By: Whirlpool
Part Number: OEM18041517
Manufacturer Part Number: WP9742945

The Spray Arm Retainer is an OEM part for Whirlpool dishwashers. This component is crucial for securing the spray arm in place, ensuring it rotates correctly to distribute water evenly throughout the dishwasher during cleaning cycles. 

Common causes of a bad retainer include regular wear and tear, breakage from excessive force, or exposure to high temperatures and harsh detergents. A faulty retainer can lead to the spray arm becoming loose or dislodged, compromising the dishwasher's cleaning efficiency.

Symptoms of a bad spray arm retainer include:

  • The spray arm not staying in place
  • Poor cleaning results with food particles left on dishes
  • Noisy operation due to the spray arm hitting the dishwasher walls
  • Water not reaching all areas inside the dishwasher

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and some Kenmore models.
