• Helps prevent poor cleaning, spots, or missed areas on top-rack dishes
• Works with the dishwasher's water delivery system to maintain rinse and wash coverage

• One upper spray arm

• Turn off power and water to the dishwasher before beginning any service
• Inspect and clear any debris from the spray arm and the mounting area before installation
• Hand-tighten or snap the arm into place per your model's instructions; avoid overtightening

This vent fan motor drives the exhaust blower to move air through the appliance, helping clear steam and heat while protecting internal components. Replace a failed or noisy fan to restore proper ventilation and consistent performance. What it does:

• Spins the blower to pull air through the vent path or recirculation filters
• Helps maintain airflow to prevent overheating of internal parts
• Common symptoms: fan won't run, hums but won't spin, weak airflow, or loud/rattling noise

• Includes 1 vent fan motor

• Disconnect power at the breaker and allow the unit to cool before servicing
• If servicing a microwave, be aware high-voltage components can retain a charge even when unplugged—use proper discharge procedures
• Remove the grille or panels to access the blower; note wire locations and the blower's orientation before removal
• After reassembly, verify unobstructed airflow and correct discharge direction (recirculating or vented)

• Hand-start threads to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly without over-torquing
• Reinstall any covers or related hardware in their original positions

This bi-metal is the thermal actuator that releases the detergent dispenser at the proper point in the wash cycle. Replacing a weak or failed actuator restores reliable detergent cup opening and consistent detergent delivery for better cleaning. What it does:

• Heats and flexes when energized by the control to trip the dispenser latch
• If failed, the detergent cup may not open or may open inconsistently
• Can leave detergent in the cup and lead to poor cleaning results
• Often suspected when the cycle runs but the soap door stays closed

• 1 bi-metal actuator assembly

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing
• Remove the inner door panel to access the dispenser area
• Note wiring positions and orientation; transfer connectors securely to the new actuator
• The dispenser latch/linkage moves freely and test door release before reassembly

This factory washer is used in appliance assemblies to distribute load under a fastener and maintain a secure, accurate fit. Replace a missing or damaged washer to restore proper stack-up and reduce vibration, noise, or loosening.

• Distributes load and provides proper spacing in the fastener assembly
• Helps keep bolts, screws, or nuts tight to minimize vibration and rattling
• Direct replacement when the original washer is worn, bent, cracked, or missing
• Typical signs include loose panels/brackets, recurring looseness after tightening, or new vibration after service

• Unplug the appliance; shut off water supply if working near hoses or valves
• Note the original hardware stack-up and reassemble in the same order
• Inspect mating surfaces and companion hardware; replace any damaged parts
• Tighten fasteners snugly per service guidance; avoid overtightening

• Access is typically through the control console; refer to your model's service sheet for exact location
• Move wire connectors one at a time to the new board and secure it properly
• Perform any required initialization/diagnostic steps for your model after installation

Console assembly replaces the appliance's front control panel, restoring a secure housing for the buttons and user interface so you can operate the machine reliably and protect internal electronics. What it does:

• Houses the user controls, button pads and display and provides the mounting location for the control board.
• Replaces cracked, broken or faded panels that make buttons hard to use.
• Addresses symptoms such as missing, sticky or hard-to-press buttons and visible console damage.
• Protects internal electronics from dust and impact while keeping controls accessible.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning work to avoid electric shock.
• Follow the OEM service manual for disassembly and reassembly steps; console removal typically requires removing trim and fasteners.
• Handle display ribbons, connectors and the control board with care to avoid damage.

This genuine replacement part is an upper dishrack. The upper dishrack is the top shelf of a dishwasher that holds plates, bowls, and utensils. Over time through continuous use, this upper rack may become damaged, making it difficult to secure dishes during a wash cycle. If the dishrack is visibly damaged or no longer opening and shutting properly, it will need to be replaced. Thankfully, replacing this dishrack is a relatively simple process.To remove the old dishrack, simply pull it out and lift the wheels from its track. Set it off the side, and lift the new dishrack. Slide it into its track and make sure it is locked in. If it is gliding in and out smoothly, it has been installed properly.This genuine replacement part is compatible with Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Sears/Kenmore brand dishwashers.

This manifold is the OEM gas valve assembly that routes propane or natural gas from the regulator to the oven and burner valves so the appliance can ignite and heat properly. Designed as a direct-replacement service part. What it does
