Parts for Ge GDF511PGR5BB: Motor, Sump & Filter Assembly Parts

The Affresh Dishwasher Cleaner is an OEM accessory designed specifically for Whirlpool brand dishwashers. This citrus-scented tablet removes residue, odor-causing soils, and food particles from the dishwasher tub and gasket area during the cleaning cycle. Symptoms of a buildup include unwanted odors emanating from the dishwasher, especially after opening the door. Over time, residue and grime accumulate in hard-to-reach areas and provide an environment for mold and mildew growth.

Regular cleaning helps prevent this by removing leftover soils before they harden or encourage bacterial activity. The Affresh tablet utilizes a unique blend of cleaning ingredients that target soils and biofilms through a combination of powerful scrubbing action and natural cleaning enzymes.

As the #1 recommended dishwasher cleaner brand, Affresh is also compatible for use in Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and select Kenmore dishwashers for consistent cleanliness and freshness. The package includes six tablets 4.2 ounces

• Secures hose-to-fitting connections at the pump, sump, or inlet/outlet
• Maintains a tight seal to help prevent drips and leaks
• Replaces a clamp that has lost tension, corroded, or broken

• 1 hose clamp

• Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before servicing
• Access point varies by model; remove the toe-kick and/or pull the unit forward as needed; place a towel to catch residual water
• Relieve/loosen the old clamp, fully seat the hose on the fitting, position the clamp behind the fitting barb, and secure
• Use the appropriate tool for your clamp style and run a short test to check for leaks

The Pressure Sensor Assembly is an OEM part for GE dishwashers. It monitors the water level within the dishwasher, ensuring the correct amount of water is used during each wash cycle for optimal cleaning performance.

Causes of a bad pressure sensor assembly can include wear and tear over time, clogs or debris obstructing the sensor, electrical issues, or damage to the sensor housing. Malfunctioning sensors can result from exposure to hard water minerals or detergent residues that affect the sensor's accuracy.

Symptoms of a bad pressure sensor assembly include:

• Dishwasher not filling with water properly
• Overfilling or underfilling with water
• Error codes related to water levels
• Dishes not being cleaned effectively

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

The Plastic Coarse Filter is an OEM replacement part for GE dishwashers. It refers to a screen fitted over the wash impeller that traps soil and food debris. Subject to constant exposure to water and detergents, plastic parts can wear down over many cycles. 

Symptoms of a bad coarse filter include:

• Clogged or blocked mesh no longer prevents large particles from entering the wash arm spray jets  
• Cracks along seams or mounting points where water can seep behind
• Brittle or broken crosspieces within the screen compromising structural integrity

Causes of failure relate to the chemical deterioration of plastic combined with physical stresses as debris repeatedly builds up and then dislodges during high-velocity rinse cycles.

This GE replacement part is also compatible with some Hotpoint and RCA models.

The Diverter Assembly is an OEM part for GE dishwashers. It is a water flow management component that directs water via internal channels and ports to target specific spray arms and jets during various wash cycles. 

Symptoms of a faulty diverter include:
