3 Reviews

This dishwasher door gasket is attached to the bottom of the door, creating a strong seal between the tub and the outer edge of the door. This seal is prone to wear and tear due to its constant exposure to water, detergent, and food particles. If the gasket appears cracked, broken, or you notice a leak coming from the door, it will need to be replaced immediately. This gasket measures approximately 23 inches long. For this simple repair, no tools are necessary. Open the dishwasher door and remove the bottom rack. The gasket is located right along the bottom of the door, molded inside the channel. It is held in place in the groove across the bottom. Remove the old gasket by pulling it out with your hands. Take your new silicone gasket and line it up so the notch fits into the groove and slide it in place until it is secure. Reinstall the lower dishrack. We recommend leaving the door closed for a few hours to ensure the gasket is sealed tightly.

Dishwasher Tub Gasket - Gray The door gasket provides a watertight seal between the tub and the door, to keep water from leaking out of your dishwasher. If your dishwasher is leaking you may need to replace the door gasket. This gray door gasket is made of rubber and measures approximately 73 inches. For this repair, open the dishwasher door and remove the lower dish tray. Use your hands to pull out the old gasket. Clean the channel with a rag. Press the new gasket in place so it sits inside the groove in the door. Keep the door closed tightly for a few hours to ensure a strong seal is made.

Lower Spray Arm

This is a single lower spray arm found in dishwashers to spray water and detergent vigorously over the dishes. This spray arm is made of plastic, so can warp or crack with time. The holes in the spray arm can get clogged with debris, so it should be cleaned every so often. If it is beyond cleaning or damaged, it will need to be replaced. If the holes are clogged, this can sometimes mean there is a problem with the filter system, so it is a good idea to inspect this as well. For this repair, start by turning off the water supply to the dishwasher. Pull the lower rack out of the dishwasher and out of the way. Remove the lower wash arm. Using a flathead screwdriver, push the small locking tabs located on each side at the bottom of the spray arm. You should now be able to easily pull the spray arm out of the dishwasher. Align the new lower wash arm and push it down to secure it in place. Make sure it can spin freely and is not making contact with the heating element. Place the lower dishrack back into the appliance and close the door.

WHEEL & BUSHING ASS This is a single rack roller kit for your dishwasher. This kit comes with one axel/clip, and one wheel/roller. The kit is used for the lower dishrack, and allows your rack to move freely. You will need two kits for your upper and lower rack. We recommend replacing this part in pairs for an even wear. Lower rack roller and bracket assembly, grey. Wheel has been updated. If wheel pictured is not like old one, you may need to replace all wheels.

SPRAY ARM

If the Spray Arm in the bottom of your dishwasher becomes damaged or broken, it is important to replace it as soon as possible. Broken spray arms can result in your dishes not being cleaned properly, or cause water to leak onto your floors while running. Damage commonly occurs due to the spray arm melting; it can come loose during the wash cycle, and rests against the heating element. The plastic then melts, and the arm either does not fit back into place or the holes become distorted which causes water to spray in different directions. Replacing this part is easy, and tools should not be required. First remove the lower dish rack to access the spray arm, pull out the broken piece, and pop the new one into place. Once you put the dish rack back in, you will be ready to go! Spray arms for the upper rack are sold separately.

Water Inlet Valve - 120V 60Hz This is a genuine OEM replacement water inlet valve for your dishwasher. The water inlet valve supplies water to the dishwasher by opening and closing the solenoids attached to the valve, depending on the desired quantity of water. If your dishwasher is overfilling and leaking, or not filling with water at all, these may be signs that your valve is faulty. Other symptoms can include your dishes not cleaning properly, and the dishwasher not draining. You can check the inlet valve for continuity with a multimeter. It should show a reading between 500 - 1500 ohms if the valve is working and will read infinity if it is faulty. Another test is to open the dishwasher door while it is filling. If the tub continues to fill with water when the door is opened, the water inlet valve is defective and should be replaced.

Filter Base Located at the bottom of the dishwasher, this filter keep large particles of food and foreign objects away from the pump.

Dishwasher Drain Hose The drain hose connects to the pump located below the lower spray arm. It aids in proper dishwasher drainage. Size: 7.5 feet long

Dishwasher Filter This filter is for dishwashers. The filter removes food particles and debris from the water to prevent the drain from clogging. Follow the instructions in the manual when installing this part.

Heating Element Brass Nut This heating element mounting nut is used in dishwashers and is used to hold the nut to prevent leaking. If your nut is damaged or you notice leaking from the dishwasher, then replacing this nut will solve this problem. The tools needed for this repair are a 1/2 inch wrench, 1/4 inch nut driver, and needle nose pliers. To repair, locate the two element heating nuts. Next, disconnect connecter wire and remove nut with wrench. Tip: when installing new nut, remember to add insulator sleeve back on. As a safety precaution, remember to disconnect the water supply line before beginning this installation. Also, unplug your dishwasher from the power source.
