GSD4100J00BB General Electric Dishwasher - Instructions

I removed the plastic inner door liner, removed the timer assembly. Replaced both plastic parts, Detergent cup release arm and dispenser release timer lever. The most difficult part was reassembling the timer lever spring. Long nose pliers made it simple. Works like new.

Turn off the power at the breaker panel. Turn off the water supply that goes to the dishwasher. Remove the front lower panel to gain access to disconnect the water line and electric. Now remove the two screws that connect the dishwasher to the countertop. You should be free to slide the dishwasher from under the countertop far enough to remove the drain hose. Slide the dishwasher out all the way and lay on the floor door down. Loosen the two clamps that hold the motor up. Remove the motor bracket, (should only be one screw. Disconnect the wires from the motor. Now just pull the motor down and out. Repeat the process to install the new motor. I took several pictures before I started removing anything. The instruction that comes with the kit is very good. Their will be parts in the kit that will not be used. Not to worry!

I popped out the stoppers at the end of the gliders. removed broken rollers and slid on new rollers.re-installed stoppers, tested all functions. tested good

Replaced the Piston and Nut Assembly! Removed rear strainer by removing four screws. Unscrewed the assembly using a large handled pliers for leverage, cleaned the threads and installed the new one with my hand. I then put the strainer back in using the same four screws. I also replaced the Lower Spray Arm with Tower because a tab on the assembly was broken. I used the same long handled plier to carefully turn the assemble out. I put the new one in by using only my hand to screw it in.

Held panel in place and drilled holes and installed drill screws.

I looked on Part select at the model number of the dishwasher. I looked at the diagram of the diswassher and the hose. I read some of the repair stories. And became sure the upper hose was my problem and was armed with the ability now to fix my machine. Thanks PartSelect

Pop out the old baffles with the help of a screwdriver, push in the new parts in their places and done.

We watched the video describing the replacement process, cleaned the groove after removing the old gaskets, and installed the new gaskets as sown in the video. The installation passed the test washing a full load after the job.
