    WELL DONE...... I'm a general contractor. I'm not building custom homes currently, but for my clients and some new people I take on I have put myself on call 24/7 for whatever they need done. I've never been so busy and love doing what I'm doing. I'm very lucky and very busy and very happy. No matter what you do, you can do the same thing, with some adjustments of course, but just make that leap. I know I'm oversimplifing things, but give it a shot, even it could be very worth it to ya..... good luck brothers and sisters....

    Thank you for the video, I have the exact same leak, and I happened on this fix. Mine was kind of a seal instead of a deflector, the corners were tucked in on both sides, so i used a small pick to straiten the seal. Hopefully it was the problem. Sorry that i did not take pics or a video, but will let you know in the morning.👌

    I had a leak from that same location once. I would say it's definitely a rare one to have. On the leak I had, the hose was barely in the funnel to where it was pointing at the side of it. The water was splashing out 💦 when the dishwasher would fill. Everyday is a school day as Lav likes to say 👍

      @@lawofattractionc61 Great question law of attraction. That's the water inlet hose that is connected to the water inlet valve (solenoid) that fills the machine. The funnel looking piece is just GE's design that they have mounted to the side of the machine for the hose to attach to. 👍

    Dishwashers get worse and worse every day. I am constantly finding “new” places where new dishwashers leak. What happened to the good old days where the only leaks on a dishwasher were at the fill solenoid or the door gasket?
    I found one the other day where a metal spoon got stuck between the bottom of the plastic tub and the element. The heat melted a hole through the tub.

    Ge is making crap these days. The dishwashers have bad solenoids and the laundry centers have been leaking from the bottom where the transmission connects to the drum , which to fix you need a special wrench and it's still a pain in the ass to damn near impossible to separate the tub from the transmission. You could buy the transmission and tub assembly together but it's like 100 or so cheaper than just buying a new laundry center...crap crap crap
