This OEM Replacement Part is a rubber connector with female threads. It is designed to provide a secure connection between the spray arm and the pump in a dishwasher. The connector measures 2-3/4 inches in diameter and 2-1/8 inches in height. This part is crucial to ensuring the proper functioning and efficiency of your dishwasher's spray arm pump.

Symptoms of a bad pump connector include:
- Water leaks under or around the dishwasher
- Reduced water pressure during the cleaning cycle
- The dishwasher not draining properly
- Unusual noises during operation
This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
