The third level spray arm has popped off, I would like to know how to put it back on.
If your dishwasher is the same as our GLD2440REB1, the sort of star-shaped piece on the ceiling unscrews. Then there's a sort of flangey washery kind of guy that you can poke through the star-shaped piece and snap into the arm. Then screw the whole thing back on to the pipe. I know this works, because I do it every time the arm falls off. Which is every time I run the dishwasher. ... Oh, crud.
Before I order a new part (spotted for US$7.65 plus shipping), I'm going to try putting some thread or a pin or something in there to hold it together. Maybe some epoxy.
Am I a cheapskate or what? :-)

Okay, the thread broke, and Her Indoors says to send for a new part (154478201 (Spray arm, 3rd level) for the GLD2440REB1 (and GLD3450RD; 154478202 (Spray arm, 3rd level, grey) for the GLD2445RF)). (You can get the parts manuals from Electrolux via a Google search on the model number.)
I sent away to Sears Parts Direct. The part was US$8.something plus shipping, but RetailMeNot had a coupon code for 20% off (I think it was 80007). It's held together for a couple of weeks so far.
