The Clamp is an OEM replacement part for GE dishwashers. It holds and secures critical components such as tubing or hoses securely in place. Clamps play an important supporting role by fastening tubing and preventing kinking, both of which are essential for proper water flow and circulation within the dishwasher.

Causes of a bad clamp can include cracks, corrosion, or fatigue that causes the clamp to fail in its gripping function over time. Hoses or tubes may also wear down a clamp through constant vibration. 

Symptoms of a bad clamp include:

• Leaks from hoses, tubes or connections  
• Reduced water pressure or uneven spray patterns
• Moisture or water damage around connections
• Loose hoses that rub or chafe

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

The Friction Washer is an OEM component specifically designed for GE dishwashers. This friction washer is a thin circular part that creates resistance through surfaces rubbing together. It is often used beneath a mounting nut to prevent components from loosening during operation.  

Symptoms of a bad friction washer include loose or separating connections where the washer is installed, such as:

• Drain pump mounting fittings that become detached    
• Water connections that leak at the threaded joints
• Door handle mounts that allow play in the mechanism

Causes of failure can be cracks, wear or deformities in the washer that reduce its friction capabilities over time. Vibrations from use may also cause premature wear.

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

The Tine Block is an OEM component specifically designed for GE dishwashers. It refers to the horizontal arm that rotates during the wash cycle, hitting dishes with jets of water from hidden nozzles. Over many cycles of use, normal wear and tear can cause some degradation.

Causes of a bad tine block can include mineral and chemical buildup inside the nozzles over time, reducing water spray pressure.

Symptoms of a bad tine block include:  

• Poor water coverage of dishes failing to adequately rinse away soils
• Diminished cleaning performance as water pressure weakens
• Clogged or kinked supply hoses preventing consistent flow to nozzles

Replace yours today with this genuine GE OEM component to restore optimized washing. Proper spray coverage is needed to remove baked-on residues. This GE replacement part is compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and select Kenmore models.

This control board clip secures the dishwasher's electronic control board to its mounting location, keeping it properly seated during operation. Replacing a damaged or missing clip helps prevent vibration, movement, and wire-connector strain.

• Holds the electronic control board firmly in its designated mount or housing
• Helps prevent board movement, rattling, and connector stress from vibration
• Replace if the clip is cracked, deformed, or missing
• Symptoms include a loose control assembly, rattling noises, or a board that won't stay seated

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing
• Access the control area; support the board when removing/installing the clip
• Handle the control board by the edges and observe ESD precautions
• Ensure the new clip is fully seated and the board is secure before reassembly

This dielectric shield is a small heat-resistant insulator that protects ignition wiring and components from heat and prevents electrical arcing near burners. It helps maintain reliable spark ignition and reduces risk of shorts or damage from high temperatures. What it does:

• Shields spark module wires and electrode areas from direct heat exposure
• Helps prevent arcing and electrical shorts that can interrupt ignition
• Reduces risk of melted or damaged wire insulation near burners or ovens
• Commonly replaced when cracked, deformed, or showing burn marks that affect ignition

• Disconnect power (and gas if applicable) before servicing electrical or ignition components
• Inspect surrounding wiring and connectors; replace any damaged insulation or terminals
• Reinstall using original mounting hardware and ensure the shield fully covers the wire/electrode area

This rear third-rack end cap replaces the plastic end piece that secures the dishwasher's third rack to its track, restoring proper alignment and smooth sliding. Ideal for replacing cracked, broken, or missing rear end caps. What it does:

• Secures the third rack to the rear track so the rack stays aligned during use
• Provides a smooth contact point for the rack to slide on and reduces binding or catching
• Replaces cracked, broken or missing rear end caps that can cause rack drift or instability
• Common symptoms this part can fix: rack falls off track, rear rack sits unevenly, scraping or rough movement when sliding the rack

• Disconnect power to the dishwasher before beginning repairs for safety
• Pull the third rack out to access the end cap; remove the old cap and snap the replacement into place
• No special tools are typically required; a flat screwdriver can help if the old cap is stuck
• After installation, slide the rack in and out a few times to ensure secure fit and smooth movement

The Shelf Cup is an OEM component specifically designed for GE dishwashers. It is a rack shelf to provide stability for stemmed glasses. Subject to chemical deterioration and physical stresses, shelf cups can crack or warp over time. 

Symptoms of a bad shelf cup include:
