• Keeps the conduit aligned with the rear water port for consistent spray
• Helps prevent rack binding or rattling from a loose feed tube
• Helps with weak spray or poor cleaning on the upper rack when the carrier is damaged

• Disconnect power and turn off water before servicing
• Pull the rack forward; release the old carrier's tabs or fastener and detach from the feed tube
• Snap or fasten the new carrier in place; ensure the conduit seats fully at the rear port
• Verify smooth rack travel and run a brief test cycle to check operation

The comb retainer is the small clip that secures the rack comb/tine row to your dishwasher's rack. It keeps the insert firmly in place so dishes stay upright and wash effectively without the tines coming loose.

• Locks the rack comb/tine insert onto the rack wires to prevent shifting
• Helps keep plates, lids, and cookware upright during cycles
• Restores stability when the original retainer is cracked, worn, or missing
• Common symptoms: comb/tine row loosens or falls off, dishes tip over, or you notice rattling in the rack

• Unplug the dishwasher and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Pull out the rack and note the retainer's orientation for reference
• Release and remove the damaged retainer; align and snap the new retainer securely onto the comb and rack wire
• Confirm the comb/tine row is firmly attached and the rack moves freely before running a cycle
