The Turbidity Sensor is an OEM part for GE dishwashers. It is a water quality monitor that detects small food particles in the rinse water during dishwashing cycles. The sensor plays an important quality control role by ensuring water has achieved the necessary clarity before terminating the rinse phase.

Symptoms of a bad turbidity sensor include:

• Incomplete or unsatisfactory rinsing results
• Cycles not advancing properly beyond the rinse stage
• Error codes related to turbidity detection

Causes can be mineral deposits interfering with the sensor's ability to transmit light through the water, or failure of the electronic components over time.

This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

The Fine Filter is an OEM part for GE dishwashers. Located at the bottom of the dishwasher tub, the fine filter traps small food particles and debris to prevent clogs in the wash pump and other components. It is a critical filter that helps optimize cleaning performance and protect internal mechanisms.

Symptoms of a bad fine filter include:

• Reduced or inefficient water spraying from the arms  
• Accumulation of debris inside the tub
• Foul odors emitting from the dishwasher
• Drainage or water flow issues 

Over time, particles can accumulate in the fine filter mesh causing it to become clogged. Choosing this genuine GE replacement ensures optimal filtration. It upgrades your dishwasher with a new filter to once again trap particles and keep the wash system running smoothly. This OEM GE part aligns with specifications for Crosley, KitchenAid, and select Kenmore dishwashers as well.
