# How to Remove the Upper Spray Arm on a Maytag Quiet Plus 2
The Maytag Quiet Plus II dishwasher has a motor that the Maytag website claims has twice the life expectancy of most dishwasher motors. In addition, the dishwasher has a filter and grinding system and variable wash cycles as well as high-pressure spray jets. If the spray jets do not seem to be working, the upper spray arm does not seem to be rotating or there are other problems, removing the upper spray arm might be necessary.
