The lower spray arm is mounted to the bottom of your dishwasher tub, and it rotates and sprays water to clean the dishes in the lower dish rack. This spray arm is made of gray plastic, and is approximately 20 inches in width. The lower spray arm will not spin if it has become clogged with debris and hard water deposits from your dishwasher, if it has become jammed by silverware, causing it to melt, or if the bottom of the spray arm has become disconnected from the bottom of the tub. If the spray arm encounters any of these issues, it will need to be replaced. To replace the spray arm, remove the lower dish rack and simply unscrew the old arm. Screw the new spray arm in until it locks into place.

Dish Washer not cleaning well, spray arms not turning much all ttree had mineral build-up and even trash in them.
Ordered and replaced all three spray arms. The upper and middle spray arms were quickly replaced with a net-driver and are now working much better. The lower spray arm required no tool, just turn it CCW and lift it up. After replacement lower spray arm is still not moving at all. Maybe the lower spray arm washer is defective or the pum
... Read morep is just not putting out enough water. Will consider further repairs or replacement of the dish washer, it is 13 years old and used daily.
I watched the video, read the instructions and went to work. This was the easiest repair I have ever done. I'm 71 and if I can do all 3 spray arms in a total of 15 minutes, anyone can. The hardest part was getting up off the floor when I was finished. The spray arms were all clogged, we have very hard water.
This was very easy. 1) roll out lower rack, 2) rotate lower arm slightly counter-clockwise and lift it out, 3) install new lower arm by dropping into position and rotating clockwise. 4) roll in lower rack, and roll out upper rack, 5) use a nut driver to remove the retaining bolt/screw from the upper arm - it's in the center of the upper
... Read more arm and you have to work from underside of upper rack, 6) remover upper arm, 7) install new upper arm by holding in position and re-inserting the retaining bolt/screw. 8) Tighten the retaining screw and make sure upper arm freely rotates.
My dishwasher was doing a terrible job of cleaning. It was leaving food on dishes, and wasn't dissolving all the detergent. I replaced all the spray arms and the filter, as they seemed clogged, and god knows how old. It's a super easy repair, and the dishwasher now works as if it were brand new.

How do I remove the bottom spray arm?
For model number ZBD6880K10SS
Hi Fred,
Thank you for the great question! Once you remove the racks you can turn the lower spray arm counterclockwise while pulling up and it will lift out and then reverse the steps to install the new one.
Hope this helps!

What is the purpose of the two flat metal parts on the lower spray arm?
Hi Tony,
Thank you for your question. The metal pieces on the underside of the lower spray arm are heat protectors. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

Is there a removable filter that needs cleaning for this type of dishwasher. If yes where is filter and how to clean
For model number GSD6660G10SS
Hello Archana, thank you for your question. Yes, the Filter is PS958919 and we have a video to show you where it is and how to replace it. Hope to hear from you!
Detergent is not desloving. Detergent door opens but detergent is still there, parcially desloved.
For model number GLD4400N00WW
Hi Ralph, thank you for your question. There are a couple of parts that could cause the issue that you are having. I would suggest first check your heating element. If your water is not getting hot enough then your detergent will not dissolve. You may also want to make sure that you dispenser is working as well. If that part is not releasing the detergent at the right time that also may be why it does not dissolve all the way. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.
