The dishwasher sump and seal assembly, identified as part number WPW10457989, is used across various brands affiliated with Whirlpool. These include Whirlpool, Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. Additionally, Whirlpool produces items for Sears-Kenmore and Ikea.
This assembly plays a critical role by incorporating a sump that gathers water underneath the dishwasher tub and a seal that prevents leakage between the sump and the tub.
To install, disconnect the dishwasher from its power source and shut off the water supply. Protect your hands by wearing work gloves during the installation process.
