The Fill Cap Assembly is an OEM part for GE dishwashers. This assembly includes the cap that covers the opening where rinse aid or other additives are poured into the dishwasher. It ensures that the additives are securely contained and properly dispensed during the wash cycles, contributing to effective cleaning and drying.

Over time, the fill cap assembly can become damaged due to regular use, exposure to cleaning agents, or accidental mishandling. A compromised fill cap can lead to leaks or improper dispensing of rinse aid, affecting the dishwasher's performance.

Symptoms of a bad fill cap assembly include:

• Rinse aid or additives leaking from the dispenser
• The cap not securing properly or coming off easily
• Improper dispensing of rinse aid
• Visible cracks or damage to the cap

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

The Soap Dispenser Lever is an OEM part for GE dishwashers. It operates the soap dispenser door, releasing detergent into the dishwasher at the appropriate time during the wash cycle. This lever ensures that detergent is dispensed efficiently for optimal cleaning performance.

Symptoms of a bad soap dispenser lever include:

• The detergent not being dispensed during the wash cycle
• The dispenser door not opening or closing correctly
• Residual detergent left in the dispenser after the cycle

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

• Transfer any reusable seals or clips from the original tank; seat and secure the tank per service instructions
• Reassemble, refill the reservoir with rinse aid, and run a test cycle to check for leaks
