The Tub Corner Baffle is an OEM part for GE dishwashers. This rubber component is placed in the corners of the dishwasher tub to prevent water from leaking out during the wash cycle. It acts as a barrier, directing water back into the tub and ensuring efficient operation. This is the left side. For the right side, use WD8X227.
Causes of a bad part can include prolonged exposure to detergents and hot water, leading to material breakdown, or physical damage from loading and unloading dishes.
Symptoms of a bad Tub Corner Baffle include:
- Visible signs of wear or damage
- Water leakage from the corners of the dishwasher door
- Unusual noises during operation
This OEM GE part can also be used on Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears appliances.
