VALVE FLOAT

Symptoms can present as inconsistent flow, intermittent operation, abnormal noise, or a cycle that won’t complete normally—depending on where this part sits in the system. A solid approach is to confirm the symptom, then check mounting points and adjacent connections for contributing issues. For technicians troubleshooting inconsistent flow, Valve Float is a part that’s often inspected and replaced when failure is confirmed (part 02-4652-01). Consistent fill timing is critical to stable production. Water-control faults often show up as irregular ice formation or repeated fill symptoms. Use part number 02-4652-01 as the primary identifier, compare the replacement to the original, and install with careful alignment and routing. Replacing a worn part early can prevent secondary damage to nearby components. Clean the area around the repair so debris doesn’t interfere with fitment or sealing surfaces. Take a photo before disassembly so you can confirm orientation and fastener locations during reassembly.

Recheck fasteners after a short run-in period; vibration can loosen hardware if it isn’t seated correctly. Clean the area around the repair so debris doesn’t interfere with fitment or sealing surfaces. If the part interacts with water, do a leak check during the first run and again after a short operating period.
