Ge WD22X10017 Lower Spray Arm OEM Part

Removed and cleaned plastic filter strainers (located in the bottom rear of the dish compartment) that was packed with sediment. In doing so I found the filter gasket assembly badly deteriorating (rubber coming apart with the simplest of touch). While trying to remove the filter gasket, I broke the lower spray arm assembly due to the plastic being brittle. (Unit is over 10 years old!) Then, while ordering parts, I read that the Piston & Nut assembly is the typical cause of the condition I was experiencing. Since it was only $10, I figured why not. All 3 components were exceptionally easy to replace and dishwasher is back to normal operation.

All I had to do was take out broken part & put in the. New problem.

I was able to unscrew the spray arm assembly and install the new one with ease. The inlet cover was replaced just as easy. Only held on by a couple of screws

I read on your site that 66% of the time caused by a perished seal on the piston and nut assembly. So I purchased one and after watching your instructional video I easily replaced the part and BOOM it works 100%. Great site, fast delivery and good price. So thankful I came across it. I had tried a number of other fixes that just didn't work.

11 or 12 year old dishwasher. I started by siphoning out the water (my dishwasher is very close to the door to the back yard.). I found that the coarse screen seals had deteriorated away, and had allowed at least one napkin or paper towel into the pump screen. After I cleaned all that out (a stiff bristle brush and a mirror were helpful), the problem remained. So, more research indicated the piston with nut (valve) was to blame. Took it out and sure enough, it was worn enough to where it couldn't possibly work. So, I ordered both the valve and the screen from APP. They arrived very quickly. Not looking hard enough for the correct way to remove the spray arm (to replace the coarse screen), I managed to break a tab. So, the unit now drained correctly, but the lower spray arm would rise up and hit the lower rack, and not spin. So, bought the Spray Arm Assembly. It too arrived very quickly. This time I found the proper procedure on YouTube, which was a pleasant surprise in that it was a piece of cake to accomplish. I thought I'd have to pull the unit out of the cabinet. Five minutes (including a bit of cleaning before installing the new item), and I was done! Turned out, when I compared the new to the old, the old spray bar had 'warped' over the years, and it looked like it had regularly hit the lower rack.
