My top rack is not cleaning. As I thought, when I opened the door the middle arm was not spinning. I don't think it has enough pressure to spin. This may be caused by gunk built up. what can I do about this? Thank Kevin
I had the same problem and found two things which were causing it
-The O-ring was missing off of the tube connection on the back of the dryer that inserts into the sprayer tube. I found a size 11 O-Ring at Home Depot and it worked
-The openings on the underside of the spray arm are what propels the sprayer to spin. I found small pieces of plastic debris in the openings and cleaned them out.
Now the middle arm spins like it should.
I had the same problem - top rack items dirty and an on-and-off grumbling noise throughout the full cycle. A simple number 11 O-ring did the trick! For three years I could not figure out why it made such noise and then the top rack stuff (glasses, etc.) started coming out dirtier than when they went in. Try this before you try anything else - if it works, it's a fifty-cent solution!
(The O-ring fits around the short tube that extends from the back of the dishwasher and into the top rack's intake tube.)
There is a new product out called the dishwasher filtration system. it actually filters the water going into your dishes. the dishes look dirty because your water has a lot of calcium and magnesium in it making them appear cloudy or dirty. the dishwasher filter reduces those minerals and my dishes look perfect now. no more dirty and grimy looking dishes. i also dont waste time washing them by hand before and after the dishwasher. hahaha you can get it at dishwasherfilter.com. use code DFMTEN and you will get 10% off. it fits right under your sink and is very affordable. you will be glad you bought this product. thanks

I also am having a problem with my middle arm not turning on my GE Triton XL (model number GSD6660G02SS). I took off the sprayer off and did not find any reason there. Any advice would be appreciated.
Same here. I have a Triton XL. The top spinner works, so I know water is going up the back main conduit. It must be losing pressure at the docking cone or at the mid spinner nut hub. I'm going to test with the top rack out and see if water is coming out the docking cone.
How do you take off the top spinner arm to check? My top dishes never get clean. I would like to avoid calling a service person if possible.
Thanks,
Margie
Neither of my two top sprayers are spinning. I can't figure out how to flush out the tube to see if there is a clog....
The dishes in the top rack always come out dirtier than when they went in. The spray arm spins and water comes out. I've tried powder and liquid detergent with the same results. Any ideas? (GE Triton XL, 3 yrs old.)
