This float switch detects rising water in the refrigerator drain pan or lower cabinet area and signals the appliance control to help prevent overflow and water damage. Use it to replace a failed or intermittent water-level sensor. What it does:

• Senses high water level in the drain pan or collection area and closes the circuit to alert the control.
• Helps identify causes of leaks and pooling under or behind the appliance.
• Commonly used when symptoms include water on the floor, drip pan overflow, or water-related error/alert conditions.
• Matches OEM function for refrigeration units that include a float-based water-detection circuit.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repairs; shut off the water supply if working near water lines.
• Access may require removing lower kick plate or back panel; handle plastic clips and fasteners carefully.
• Disconnect electrical connector gently and note orientation before installing the replacement; secure wiring and verify float moves freely.
• Restore power and run a short test cycle or simulate water level to ensure proper operation.

This dishwasher float rises with the water level to engage the float switch. It regulates filling and helps prevent overflows, protecting your kitchen from leaks and keeping wash cycles running properly. What it does:

• Rises with the tub's water level and actuates the float switch
• Signals the inlet valve to stop water flow at the correct level
• A stuck, worn, or broken float may cause overfilling or no-fill conditions
• Symptoms can include leaking from overfill or no water entering during fill

• 1 float

• Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before servicing
• Open the door; remove the lower rack for access
• Lift off any float cap/retainer, pull the old float straight up, and seat the new float
• Ensure the float moves freely; restore power/water and run a brief fill test

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

Inner door panel replaces the interior face of the appliance door, restoring a clean surface and proper support for door components so the door can close and seal as intended. Ideal when the door liner is cracked, dented, or visibly worn. What it does:

• Serves as the interior surface of the door and supports the inner glass or window.
• Provides a mounting surface for latches, seals, and related hardware to help maintain a proper door closure.
• Reduces rattling, visible damage, or interior door gaps that can affect operation.
• Protects internal door components from debris and normal wear.

• Disconnect power and unplug the appliance before starting any repair.
• Use basic hand tools to remove door trim or screws; keep all fasteners for reassembly.
• Handle inner glass and sharp edges carefully—wear gloves and eye protection.
• Refer to the appliance's service manual or OEM instructions for model-specific removal and reinstallation steps.

Size: 10-12 x 1/2 inch.

This replacement door vent directs humid air out of the dishwasher during the dry cycle. Restoring a damaged or missing vent helps maintain proper airflow and reduce unwanted moisture around the door area. What it does:

• Vents steam from the tub to help manage moisture during drying
• Routes airflow away from the door and control area
• Helps limit condensation and odor buildup inside the door
• Common signs of failure: visible cracks or broken louvers, steam/moisture escaping at the door top, water spots near the vent, or a loose/rattling vent

• 1 door vent

• Disconnect power at the breaker before servicing
• Open the door; remove screws or release tabs to remove the old vent (varies by model)
• Note orientation, seat the new vent fully, and secure without overtightening
• Reassemble and run a short cycle to check for proper sealing and airflow

This float stem is part of the dishwasher's water-level/overfill system. It guides the tub float and actuates the float switch so the unit fills correctly and shuts off on time. Replace a worn or broken stem to restore reliable fill protection.

• Connects the float to the switch mechanism beneath the tub
• Provides smooth vertical travel of the float through the opening
• Triggers the float switch to stop filling at the proper level
• Causes symptoms such as no fill, continuous filling/overfilling, a stuck or wobbly float, or intermittent fill issues

• Disconnect power at the breaker and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Remove the lower rack; lift off the float cap from inside the tub
• On some models, release the retainer/clip from beneath the tub; pull out the old stem
• Guide the new stem through the opening and ensure it engages the float switch lever; confirm the float moves freely and actuates the switch before restoring power

Specs: 8-18 ab tr 7/8 s

Size: 8-16 x 2 inch ss.

This mounting bracket kit secures the appliance cabinet for improved stability and alignment, helping stop movement, vibration, or panel gaps caused by broken or missing brackets. Restores the cabinet mounting to factory-style support. What it does

• Secures the appliance cabinet to the chassis or mounting points to keep panels aligned
• Replaces cracked, bent, or missing brackets that allow the cabinet to shift or vibrate
• Helps reduce rattling, rubbing, or movement during operation
• Provides the mounting points needed for proper panel fit and safe operation

• Disconnect power (and gas, if applicable) before starting any repairs
• Use the appliance service manual or exploded parts list for model-specific steps and correct fasteners
• Wear gloves and eye protection; handle sheet metal carefully to avoid cuts

This junction box cover replaces the appliance's electrical access panel to protect wiring and provide a secure entry point for the power cord. It restores a finished, safe electrical connection area and helps prevent exposed wiring. What it does

• Covers and protects the appliance's electrical junction box from dust and accidental contact
• Provides the mounting location and opening for the power cord/strain-relief connection
• Secures wiring and helps keep wire connections contained and stable
• Common symptom: cover cracked, missing, or loose—exposed wires or inability to secure the power cord

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing electrical parts
• Remove mounting screws from the old cover and replace with the new cover; retain or replace strain relief as needed
• Inspect the cord and wiring while access is open; replace any damaged wiring or strain relief components

This float dome positions and protects the float inside the tub so the appliance can sense water level correctly. Replacing a cracked or missing float dome helps restore reliable fill control and reduces overfill or erratic fill symptoms. What it does

• Houses and guides the float so the fill sensor detects water level accurately.
• Prevents the float from sticking or catching on the tub, which can cause overfilling.
• Helps stop intermittent or continuous fill problems caused by a broken or displaced float.
• Keeps debris away from the float area to reduce false water-level readings.

• Disconnect power and water supply before accessing the tub or removing panels.
• Remove the lower access panel or kickplate to reach the float area; handle plastic parts gently to avoid cracking.
• Inspect surrounding seals and the float itself; replace any damaged components for reliable operation.
• After installation, restore power and run a short fill/drain cycle to verify correct float movement and water-level control.
