This lower spray arm assembly is a device in your dishwasher that distributes water and detergent during the washing cycle. Its rotating motion sprays water in multiple directions, ensuring thorough cleaning. Typically, it is attached to a support or hub at the bottom of the dishwasher. When this part is broken, there are noticeable signs to be aware of. You might hear knocking or banging sounds coming from the dishwasher. The spray arm may be wobbly or unable to rotate. If a broken arm assembly is not replaced, your dishes may still have dirt on them even after a wash cycle. Additionally, leftover food residue can result in an unpleasant smell within the dishwasher. To remove the existing arm assembly, simply grasp the center of it and lift it up so that it unsnaps from your dishwasher. Please note that this OEM-sourced part is sold individually.

I received the correct part in 2 days. Fit was exact and it took longer to get the part out of the box than to install it.

Bad Product, Design. Poor Delivery
This is the third Spray Arm installed. Why do they fail? The manufacturer has a problem that won't be solved with simple replacements. I waited a week to receive the replacement, Was quoted 2-3 day delivery.

Spray arm melted and needed to be replaced.
The old part easily snapped off and the new part was snapped into place. No tools were needed. Very easy. Saved quite a bit by doing it myself instead of calling a repairman.

Water leaking, spray arm melted
This dishwasher is pretty old and I live in a rental. When I moved in, the dishwasher leaked every time and it would had been nearly impossible to get the landlord to do any work. I read other repair stories on partselect and figured out it was the spray arm assembly. At some point the arm got detached and laid on top of the heater coil.
... Read moreOnce it was melted and the water holes were distorted, the water shot at the door in some way to leak out the front. I replaced the part by just pushing the center part until it clicked on the bottom---- no tools were needed! The dishwasher works like a champ now. The dishes get clean the first time and no leaks on the floor. I read from other comments that the part was blue and it didn't match the original color. That wasn't as important as having a functional dishwasher. The delivery was delayed because of the health crisis, but once the warehouse sent an email that the part was shipped, I received it as was promised. All in all, I was pleased with the service and part. If there is another situation in the future, I would definitely consider using partselect again. Thank you
