Customer Questions and Answers for Sump Clamp (Dishwasher) by Ge

This sump clamp secures the dishwasher sump to the tub assembly, keeping the gasket compressed for a watertight seal. Replacing a weakened or corroded clamp helps stop leaks from the base and restores proper wash system sealing.

• Holds the sump firmly to maintain seal compression
• Helps prevent water leaking from the bottom of the dishwasher during operation
• Replace when the existing clamp is rusted, broken, stripped, or won't tighten

• Disconnect power at the breaker and shut off the water supply
• Remove the toe kick and, if needed, pull the dishwasher forward for access
• Position the clamp over the sump-to-tub joint and tighten evenly; do not overtighten
• Reseat the sump gasket and run a leak test after reassembly
