EDW4000G00WW General Electric Dishwasher - Instructions

I had a slow leak from vicinity of sump. I replaced sump and pump connector as these were only likely sources of leak based on parts select history. Turns out plastic tub had a fine crack. The crack was directly under the heating element which had melted the plastic and over time created this small crack that was found by a repair guy immediately. I even suspected a tub leak and searched for one but being directly under the element made it invisible to me and in an area I did not suspect (front). Oh well - also learned GE charges $100. to come to my house, show me a crack, and leave (I repaired it with epoxy).

I removed the old valve with wrench and Philips screw driver.Unscrewed the mounting plate and water hose. When I went to replace the new water inlet valve, I found that there was a mismatch on the screw holes for the new mounting plate. Different screw threads. I tried to find screws that would fit, but didn't have any.So I manged to make the old screws re-thread themselves and hold the plate in place. I then attached the water hose and started the dishwasher up. Make sure to power off the unit then power it back on to clear and reset the programming. Works great now.

The end cap took about 2 minutes to replace. I received my part quickly and installed it really quick and easily.

I installed the end cap by pushing the new part on to the slide rack ,right rear side

hubby had no prob replacing the new part!!YEA!!dishes are clean again!

Super easy..........just push it on and it should snap in place. No tools required!

Remove bottom articulating sprayer and water fittings. Remove and replace filter

I ordered both new wheels and stud that goes in the centers of each wheel. It took longer to cut the bags open than to install them. Works like a dream and no sqeaking and dishwasher works better since it is the correct distance from the water rotation arm on the bottom of the washer! Wonderful experience by an all thumbs do it yourselfer!

After finally getting the door open and opening it up, the problem became apparent. Partselect helped me locate the part. it came quickly, and the repair was simple. It took me two trys to discover how the spring fit, but once I looked closely at the diagram, it was a cinch. I was a very proud dishwasher owner!

I used needle nose pliers. I bent the stainless steel guide arm out so that I could insert the end cap. Once the end cap was installed I used the same needle nose pliers to "pinch" the guide arm back tight around the end cap. The end cap had premanufactured "notches" to hold the end cap in place once the guide arms are pinched down.

Easy to install cable. Works great now. Hardest part was removing the two phillips screws. (really not hard)
