How to Troubleshoot & Replace Ge AP2039840 / WD22X154 Spray Arm Assembly

I found the correct part quickly and easily. In the past, sometimes it was difficult to find the correct part, or because of diagrams, etc., I was not certain I had the right part. This is the first time I have used Appliancepartspros.com and after a brief search, I knew I had the correct replacement part. I ordered it, it came, and I installed it. Thanks. I also cleaned out the "sump." My major problem was the fact that I am 79 years old, and have trifocals. Kneeling on the floor and reaching around the open door to work in the back of the dishwasher would have been much easier for a more agile person. But I dood it!! (I used padded knee guards to ease the pain.) 

Found AppliancePartsPros.com and looked up parts and ordered replacement parts. ( VERY easy!) Replaced the spray arm assembly and door vent via the handy Q&A repair section, as well as a thorough cleaning, and VOILA! Clean dishes again!! Thanks for making it easy! 

I had attempted to glue the crack a couple of times. I kept looking at it, thinking it has to be an easy fix. There's not much to it. I looked up the video on broken spray arm and it was just as easy as I thought. I was just having some trouble figuring out how the spray arm assembly came apart. All I had to do was unscrew it,using a screwdriver as a little bit of leverage to get the assembly to move. The dishwasher is 16 years old & it just needed a little more leverage to come off. For $35 and 5 minutes of my time, I had the spray arm assembly replaced and the dishwasher was up and running again. It only took a couple of days for my part to arrive. Much better than paying $700 for a new dishwasher whose only problem was a broken sprayer tower. 

Simple fix. Spray arm assembly had a broken clip so it would not spin. Replaced it by inserting a long screw driver horizontally through the clip holes and unscrewing old one. Screwed in new one by hand. Took less than 5 minutes. 

I replaced the entire Spray Arm Assembly. 

The repair was simple. I watched your how to video, and followed the steps. Now the leak has stopped. It really was as simple as that. 

Put on new spray arm 

Unscrewed old part by hand, installed new part. 

New part simply screws in. 

It was a little confusing figuring out how to remove the old spay arm assembly. Took unscrewing the top nut that really doesn't look like one. Removing the screw in the middle with a nut driver and then lots of elbow grease to get the final unit to unscrew from the base. Installation of the new part was a piece of cake.
