. It supplies water to the water filter.
