The Air Inlet is an OEM part for Whirlpool dishwashers. It draws in ambient room air to assist in drying dishes after wash cycles have been completed. With openings around its base, the air inlet facilitates airflow through the dish rack to evaporate residual moisture left on rinsed dishes.

Causes of a bad air inlet can include cracks in the plastic preventing proper draw of air currents, or obstructions blocking air pathways.

Symptoms of a bad air inlet include:

• Dishes remaining wet and not fully dried after cycles
• Puddles or watermarks left behind on upper racks and dishes
• Slow air movement detected near the bottom air vents
• Musty odors or smells developing inside the dishwasher

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

This active vent assembly controls airflow from the dishwasher during and after a cycle, releasing humid air at the right time for better drying. Replacing a faulty vent can reduce lingering moisture and steam escaping from the door.

• Regulates and directs moist air out of the tub during the dry portion of the cycle
• Closes during wash to help contain water and heat inside the dishwasher
• Helps reduce interior condensation and improve overall drying results
• Common failure symptoms: dishes not drying, moisture remaining after the cycle, steam escaping at the top of the door, or unusual noise from the vent area

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing; allow the unit to cool
• Access is typically through the inner door panel; retain and reuse mounting hardware as required
• Inspect and correctly seat the vent seal to prevent steam leaks
• After installation, run a test cycle to check for proper vent operation and sealing
