What Frigidaire Says to Check First

  • Dishwasher not cleaning. Frigidaire points first to the cycle chosen, since Rinse, Quick Wash and 30 Minute cycles won't handle heavy soil, then loading, detergent amount and a clogged filter, glass trap or spray arms. Source: Frigidaire - Dishwasher - Not Cleaning
  • 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

What Frigidaire Dishwasher Codes Mean

CodeWhat it means
LOCThe door is locked. Source: Frigidaire - Dishwasher Error Code Guide
i20The dishwasher did not drain completely; check the disposal knockout, the drain hose for pinches and height, and the filters and sump. Source: Frigidaire - Dishwasher Error Code Guide
Hd or HONot a fault: the unit is heating water before the cycle continues, and colder incoming water takes longer. Source: Frigidaire - Dishwasher Error Code Guide

When to Call for Frigidaire Dishwasher Repair

  • Bad smell from the tub between loads
  • Dishes come out dirty or gritty
  • An error code on the display

How a Dishwasher Service Call Usually Goes in Glen Ellyn

Float and overfill protectionA float rises with the water level and trips a switch to stop the fill. A stuck float can stop the dishwasher from filling at all or let water run too long.
Drain hose and disposal connectionThe drain hose usually runs in a high loop under the counter or to an air gap, then into the disposal or sink drain. A kink, a clog or a new disposal with its knockout plug still in place stops the water.

Care Frigidaire Recommends for Its Dishwashers

  • Clean the whole unit about every three months by running an empty PowerPlus or Heavy cycle with Sanitize, or an empty cycle with a cup of white vinegar in the tub. Source: Frigidaire - Dishwasher Odors
  • Set the water heater to at least 120°F and run hot water at the kitchen sink before starting a cycle. Source: Frigidaire - Dishwasher - Not Drying

Frigidaire Dishwasher Repair FAQs: Glen Ellyn, IL

Why does my Frigidaire dishwasher show an error code?
Write the code down, check the brand's guidance for it and clear simple causes such as a clogged filter or a kinked drain hose. If the code returns, a technician can test the part the code points to.
What makes a dishwasher stop cleaning?
The usual causes are a clogged filter, blocked spray arm holes, water that is not hot enough when the cycle starts, the wrong amount of detergent, or loading that blocks the spray. If those are fine, a technician checks the inlet valve, the wash pump and the heating parts.
Is my Frigidaire dishwasher worth repairing?
Compare the repair quote with the price of a comparable new dishwasher and consider its age. Inlet valves, door latches, gaskets and drain pumps are modest repairs on a dishwasher that is otherwise sound. Our repair-cost guide shows published ranges.
Why won't my dishwasher dry?
Many newer dishwashers dry by condensation and need rinse aid to dry well, especially plastics. If dishes stay soaked on a model that uses a heating element or fan, the element, thermostat or fan may have failed.
