Frigidaire Dishwasher Lines and Features
What a Frigidaire Dishwasher Technician Deals With
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
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
Common Frigidaire Dishwasher Problems
- 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
- 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
What Frigidaire Dishwasher Codes Mean
