What does it mean when a red light flashes above start button and the clean lint filter light is on the Frigidaire ffle3900uw? Lint trap is clean!dryer shuts off after 5 minutes.

If you use fabric softener sheets in your dryer, they eventually will deposit enough residue in your lint trap to close up the mesh. Usually you cannot see the residue, although it is blocking the movement of air through it. My advise would be to remove the lint trap and run it under hot water and clean it well, then try the dryer with the clean lint trap. I hope this works for you and solves your problem.

Dishwasher won't drain

You may need to clean out the trap below the dish rack in the bottom of the machine. Remove any debris that may be in the floor of the washer. For a Frigidaire, I know you push down and turn the trap clockwise until it releases; remove the trap by pulling up on the water jet; remove the glass trap and empty, then clean any debris below or around the trap; replace the glass trap, replace the water jet, turn counter-clockwise until it clicks; replace the dish rack. Be sure to use mild cleanser, such as dish soap or vinegar--no harsh chemicals as they will damage the machine. Good Luck!

Is the food trap removable for cleaning?

Try a shop vac, it should suck it clean. I would suggest rincing the dishes before putting in the dishwasher but then what would you expect a Dehumidifier guy say!

How do I clean the trap filter inside my Electrolux Front loader

Good Morning Deanna - Sounds like you are speaking about the Coin Trap. Below are some basic troubleshooting steps you may wish to follow to clean the trap:
· Unplug the unit.
· Remove the bottom front access panel. There are two screws one on right and one on the left towards the bottom of the front panel.

· Clean the drum out with as much water as possible that you can remove and have towels ready. The next step you will have the remaining water come out of the bottom of the drum and onto the floor.
· At the top of the coin trap where it is attached to the drum is a silver spring with a silver screw. Loosen the screw and wiggle the coin trap down from the drum.
· Reach inside the coin trap and clean what is inside of it out.
· Put the unit back together following the same steps backwards.
