The Lower Spray Arm is an OEM part for Whirlpool dishwashers. This component is located at the bottom of the dishwasher and is responsible for distributing water to clean the dishes during the wash cycle.
Causes of a bad lower spray arm can include clogging due to food particles or debris, wear and tear from regular use, or damage from accidentally loading items improperly. Such issues can obstruct water flow or prevent the spray arm from rotating effectively, leading to suboptimal cleaning performance.
Symptoms of a bad lower spray arm include:
- Dishes not being cleaned properly
- Inconsistent water spray patterns
- Noisy operation during the wash cycle
- The spray arm not rotating or moving smoothly
This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

The spray arm was broken and it was a kitchenaid aka junk Todd F. • Georgetown , KY • February 25, 2015
Screwed the new spray arm on. This dishwasher has been through 2 control panels, a spray arm, rack roller assembly, rollers, and far too much of my time, patience, and money. I'll never purchase another KitchenAid product.
