Lower arm spray disengaged

Used both the Wash Arm Retainer Nut and the Seal. The nut had broken in half and the old seal had cracked, so removed the lower wash arm, which included the top half of the nut, and was able to unscrew the bottom half of the nut from the machine. Put on the seal ring and then put the nut into the wash arm and secured it to the machine. ... Read more

The wash arm retainer nut had broken off so that the arm had fallen off.

The nut had broken off even with the top of the threaded area, so we had to remove that broken part.

wash arm nut broken

As per the machine diagram shown on PartSelect's site, we reassembled the wash arm. It was about as difficult as screwing in a light bulb! This part has broken in the past, and we'd called a repair service to check it out, which cost us $65! This time we paid $11 (including shipping!) got the part in less that 3 days, didn't have to wait ... Read more

The old nut broke off. How do i get the rest of it out of the hole?

Hi Peggy, Thank you for your question. If the little tab that you turn the nut with has broken off, you may have to use pliers or have a technician come to service your appliance to remove the nut. Good luck with your repair.
