Know Your Frigidaire Dishwasher
How Frigidaire Dishwashers Are Built
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
Select models add forced air to heated drying (Sahara Dry or PowerPlus Dry), while Air Dry uses no heat and may leave some items damp. Source: Frigidaire - Dishwasher - Not Drying
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 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
Reading a Frigidaire Dishwasher Error Code

| i40 | The filter or sump is clogged; clean the glass trap and filter and run it again. Source: Frigidaire - Dishwasher Error Code Guide |
| Hd or HO | Not a fault: the unit is heating water before the cycle continues, and colder incoming water takes longer. Source: Frigidaire - Dishwasher Error Code Guide |
