Servicing the Vertical Water Tube

The vertical water tube in these models delivers
water to the spray arm mounted underneath the
upper dish rack and a smaller spray arm mounted
at the top of the dishwasher tub. (Fig. 3-4)
If the pump and motor assembly must be
removed for servicing, the vertical water tube
must be disconnected from the pump cover as
follows:
1. Remove the upper dish rack.
2. Dislodge the upper portion of the
vertical water tube from the plastic
knob on the back of the tub by pressing
down on the nozzle. (Fig. 3-5)
3. Pull the securing tabs of the clamp holding
the internal water feed tube to the pump
outlet nozzle and remove the clamp. (Fig. 3-6)
4. Rotate the lower end of the tube either left
or right off the pump nozzle. (Fig. 3-7)
