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 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

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.

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

The Nut is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dishwashers. It is a small part that secures the kickplate, or the lower front panel of the dishwasher, in place. This nut ensures a secure and tight fit for the kickplate, preventing it from becoming loose or falling off during dishwasher operation. 

A bad nut can occur due to wear and tear, accidental damage, or misplacement. If you notice symptoms such as a loose or wobbly kickplate, or if the kickplate has completely detached from the dishwasher, it may indicate a faulty or missing kickplate nut.

Symptoms of a bad nut include:

• Loose or wobbly kickplate
• Kickplate completely detached from the dishwasher

Restore your dishwasher by replacing the faulty or missing kickplate nut with this genuine OEM part.

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

This insulation pad installs in the factory location to isolate and cushion components or panels. It helps reduce vibration and limit unwanted heat transfer, supporting quieter operation and proper performance where the original pad was installed.

• Helps minimize vibration and rattling noises
• Restores proper spacing/cushioning when the original pad is missing or deteriorated
• Replace if the pad is brittle, compressed, contaminated, or falling off
• Common signs include increased noise or rattles and localized hot spots or condensation

• Disconnect power (and gas/water, if applicable) before servicing
• Allow hot or cold surfaces to return to a safe temperature
• Note the original pad's location/orientation; remove old pad and clean the surface
• Install the new pad in the same spot without over-compressing; secure per the original method and verify clearances

This drain adapter assembly links the dishwasher's drain outlet to the drain hose leading to a sink drain or garbage disposer, creating a secure, watertight discharge path. Replacing a damaged adapter helps stop leaks and supports proper draining.

• Adapts and seals the outlet from the sump/pump to the drain hose or disposer
• Helps maintain proper discharge flow during the drain cycle
• Common symptoms include water under the unit and standing water left in the tub

• Disconnect power at the breaker and shut off water; bail out any standing water
• Access the drain outlet and place a towel or pan to catch residual water
• Move the hose clamp, remove the old adapter, and seat the new adapter squarely
• Reattach the hose, secure the clamp, and run a brief test cycle to check for leaks
