Kenmore / Sears Spray Arm & Related

This upper spray arm feed tube routes water to the dishwasher's upper spray arm so the top rack gets cleaned. It replaces a worn, cracked, or clogged feed tube to restore proper spray distribution and cleaning coverage. What it does

• Delivers pressurized water from the dishwasher's pump to the upper spray arm for cleaning the top rack
• Prevents water bypass or reduced spray at the upper arm caused by cracks or buildup
• Helps resolve symptoms like poor cleaning on top-rack items or uneven spray patterns
• Works with the upper spray arm assembly to maintain normal wash performance

• Turn off power and water supply before any service; follow manufacturer safety guidance
• Access typically from the dishwasher tub's top area; remove the upper spray arm and any trim as needed
• Inspect adjoining seals and fittings; replace any damaged clips or grommets for a watertight fit

This manifold routes incoming water to the appliance's internal valves and components, ensuring proper water distribution for cycles and functions. Replaces a worn or cracked manifold to restore normal water flow and prevent leaks. What it does:

• Directs water from the inlet to solenoid valves, dispensers or spray arms as applicable
• Prevents cross-flow between circuits and maintains correct flow paths
• Symptoms it can fix: visible leaks at the manifold, weak or no water to components, or continuous water flow when idle
• Designed to mate with factory valves and mounting points for a proper seal

• Disconnect power and water supply before starting; drain remaining water to avoid spills
• Inspect gaskets, O-rings and valve fittings and replace if brittle or damaged
• Tighten fittings to manufacturer torque; do not overtighten plastic fittings to avoid cracking
