Frigidaire Dishwasher problem
The problem is hard water. There is a new product out called the dishwasher filtration system. It filters the water before it enters your dishwasher. It works amazing and has a money back guarantee. You will love the way your dishes look after the first load. It is also very affordable (like 70 bucks). Go to www.dishwasherfilter.com to find out more info.
Water doesn't work
First determine that you do not have a kink in your supply line. Next be sure that the float switch is not stuck in the "up" position. The float switch is in the bottom front left or right of your unit and looks like a small upside down bowl. You should be able to lift the float easily and hear a faint yet audible click as the float makes the over fill switch operate.
If all these check out, it is safe to say that you most likely need to replace the inlet/fill valve. If you have a volt meter you can check for 110v ac supply to it when it should be filling.
Good luck!
I have a Maytag Quietseries300, not draining
You can, but I would pull the drain hose out from under the sink and try draining the machine into a bucket. I have found a lot of machines that pass larger items through the drain that end up getting caught right at the drain hook up. If you run the drain hose into a bucket it should run freely on pump out. If not then you may very well have a bad drain pump in the dishwasher, or at least something caught inside of it.
The spray arm, above the top rack, keeps
Could the arm be mounted upside down and rotating the wrong way? Just an idea... Some of these can fit either way and the retainer will fit either side of the arm.
Door sprung?
remove bottom cover. look for an arm at bottom corners. should be two springs attached to give tension. probably got a broken one. drawer rolls out
because door opens farther than it should.
Dishwasher racks squeak
WD 40 on the rack wheels and the tracks this will get rid of the squeak. cycle the dishwasher through a quick rinse b4 washing any dishes.
Unit is giving me a flashing CL
When you see the CL error and the door is indeed shut, pull gently back on the door. if you hear a click and the unit starts running again, it may be the gasket.
Ours lost it's ability to keep the seal, allowing enough 'play' in the locking mechanism for it to think the door was not closed.
If that did not fix the problem then the door switch has gone bad on you. You will need to replace the door switch.
If I can get the model # I will be more than happy to help you find one.
Seems to have no power. No lights are on the panel
Hi,
There could be Few Possibilities :-
1. Loose Wiring.
2. On Few Dishwasher's, you have a Fuse on the Control Board. If that Fuse goes Bad or Crazy, the machine would end up Dead.
3. Control Board
Other than this, i have never seen any other Major Problem. I am buying the information that you Opened the Machine and it goes Dead. There is no Error Message.
Let me know,if needed further assistance.
Hope i helped you.
Thanks for using ' Fixya ' and have a nice day!!
1st hookup
Hi and Welcome to FixYa. I am Kelly.
To the best of my knowledge and with well over 35 years experience I have yet to have to prime a dishwasher.
If this is your very first hook up and your certain that the water supply to the unit is on check to make sure all of the packing materials have been removed from the unit. Especially check in the area of the water level sensor. If the packing material is holding the float sensor up or.... there is packing tape over an electronic sensor it will not fill. After you have made sure all packing materials (see installation manual that came with the Dishwasher) have been removed and it still does not work then call for in home warranty service.
Thanks for using FixYa,
Kelly
