Parts for Kitchenaid KDTE704DBL0: 08 - Upper Wash And Rinse Parts

The Affresh Dishwasher Cleaner is an OEM accessory designed specifically for Whirlpool brand dishwashers. This citrus-scented tablet removes residue, odor-causing soils, and food particles from the dishwasher tub and gasket area during the cleaning cycle. Symptoms of a buildup include unwanted odors emanating from the dishwasher, especially after opening the door. Over time, residue and grime accumulate in hard-to-reach areas and provide an environment for mold and mildew growth.

Regular cleaning helps prevent this by removing leftover soils before they harden or encourage bacterial activity. The Affresh tablet utilizes a unique blend of cleaning ingredients that target soils and biofilms through a combination of powerful scrubbing action and natural cleaning enzymes.

As the #1 recommended dishwasher cleaner brand, Affresh is also compatible for use in Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and select Kenmore dishwashers for consistent cleanliness and freshness. The package includes six tablets 4.2 ounces

The Water Supply Tube is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dishwashers. As a connecting component, it works to transport water from the dishwasher pump to the spray arms and manifold. During various wash and rinse cycles, it transports water to the middle and upper spray arms. 

Symptoms of a bad supply tube include:

• Water leaks from connections or tube areas  
• Reduced pressure at spray arms and manifold outlets
• Inability to fully circulate water through cycles

Over time, cracks can develop, mineral buildup can inhibit flow, or kinks reduce tubing integrity. Choosing a genuine Whirlpool replacement helps maximize water distribution for thorough cleaning. 

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

The Upper Spray Arm is an OEM part for Whirlpool dishwashers. It is responsible for distributing water throughout the upper part of the dishwasher during the wash cycle, ensuring dishes are cleaned effectively.

Causes of a bad upper spray arm can include clogging from food particles, mineral deposits from hard water, or physical damage to the spray arm. These issues can impede the spray arm's ability to rotate and distribute water properly.

Symptoms of a bad upper spray arm include:

• Poor cleaning performance on the top rack
• Spray arm not spinning
• Visible damage or clogging of the spray arm holes

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

Note: For the spray arm retainer, use part number WP3400918.

The Retainer is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool built-in dishwashers. It is a plastic clip located within the lower wash arm assembly. This retainer securely holds the pivot hub bearing and ensures smooth oscillation of the lower wash arm during cycles.  

Causes of retainer failure commonly relate to plastic material degradation from regular heat and chemical exposures over many uses. Crack propagation weakens the clips ability to precisely position bearing elements.

Symptoms of an inadequate retainer may include:

• Grinding or scraping noises coming from the wash arm area
• Restricted movement or binding of the lower spray arm assembly
• Potential loose wash arm parts that could interrupt spray patterns  

This OEM Whirlpool replacement is also compatible with KitchenAid, Maytag, and some Sears/Kenmore dishwashers. 

This manifold channels wash water to the dishwasher's spray system for full coverage. Replacing a cracked or warped manifold restores proper water flow and wash performance while helping prevent leaks at the feed connection.

• Directs recirculated water from the pump to the spray arms/feed tube
• Maintains a sealed path to keep spray pressure consistent
• Damage can cause poor cleaning, weak spray, unusual noise, or internal leaks
• Cracks or broken tabs can leave spray arms misaligned or not spinning

• Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before servicing
• Open the tub; remove the lower rack and spray arm as needed for access
• Transfer any seals/O-rings or clips from the old part; seat all connections fully
• Run a short test cycle and check for leaks before reassembling

The Spray Arm is an OEM part for Whirlpool dishwashers. It plays a crucial role in the cleaning process by rotating and spraying water onto the dishes to remove food particles and debris. The spray arm measures approximately 18.75 inches long and 2 inches wide.

Causes of a bad spray arm can include clogging due to food particles or mineral deposits, cracks or breakage from regular use, or a malfunction in the rotating mechanism. These issues can impede the spray arm's ability to distribute water effectively, leading to poor cleaning performance.

Symptoms of a bad spray arm include:

•  Dishes not being cleaned properly
• Noticeable clogs or blockages in the spray holes
• The spray arm not rotating during the wash cycle

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