    • Pull the rubber gasket off of the metal rod.

    • The valve will fall out of its hole onto the table. It can now be cleaned or replaced.

    • You may find it helpful to push up on the float valve from the other side of the lid while you remove the gasket.

Conclusion

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.

I received the replacement valve and pot. Now my insignia instapot won't hold pressure. It keeps seeping steam/spritz out of the float valve. I am ready to toss it in the trash. It worked bafore I replaced that stem. I should've kept it.

OK after much digging, I found the old valve and now it is pressurizing.
