I replaced all three rings(gaskets, seals) on both upper and lower spray arms as well as the top plastic spinner. I poured CLR into tub to remove hard water build up. I checked to see the spin, but only bottom spray arm spun before and after changing parts. (I over rode the door's relay to peek inside.)I reremoved lower spray arm and checked the amount of water pumping up. It appeared to go up about 6 inches. Is this enough water pressure from the pump to turn the top arm. Water comes out of top spray arm weak, not strong enough to spin it. What next, I already have over $50 in parts?
Decrete, you want to get down to the chopper and screen. If the screen is plugged up with gunk there won't be enough pressure to reach the top spray arms. Check out the posted pics. Remove the lower spray arm. Rotate the rear feed arm to the right until it unsnaps from the tube going up the back. See the 4 torq screws holding the filter on. Remove them. Lift the filter up. Now you will see the chopper inlet cover. 1 torq screw holding it in. Lift it up and there's the chopper and screen. Catriver..post back
inlet chopper cover.
Thanks, this did the trick....
Thank you so much! Everyone, even experts, continued advising to clean spray arms. A peice of broken glass had caused the plastic stem on the chopper to break. I removed it and reassembled my washer and it works like a new one. I ordered a replacement part of course, but I'm still using my washer with well rinsed dishes. Again thanks!
