• Helps reduce vibration, rubbing, or rattling noises
• Replace if the original support is cracked, warped, missing, or the element appears misaligned

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing; allow hot components to cool
• Access the heater per your model's service information; note the original orientation and routing
• Seat the support fully and handle element leads carefully to avoid damage

This replacement upper spray arm restores strong spray coverage to the upper wash level of your dishwasher. It channels water through its jets and spins under pressure to help deliver consistently clean dishes on the top rack.

• Directs pressurized wash water to the upper wash level for thorough cleaning
• Rotates under water pressure for even spray coverage
• Helps clear food soils and detergent residue from dishes and glasses
• Common symptoms: poor cleaning on the upper rack, spray arm not spinning, clogged or cracked arm

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Open the dishwasher; remove the upper rack if needed for access
• Release or unthread the retainer and pull the old arm straight off; clear debris from the hub/feed port
• Seat the new arm and secure the retainer hand-tight; ensure the arm spins freely and run a test cycle

The Rinse Aid Cap seals the dishwasher dispenser's rinse aid reservoir. Replacing a worn, cracked, or missing cap prevents leaks and evaporation, helping the dispenser meter rinse aid properly during the final rinse.

• Provides a tight seal for the rinse aid reservoir
• Helps ensure correct rinse aid dispensing in the final rinse cycle
• Symptoms include: cap cracked or missing; rinse aid leaking or depleting quickly; residue or streaks near the dispenser

• Disconnect power to the dishwasher before servicing.
• Remove the old cap and clean any buildup around the dispenser opening.
• Hand-install the new cap until snug; do not overtighten.

This hub mounts on the pump outlet to secure and center the dishwasher's lower spray arm, allowing smooth rotation and even water distribution for consistent cleaning on the bottom rack.

• Anchors the lower spray arm to the pump/sump assembly
• Provides the pivot point so the arm spins freely
• Helps channel wash water into the spray arm
• Typical symptoms: arm not spinning, poor cleaning on the lower rack, wobbling/falling arm, scraping or grinding at the hub

• Disconnect power and water supply before servicing
• Remove the lower rack; lift off the spray arm and any retainer/screw if present
• Remove the old support from the pump outlet; seat the new support fully; reinstall the spray arm and fastener
• Verify the arm spins freely and clears obstructions; run a short test cycle to check operation

This foam pad installs between the inner and outer door panels of a dishwasher to dampen sound and help shield the outer panel from heat and moisture, keeping operation quieter and the door better protected. What it does:

• Lines the inside of the outer door panel to reduce operating noise and vibration
• Acts as a thermal and moisture barrier for the outer door panel
• Helps maintain proper door performance when the original insulation is worn or missing
• Replace if torn, degraded, or waterlogged, or if noise/condensation around the door has increased

• 1 door insulation pad

• Disconnect power and shut off water to the dishwasher before servicing
• Support the door; remove perimeter screws to separate the inner and outer door panels
• Note the pad's orientation; seat the new insulation evenly without pinching wires or harnesses
• Reassemble panels and fasteners; verify smooth door/latch operation

This dishwasher overfill control float mounts in the tub floor and rises with the water level to trip the float switch and stop filling. Replacing a warped or stuck float restores proper fill control and helps prevent leaks. What it does:

• Monitors tub water level and actuates the float switch to shut off the inlet valve
• Helps prevent overfilling and water leaking from the door
• Common symptoms of a faulty float include no fill, continuous filling/overfilling, or inconsistent water level

• Float and retainer

• Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before servicing
• Remove the lower rack; lift out the old float
• Access beneath the tub may be required to release/install the retainer
• Ensure the float stem engages the switch lever and moves freely; test-fill and check for leaks

This dishrack organizes and supports dishes inside the dishwasher during wash cycles. Replacing a damaged rack restores smooth loading, keeps items upright, and helps prevent rust stains or snags from broken tines or flaking rack coating.

• Holds and organizes plates, bowls, and cookware during wash and rinse cycles
• Keeps items spaced and upright to promote spray coverage and drainage
• Slides in and out on the rails when the rack is straight and intact
• Common failure signs: rusting/chipping coating, broken or bent tines, cracked or warped wire frame
• Needed if dishes won't stay put or the rack binds when moving on the tracks

• Disconnect power at the breaker and turn off water before servicing interior parts
• Open the door, extend the rack, and remove rail end caps to release the rack
• Transfer any clip-on components from the old rack to the new rack as needed
• Seat the rack on the rails, reinstall end caps, and check for smooth operation

This latch actuator links the door lock mechanism on select ranges and wall ovens, engaging and releasing the door as designed. Replacing a worn or bent actuator restores smooth latch movement and reliable door locking during normal use and self-clean cycles. What it does:

• Transfers motion within the latch assembly to lock and unlock the oven door
• Helps the door lock engage for self-clean and release when complete
• Addresses issues like a door that won't lock/unlock or latch fully
• Can resolve incomplete self-clean cycles caused by a misaligned or damaged latch linkage

• 1 latch actuator

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing
• Access the latch assembly per your model's service/parts diagram
• Note the actuator's orientation and any linkage/spring positions before removal
• Verify smooth manual latch operation before reassembling and restoring power

This run capacitor helps start and keep the motor running smoothly by providing the necessary phase shift and torque boost. A weak capacitor can cause hard starting, humming, or intermittent motor operation.

• Supplies continuous phase shift to maintain motor rotation
• Helps the motor start reliably under load
• Symptoms can include humming, slow or no start, or overheating shutdown
• Restores normal operation when the original capacitor has weakened

• Disconnect power before servicing; discharge the old capacitor safely
• Note wire locations and transfer leads to the new capacitor one-by-one
• Mount securely in the original bracket or location to prevent vibration
• If the motor still won't start, further diagnosis of the motor or start device may be required
