The Insulation is an OEM part for GE dishwashers. It is located inside the dishwasher tub and helps maintain optimal temperatures during the wash cycle. The insulation forms a barrier that minimizes heat transfer between the tub interior and exterior cabinet walls.  

Causes of bad insulation can include cracks or compression damage over time. Excess moisture during washing may also cause premature breakdown.

Symptoms of a bad insulation include:

• Inability to efficiently heat or maintain water temperatures  
• Extended cycle times and higher energy usage
• Temperature fluctuation issues can trigger error codes
• Condensation or moisture inside the cabinet walls

This genuine OEM GE insulation restores the tub's optimal thermal properties. It is also compatible with some Hotpoint, Profile, and select Kenmore models manufactured for Sears. Replace yours now to optimize energy efficiency and washing performance.
 

This hose clamp secures dishwasher hoses to fittings and ports to maintain a tight, leak-resistant seal. Replacing a worn clamp helps prevent drips and loose connections that can cause water under the unit.

• Secures drain or circulation hose to the pump, sump, or other dishwasher fittings
• Helps maintain a watertight seal at hose connection points
• Can help resolve water dripping from a hose joint or a loose hose
• Replace if corroded, deformed, cracked, or no longer holds tension

• Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before servicing
• Place a towel or shallow pan to catch residual water when removing hoses
• Fully seat the hose on the fitting, position the clamp over the barb/connection, and secure firmly
• After reassembly, run a brief fill/drain and check all connections for leaks

This power cord strain relief secures the cord where it passes through the appliance cabinet, protecting the jacket and preventing pull on internal connections. Replacing a cracked or missing connector restores a safe, stable cord entry. What it does:

• Secures the power cord at the cabinet entry to relieve strain on internal terminals or junction connections
• Provides a protective bushing to reduce abrasion of the cord jacket against cabinet edges
• Helps maintain proper routing and support for the incoming power cord
• Typical signs it's needed: loose or wobbly cord at entry, broken/missing connector, or visible chafing on the cord jacket

• 1 strain relief connector

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing
• Remove the access cover, release and remove the old strain relief, and route the cord through the new connector
• Seat the connector fully so it captures the cord's outer jacket—not the individual conductors
• After reassembly, verify the cord is secure and does not move at the entry point

Includes two screws, two clamps, and undercounter mounting brackets.

The Nameplate is an OEM part for Whirlpool appliances. It serves as an identification label, typically displaying the brand name and model number, providing a clean and professional appearance for the appliance.

You should replace this nameplate if it becomes damaged or worn out. Common causes of a bad nameplate include wear and tear from regular cleaning, exposure to moisture or heat that can cause peeling or fading, and accidental impact that can lead to cracks or detachment.

Symptoms of a bad nameplate include:

• Fading or illegible text
• Peeling or detaching from the appliance surface
• Visible cracks or damage
• The nameplatae being completely missing

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

The Drain Hose is an OEM part for Whirlpool dishwashers. This hose works to divert wastewater from the dishwasher to the garbage disposal or drain pipe beneath the kitchen sink.

The drain hose is responsible for safely transporting soapy water, food debris and other particles away from the washing cavity during each cycle. It prevents leaks and backup within the dishwasher tub.

Causes of a bad drain hose can include cracks, splitting, or deterioration of the plastic tubing over many years of use. Clogs within the hose are also problematic.

Symptoms of a failed drain hose include:

• Puddles or leaks developing beneath the dishwasher
• Inability to fully drain wash and rinse water after cycles
• Fault codes showing drainage issues

This genuine OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

The Inlet Hose is an OEM part for Whirlpool built-in dishwasher models. This hose delivers fresh water from the household supply to the appliance spray arms and pumps. 

Symptoms of a faulty inlet hose include:

• Leaks or drips around hose connections  
• Kinks or cracks in the supply line tubing
• Restricted or no water flow to critical systems
• Improper water levels causing wash performance issues

Causes can be deformation from tight bends over time. Mineral buildup inside the hose is also common with extended use. Accidental damage during plumbing work presents another potential cause.

This authentic Whirlpool replacement is compatible with some Maytag, Jenn-Air and Amana dishwasher brands as well.

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

• Check for kinks in the hose and route it so it won't be pinched by the appliance or cabinetry.
• After installation, turn the water back on and test for leaks at all connections.
