This Part Fixes These Problems

Upper Rack Not Cleaning

Dishes on the top rack come out dirty, greasy, or spotted because the 3rd-level spinner is clogged, cracked, or no longer rotating — starving the upper rack of spray pressure.

Spinner Fell Off or Won't Stay On

The spinner arm has detached from the top-of-tub shaft or the retention pin is worn out, causing the arm to rattle loose and stopping water distribution entirely.

Unusual Rattling Noise During Wash

A cracked or unbalanced spinner wobbles at speed, creating a rhythmic knocking or grinding sound from the top of the dishwasher during the wash and rinse phases.

Weak or Uneven Water Spray Pattern

Mineral buildup from hard water has blocked the spray jets in the spinner, reducing water pressure and causing uneven coverage across the upper rack dishes.

Product Description

Why Choose Our 8193983 Dishwasher Spinner Kit?

🔧
Built to OEM Specifications Engineered to match original Whirlpool dimensions — 3.5 × 1.8 × 1 inch profile, white polypropylene construction — for a guaranteed drop-in fit on all compatible models.
💧
3rd-Level Top-of-Tub Coverage Functions as a miniature spray arm mounted at the very top of the dishwasher tub, distributing pressurized water from the feed tube across the entire upper rack for thorough rinsing of every dish.
🏆
Wide Cross-Brand Compatibility One part covers Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Maytag, Kenmore, Jenn-Air, Amana, Estate, Inglis, Roper, Admiral, Norge, Magic Chef, Hardwick, Crosley, Modern-Maid, Caloric, and IKEA dishwasher platforms.
⚙️
Snap-Lock Pin Retention Includes the upper spray arm spinner and the locking retention pin. The pin inserts into the center shaft to lock the spinner firmly in place, eliminating the wobble and falloff issues common on worn originals.
🛡️
Wear-Resistant PA6 / POM Material Molded from high-grade PA6 nylon and POM acetal for superior resistance to hot water, detergent chemicals, and mineral scaling — outlasting standard replacement spinner kits.
⏱️
5–15 Minute DIY Install Verified by dozens of real user reviews: most homeowners complete this repair in under 15 minutes using only a standard screwdriver — no plumber or technician needed.

💡 Pro Tip: Is Your 8193983 Spinner the Problem?

Your part is likely the culprit if you notice any of the following:

⚠️ Upper rack dishes come out dirty, greasy, or spotted after a full wash cycle

⚠️ Spinner arm is physically cracked, chipped, or has fallen off the top-of-tub shaft

⚠️ Unusual rattling or grinding noise from the top of the dishwasher tub during the wash phase

⚠️ Water spray holes in the spinner are visibly clogged with white mineral deposits and cannot be cleared by soaking

🔍 Quick diagnosis: Start a wash cycle, open the door after 3–4 minutes, and watch the top of the tub. The spinner should be rotating and spraying water in a fan pattern. If it is stationary, blocked, or missing, replace part 8193983. Also check water level — the heater element must be submerged for sufficient pressure to reach the upper arm.

📦 What's in the Box

✅ 1× Dishwasher Upper Wash Arm Spinner (3rd-Level, White, ~3.5" diameter)

✅ 1× Locking Retention Pin (center shaft lock)

Questions & Answers

Will this spinner fit my KitchenAid KUDC10FXBL dishwasher?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Mar 15, 2024
Yes. Part 8193983 is manufactured by Whirlpool for use across the KitchenAid, Whirlpool, Maytag, and Kenmore dishwasher platforms. The KUDC10FXBL series is on the confirmed compatibility list. Just verify your full model suffix (e.g., KUDC10FXBL0 through KUDC10FXBL7) against our model list to be sure.
The spinner fell off inside my dishwasher — do I need to replace the whole spray arm tower too?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Nov 20, 2023
Not necessarily. The 8193983 kit includes both the spinner arm and the retention pin, which is the most common failure point. If the spinner simply popped off and the central shaft/tower (WP8579224) still feels solid and is not cracked, replacing just the 8193983 kit will fix the problem. Only replace the tower if the shaft is broken or too worn to hold the new pin securely.
My top rack dishes are still dirty after replacing the spinner. What else should I check?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jan 8, 2025
If the new spinner is installed correctly but the upper rack still isn't cleaning, check two things: (1) Water level — open the door mid-cycle and confirm the water level reaches at least the bottom of the heating element; if not, the fill valve (WPW10158389) may need replacement. (2) The filter/sump screen at the bottom of the tub — a clogged filter reduces system pressure throughout the entire wash circuit, including the upper arm.
What does this spinner kit include? Is it just the plastic arm or the full assembly?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jul 22, 2024
The 8193983 kit includes 1× upper wash arm spinner (the rotating plastic arm, approx. 3.5 inches in diameter) and 1× center locking retention pin that secures the spinner to the top-of-tub shaft. It does not include the upper spray arm tower/manifold tube itself. If you only need the pin separately, note that it is not sold individually — the full 8193983 kit must be ordered.
How do I stop the new spinner from getting clogged again so quickly?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Feb 10, 2026
Hard water mineral buildup is the number one cause of premature spinner failure. We recommend: (1) Running an affresh® dishwasher cleaner tablet (W10282479) monthly to dissolve limescale inside the spray jets. (2) Periodically removing the spinner and soaking it in a 50/50 white vinegar and warm water solution for 30 minutes. (3) If your water hardness is above 10 gpg, consider installing an in-line water softener — this single step dramatically extends the life of all dishwasher spray components.
