It directly connects to 18mm solenoid valves, supporting 2-, 3-, and 4-way valve types to temporarily operate reversing valves in heat pumps. This tool enables quick fixes by mimicking solenoid coil activation, restoring cooling or heating without immediate part replacement. Lightweight and highly rated, it’s an essential emergency tool that prevents costly downtime and service delays. ## Description CPS Products TLMKC18 Solenoid Valve Magnet Tool, Original Version: Room Air Conditioners: desertcart.com: Industrial & Scientific Review: Works - As an hvac tech this has gotten multiple customers by till parts have came in Review: LIving in Coastal South Carolina using a heat pump for AC this item is a must - All heat pumps have a reversing valve which is operated by a solenoid coil. Most heat pumps energize this coil to move a pilot valve to align the heat pump for cooling operation, a few heat pumps deenergize this coil to align the heat pump for cooling operations. Most HVAC technicians don't carry replacement coils around as there's too many different styles, however most carry this magnet. Last week when our heat pump gave us heat when we were trying to cool our house this magnet gave us cooling back. IF you're comfortable taking the power off your heat pump and removing the fan off the top of the outside unit you can remove the reversing valve coil and install this magnet. You know you've got the magnet orientation correct when you hear the pilot valve click as you slide the magnet onto the reversing valve. If you don't hear a click reverse the magnet and try again. If you still don't hear a click you need a new reversing valve as the pilot valve isn't changing position - that requires removing the freon in your heat pump and cutting the reversing valve out of the unit, replacing the reversing valve, and recharging the heat pump - that's beyond my skill set. But we've had AC from our heat pump for a week now using this magnet as I wait for a new reversing valve coil. Without this magnet we'd have had to check ourselves and pets into a nearby hotel while we waited, 7 days now. If you're the kind of person who can safely do common repairs to your heat pump - capacitors, motor changes, starter relay changes, etc then you need this magnet. If you're the kind of person that depends on a service call you need this magnet - your service man may not have one or more likely has there's installed on someone else's heat pump that's waiting on parts. $30 for this magnet vs. 7 days and counting in a nearby hotel room? I'll take the magnet please. And if you're one of those few whose heat pump reversing valve is energized for heat you may want this magnet to ensure you'll have heat from your heat pump vs from just the electric strip heaters in your indoor unit. Rheem/Ruud heat pumps are this configuration. If you're going to install this magnet yourself read and follow all the precautions in the manuals that came with your HVAC unit. There are lethal voltages present (240 vac) and rotating equipment hazards (those beefy fan blades on the outside unit). Work safely and if you're not sure if you can, call a technician. ## Features - Solenoid Valve Troubleshooting Magnet, 18Mm - Direct Connect Or Pilot Operated 2-Way Solenoids - 3- Way Reclaim Valves - 4-Way Reversing Valves ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B009M9UIHU | | Best Sellers Rank | #37,553 in Industrial & Scientific ( See Top 100 in Industrial & Scientific ) #27 in Solenoid Valves | | Brand | CPS | | Brand Name | CPS | | Connector Type | Barb | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 893 Reviews | | Exterior Finish | Abs,Plastic | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00750377502965 | | Included Components | Troubleshooting Magnet | | Inlet Connection Size | 18 Millimeters | | Inlet Connection Type | Barb | | Item Dimensions | 1 x 1 x 1 inches | | Item Weight | 0.1 Pounds | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 1 x 1 x 1 inches | | Manufacturer | CPS | | Manufacturer Part Number | CPS - TLMKC18 | | Material | Plastic | | Material Type | Plastic | | Model Number | CPS - TLMKC18 | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Number of Ports | 4 | | Outlet Connection Size | 18 Millimeters | | Size | 1 | | Smart Home Compatibility | Not Smart Home Compatible | | UPC | 750377502965 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Valve Type | solenoid valve | ## Product Details - **Brand:** CPS - **Exterior Finish:** Abs,Plastic - **Global Trade Identification Number:** 00750377502965 - **Inlet Connection Size:** 18 Millimeters - **Inlet Connection Type:** Barb - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 1 x 1 x 1 inches - **Material:** Plastic - **Number of Ports:** 4 - **Outlet Connection Size:** 18 Millimeters - **Smart Home Compatibility:** Not Smart Home Compatible ## Images ![Products TLMKC18 Solenoid Valve Magnet Tool, Original Version - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51NrQGs+IwL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Can this be used on electronic expansion valves to open to flow nitrogen when brazing on the system?** A: No, I tried this on a Daikin EEV and it did not open the valve. Rotating a conventional magnet around the valve did open it. Former NATE certified HVAC mechanic **Q: Will this work on the EEV's to open them when brazing on a system?** A: No, for EEV's it is best to use an EEV magnet to open/close those valves. There are tricks, but this type of magnet will not work for this purpose. **Q: Will this fit on the larger MKC2 solenoids?** A: Yes it will! **Q: How many magnets come with the order?** A: One magnet. That’s just a picture showing what it looks like. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works *by A***R on June 18, 2026* As an hvac tech this has gotten multiple customers by till parts have came in ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ LIving in Coastal South Carolina using a heat pump for AC this item is a must *by A***C on August 13, 2022* All heat pumps have a reversing valve which is operated by a solenoid coil.

Time saver for troubleshooting, evacuation, etc. It's very well made and seems durable. The only downside is purchase price. I can't see that the cost to make this is more than a dollar or two. $33 is too much. ## Frequently Bought Together - CPS Products TLMKC18 Solenoid Valve Magnet Tool, Original Version - Rotation Tester and AC Detector for Circulating Pumps etc - Solenoid Tester, Solenoid Magnet Tool to Detects Ac Fields, and Rotation Tester for Circulating Pumps --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/55233527-products-tlmkc18-solenoid-valve-magnet-tool-original-version](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/55233527-products-tlmkc18-solenoid-valve-magnet-tool-original-version) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-07-26*
