Know Your Frigidaire Dishwasher

How Frigidaire Dishwashers Are Built

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

Frigidaire Dishwasher Symptoms and First Checks

• 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
