The Cover Assembly is an OEM component specifically designed for LG dishwashers. This assembly consists of the outer tub cover and inner mounted components that protect internal mechanisms.
Causes of a bad cover assembly can include cracks, dents, or other physical damage from regular loading and unloading of dishes. Harsh or abrasive cleaners can degrade protective surfaces over time as well.
Symptoms of a bad cover assembly include:
- Water leaks inside or outside the dishwasher
- Loose, unstable, or damaged outer tub cover
- Detached or broken mounting clips for inner components
This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore dishwashers. Replacing the entire cover assembly restores integrity to protect sensitive inside parts. Proper maintenance extends the lifespan of exterior components.
