Kenmore Dishwasher 587.15382100A (58715382100A, 587 15382100A) Parts

This dishwasher turbidity sensor measures how dirty the wash water is and reports to the control. Replacing a faulty sensor can restore proper cycle times and cleaning performance for consistent results.

• Monitors water clarity/soil level during the wash
• Sends feedback to the control to adjust cycle length, rinses, and heating
• Failure can cause very long or very short cycles
• Can trigger sensor-related fault indications

• Disconnect power at the breaker and shut off water before servicing
• Access the sensor from the bottom near the sump; remove the toe panel if needed
• Unplug the wire harness; release the locking tabs or twist-lock to remove; avoid touching the optical window
• Inspect and reuse the existing seal/retainer if in good condition; seat fully and check for leaks after reassembly

This lower toe plate mounts at the base of the dishwasher's front. It covers the gap beneath the door to protect internal components and restore a clean, finished look when the original kick panel is dented, cracked, or missing.

• Covers the open area beneath the door at the base of the cabinet
• Shields wiring, hoses, and internal components from bumps and debris
• Restores a clean, finished front appearance
• Common symptoms: panel is bent, cracked, loose/rattling, or missing

• Disconnect power to the dishwasher before servicing
• Remove the mounting screws securing the existing toe plate and lift it away
• Position the new panel and secure with the existing hardware; do not overtighten
• Verify alignment and door clearance after installation

This sump gasket seals the connection between the dishwasher tub and the sump/pump assembly. Replacing a flattened or cracked gasket restores a watertight barrier to help stop leaks from the base and protect floors and cabinetry.

• Creates a seal between the tub and sump to contain wash water
• Helps prevent leaks during fill, wash, and drain cycles
• Replace if the gasket is cracked, brittle, deformed, or compressed
• Common symptoms: water under the dishwasher, dripping from the base, moisture around the toe-kick

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply; pull the dishwasher out if needed for access
• Access the sump area (often by removing the lower rack, spray arm, and filters); note gasket orientation
• Clean mating surfaces; seat the gasket evenly without twists. Do not use sealants unless specified by the manufacturer
• Reassemble and run a short test cycle while inspecting for leaks

This thermostat retainer is the mounting clip that keeps the dishwasher's thermostat secured to its base or bracket. Proper retention helps maintain accurate temperature sensing and consistent heater safety through the wash and dry portions of the cycle. What it does:

• Holds the thermostat firmly in place on the base or mounting bracket
• Prevents the thermostat from shifting, vibrating loose, or falling out of position
• Supports accurate temperature sensing and overheat protection
• Common signs of a bad/missing retainer: broken or warped clip, thermostat hanging loose, intermittent heat/drying performance

• 1 thermostat retainer

• Disconnect power and shut off water before servicing
• Remove the lower access/toe-kick panel to reach the thermostat area
• Note the thermostat's orientation; transfer it to the new retainer and snap/secure the retainer to the existing mount/hardware
• Ensure the thermostat is fully seated and wiring is routed clear of sharp edges and hot/moving components

This replacement screw secures appliance components so panels, brackets, and trim stay tight and properly aligned. Replace a missing, stripped, or corroded fastener to restore a solid fit and help stop vibration or rattling.

• Fastens components to the chassis or assembly for correct fit
• Helps maintain alignment and reduce movement and noise during operation
• Restores secure mounting when original hardware is missing, rusted, or stripped
• Typical symptoms: loose panel or handle, rattling noises, hardware backing out

• Disconnect power; if servicing a dishwasher, also shut off water
• Match the screw to the original location before installation
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading, then tighten snugly without overtightening

This adjustable leveling leg threads into the appliance base to support and stabilize the unit. Replacing a worn or missing foot restores proper leveling for smoother operation, better door alignment, and reduced vibration.

• Provides height adjustment to level the appliance on uneven floors
• Helps keep the unit stable to minimize rocking and rattling
• Improves door alignment and closure when the cabinet is properly leveled
• Replaces a cracked, stripped, or missing leg

• Disconnect power; if your appliance has a water line, turn off the supply and carefully move the unit to access the leg.
• Support the appliance to relieve weight; unthread the damaged leg and start the new leg by hand to avoid cross-threading.
• Adjust height by turning the foot; use a level to ensure the cabinet is plumb and stable.
• Tighten carefully and recheck stability after the appliance is set back in place.

This is the screw used to secure the dishwasher spray arm assembly components together, helping keep the arm properly attached so it can rotate and distribute wash water effectively.

• Fastens the spray arm assembly components to prevent wobble or detachment
• A loose or missing screw can cause poor cleaning, noisy operation, or a spray arm that falls off
• Restores stable spray arm rotation and consistent wash coverage

• Disconnect power and shut off water before servicing
• Open the dishwasher, remove the lower rack, and support the spray arm to prevent damage
• Use the correct screwdriver and avoid overtightening to protect plastic parts
• Check spray arm for free rotation after installation

This small check ball helps control water flow inside the refrigerator's water/ice system to prevent backflow and ensure proper filling. It restores reliable water seating where valves or distributor ports use a ball-style check. What it does:

• Acts as a one-way seal to stop water from flowing backward into the supply line or valve bore
• Helps the ice maker and dispenser fill correctly by allowing water in but not back out
• Common symptom: intermittent or incomplete ice maker fills
• Common symptom: slow or continuous dripping from dispenser or valve area

• Shut off water supply and unplug the appliance before starting
• Small part — handle carefully and note orientation/seat before removal
• Inspect valve bores and seals for debris; clean area before installing new check ball

This dishwasher sump assembly houses the pump path and turbidity sensor that helps the machine detect water clarity for proper wash cycles. Replaces a worn or damaged sump to restore draining and turbidity sensing. What it does:

• Circulates and directs wash and drain water through the pump housing
• Houses the turbidity sensor that helps the control detect soil level for cycle adjustment
• Helps prevent leaks and maintains correct water flow for cleaning performance
• Can resolve symptoms like poor draining, error codes related to turbidity or water quality sensing, and reduced wash performance

• Disconnect power and water supply before attempting service; follow factory service instructions
• Inspect seals and mounting gaskets; replace any brittle or damaged gaskets to ensure a watertight fit
• Handle the turbidity sensor carefully and avoid contaminating the sensing surface

Replacement screw that secures trim, panels and internal components to restore proper fit and reduce rattling. Use when a fastener is missing, stripped, or corroded to help maintain stable, safe appliance operation. What it does:

• Secures panels, trim, brackets or other appliance parts to prevent looseness or movement.
