Know Your Frigidaire Dishwasher
What a Frigidaire Dishwasher Technician Deals With
Frigidaire's i20 drain-fault guidance calls for the drain hose to sit at least 32 inches off the floor. Source: Frigidaire - Dishwasher Error Code Guide
The drain hose needs a high loop with no kinks, and on disposal hookups the knockout plug must be removed. Source: Frigidaire - Dishwashers - Not Draining
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 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
