Possible Causes

Clogged upper spray arm jets, Blocked feed tube to upper arm, Upper arm not rotating due to worn bearing, Insufficient wash pressure from pump

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power before removing racks or spray arms.

  • Clean upper spray arm: Remove the upper arm and flush it. Clear all jets with a toothpick.
  • Inspect feed tube: Ensure the vertical feed tube from the pump to the upper arm is not cracked or blocked.
  • Check rotation: Reinstall the arm and spin it by hand. Replace if bearings are worn or if it binds.
  • Verify wash pressure: If both arms are weak, inspect the wash pump for wear or blockage.
