• Helps maintain the appliance seal and thermal integrity; symptoms can include noticeable air/heat leakage or reduced performance.
• Restores the interior appearance of the door when the original plastic is cracked, warped, or broken.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning work and fully open the door; support the door to prevent it from dropping when fasteners are removed.

The Lower Washarm is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dishwashers. Positioned at the bottom of the dishwasher tub, it rotates during the wash cycle, distributing water and detergent evenly across the lower rack. 

Over time, wash arms can become clogged with food debris or mineral deposits, reducing water flow. Physical damage such as cracks or warping can also impede the wash arm's rotation and affect its cleaning performance.

Color: Gray

Symptoms of a faulty lower wash arm include:

• Inadequate cleaning of dishes on the lower rack
• Uneven or inconsistent water spray
• Clogged or obstructed spray nozzles
• The arm not spinning or rotating correctly

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

• Disconnect power (unplug or shut off breaker) before servicing the appliance
• Remove the control panel or access panel to reach the holder; keep small clips and screws organized
• Inspect the switch and actuator for damage while replacing the holder; replace any damaged mating parts
