PLATE SOLENOID MOUNT

Part R28172 is associated with the Plate Solenoid Mount and is selected when the original part is no longer serviceable. It’s commonly ordered during repairs once the plate solenoid mount is identified as the root cause. Compare the failed plate solenoid mount to part R28172 and confirm mounting and connection style prior to installation. Because it regulates water or system flow depending on the application, faults here can create clear, repeatable symptoms. Common service complaints for the plate solenoid mount include no fill, overfill, and sticking open/closed. Because the plate solenoid mount influences how the unit runs, symptoms may worsen under normal load. Confirm the root cause first so the replacement actually solves the problem. Helpful checks for part R28172 include: verify coil energizing (if applicable); inspect for sticking or leakage. A confirmed swap to part R28172 helps reduce repeat downtime and recurring intermittent faults. After diagnosis, the last step is a correct replacement and post-repair test. Compare the old plate solenoid mount to part R28172, install with standard service practices, then verify with a test cycle. Replacing the confirmed failed plate solenoid mount with part R28172 often resolves the complaint and stabilizes operation. After the first test cycle, recheck hardware and connectors to confirm everything remains secure. Inspect related components so the new part isn’t exposed to the same stress that damaged the original. Document the symptom and the post-repair test result for future service history. Keep the removed part nearby for a quick side-by-side comparison during installation. If the unit has multiple revisions, confirm the exact configuration to avoid mismatched parts. Inspect related components so the new part isn’t exposed to the same stress that damaged the original.
