Worked perfectly
Took a little effort to get it seated properly but once the threads caught, it was good. Had to push harder than anticipated.

Missing Upper Spray Arm & Broken Detergent Dispenser
First I cut the breaker power to the kitchen, then I opened the washer door. There are four screws that line the inside of the door. The bottom two (the ones closer to the inside of the washer) needed to be unscrewed. Once this is done, you can then close the washer back and begin pulling downward on the metal sheet part.
This
... Read moredislodged the door to which I then could see the Dispenser. I first unhooked the two sets of electrical wiring hooked into the dispenser (four different plugs in total). I made sure to note which was which, and in what order they plugged into the Dispenser. Next, I unscrewed the 6 bolts that latched the Dispenser to the door-frame and sat it aside. I reopened the washer to inspect the inner side where the original Dispenser gasket would have set. This area was dirty and needed a proper cleaning, then I returned the washer door to a closed position.
I housed the new Dispenser in place, making sure the gasket seal was properly tight as I screwed the 6 bolts back in equally until snug. To wrap up Dispenser repair I plugged the four electrical wires back in and slid the door back onto the frame. The door was difficult to get back into place, note the latches and areas of plastic and metal that need to come together. Once in place, you can open the door again (holding onto the metal part of the door to keep it in place) and return the 2 screws to hold the door on again.
I then reached inside and grasped the upper spray arm housing (the arm was missing in my case, and only the housing remained). I unscrewed the old housing until it was free, then screwed the new upper spray arm into place. Once that was complete, I closed the washer back up tight and flipped the breaker back on and inspected the digital screen for any oddities.
It appeared that the part ordered was either incorrect or the part was incorrectly picked. I have returned the part and hope the next try will be more successful.
unscrewed and remove the original mount....this is only hand tight. install new spray arm, hand tight only, threads are plastic and could strip if over tightened.

Spray arm fell off during cycle
Unscrew old one and put new one in. Only issue we had was the new nut that screws the arm into place did not fit our machine. We had to take the old one off and use it instead.

Threading problem
Excuse me, as I do not know all the correct nomenclature, but I hope you get what I am saying. The new spray arm would not thread on to my dishwasher water supply coming out of the top of the box. Every time I would try, the supply line would push back up into the housing. Probably need to fix that too, but then I would have to uninstal
... Read morel the DW and just don't have time for that. My old part would thread right on, no problem, but the connection holding it all together was wore out. So I took the new arm and the old "nut" and put them together. They threaded right on, I pulled down on the arm and it is secure. So I had to Frankenstein it a little, but my DW is working, I didn't have to tear it apart and reinstall it, and I didn't have to replace it. Win Win!

top sprayer broke. Tried to Hot glue the 3 pieces together, did not work.
Just unscrew the sprayer top, which Is 3 pieces, but should be one. Take new part, which all 3 pieces come as one piece, screw to the inside top of dishwasher and all done.

Bottom sprayer has the circle sprayer, the sprayer is not effective, was not cleaning. I took entire assembly out, including screen. Was a lot of funk down in there. I put assembly back together, dishes came out cleaner, but the assembly was in a pile, i missed something in putting assembly back together, help. Dishes were better but not completely clean, help!!
For model number FGHD2465NF1A
Hi Kay,
Thank you for your inquiry. There is a video on our website that you can reference on how to install the spray arm to see what you are missing. You will find the video under part number PS11770483. If the dishwasher is still not cleaning once you figure out what part is missing, There are some other parts that you will need to check to see which one is causing the issue. You will need to check the upper rack assembly, the the delivery tube gasket, the water inlet valve, the spray arm support, and the water delivery tube grommet. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

Can this part, ps11770483, be used to replace the bottom sprayer?
For model number fgbd2434pb4a
Hi Susan, Thank you for your question. I have linked the correct lower spray arm for you in a link down below. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.
Should my dishwasher completely drain when the wash cycle has finished? I notice about a 1/4 of an inch of standing water in the bottom of the tub after each washing cycle.
For model number FDB4315LFC0
Hi Matt, Thank you for the question. Yes, the appliance should drain completely. Sounds like the drain pump, PartSelect Number PS1765174 will need to be replaced. Hope this helps!
Ok,the dispenser door not always opened during the wash the upper rack was not getting clean, so I am thinking the upper arm needs to be replaced.There is not an option to order the middle spray arm. Should i order just the upper arm and see if that takes care of the problem?Thanks
For model number DGBD2432KW1
Hi Tracey, Thank you for the question. If the Dispenser door is not opening, a new spray arm will not fix the issue. There is a wax motor on the back of the dispenser that opens the dispenser door. The motor is not sold on its own so the dispenser will need to be replaced, PartSelect Number PS3655072. Hope this helps!
