What Makes Frigidaire Dishwasher Repairs Different
A countertop drain air gap, where installed, has its own removable filter and is a plumbing part, not part of the dishwasher. Source: Frigidaire - Dishwasher Glass Trap and Filter Guide
Frigidaire uses a manual filter system with a coarse filter in the tub floor and a cylinder fine filter that twists counterclockwise to lift out for rinsing, not a self-cleaning grinder. Source: Frigidaire - Dishwasher Glass Trap and Filter Guide
What Frigidaire Says to Check First
- Dishwasher not draining. Frigidaire says to check the drain hose for kinks and a proper high loop, rinse the glass trap and filter, and confirm the disposal knockout plug was removed. Source: Frigidaire - Dishwashers - Not Draining
- Dishwasher smells bad. Frigidaire asks when the unit was last cleaned, recommends a sanitize or vinegar cycle and filter cleaning, and says to confirm water isn't standing in the tub. Source: Frigidaire - Dishwasher Odors
