I'm totally willing to buy and replace this part but the load of dishes I ran tonight seems as clean as any previous to breaking it. Can anyone explain this?

I GOT IT!! I took a hammer and just kept gently tapping the base of the arm all around the sides,and on the top and it finally came loose. There is no evidence of why it was stuck, but there are 2 rings below the white plastic piece surrounding the shaft. One ring looks pink and plastic and has...

Brent, and Steve, it IS driving us nuts. It sure sounds like it's metal hitting metal. My husband disagrees that it's loosened up even a little and he's the one who has done most of the tugging. We bathed it in the PB BLASTER all day. We tried gently pulling and rocking it every which way. I...

Hi Steve, I've tried the pb blaster, let it sit for some time and still no luck although it does feel a little looser..could be I'm imagining this.

Still can't get it off! We tried the silicone spray and it will not come. As I stated, it lifts up about an inch..and it's not the ridge of the tub stopping it, it just won't come off! We're really afraid of breaking something so have not used excessive force, although my husband has hauled on...

Yes, it spins freely. And I noticed how the wall has a ridge that might prevent it from lifting out, but it is stuck well before that. Bakelite? Did they still use that in the 80's? Thanks for the suggestions. We are quite afraid of damaging it if we pull too hard and then we'll be sunk.

I'm sure I have done this in the past in order to remove and clean the screen. But I can now only get it to lift up a little bit, but it will not come off. Am I mis-remembering how to remove this? Is there a trick?
