What Makes Frigidaire Dishwasher Repairs Different
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
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
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
Frigidaire Dishwasher Error Codes
| Code | What it means |
|---|---|
