4056026745 Genuine Lower Spray Arm for Electrolux Group Dishwashers, Bottom Wash Arm Replacement

Dirty plates on the bottom rack are a classic sign of a spray arm problem. Part 4056026745 is a genuine Electrolux lower spray arm for Electrolux group dishwashers. It spins under the bottom basket and blasts water up through the load. Spray arms differ a lot between models, so match 4056026745 to your dishwasher's parts list or any number on the old arm before ordering.

Dishwasher not cleaning the bottom rack?

Water pumped up from the sump pushes the lower spray arm round, and the jets along it scrub the dishes in the bottom basket. When the arm cracks, a jet blocks with seeds, glass or labels, or the bearing wears so it wobbles or drags, the spray pattern breaks down. You'll see food left on plates and pots, gritty residue, or spots that never get washed. If the arm won't spin freely by hand, catches on tall items, or leaks from a split seam, it's time for a new one.

Swapping the lower spray arm

Switch the dishwasher off at the wall and pull out the bottom basket. Most lower arms either lift straight off or release by unscrewing a retaining nut or twisting a clip, so note how yours comes off. Clean the filter and the arm's mounting point while it's out. Fit the new arm, spin it by hand to check it clears everything, then run a rinse cycle.

Questions about this part

How do I clean a blocked spray arm?

Remove the arm, rinse it under the tap and clear each jet with a toothpick, shaking out anything rattling inside. If it's cracked, warped or still won't spin freely once clean, replace it with the arm your parts list shows.
