That happened to me also. The button dance did not work for me. I turned the switch on the fuse box off and waited for two minutes. When I turned the switch to fuse box on again my son two light were blinking and I told him to press the start button on the washer and it worked.

    Had to say thank you for this tip. Had tried turning off at electric by pulling the plug but didn't work. Fuse box and holding in start button worked a treat. Saved me a new dishwasher! Merry Christmas!

    Thank you! This worked in 2022-had to do a second time-I may have missed the two blinking lights the first time though.

Press and hold the "heat dry" button until the light turns off. It is in lock mode.

Hi.

To reset a Frigidaire dishwasher you have to press a sequence of buttons three times. This is familiarly called button dance

High Temp Wash, Heated Dry, High Temp Wash, Heated Dry, High Temp Wash.


If you don't have a heated dry then do the same button dance using "drain off" or "air dry" instead of heated dry.

If that does not work, contact the manufacturer on number listed on use and care manual, as the appliance may have a defective timer control.

Regards.

SOURCE: Frigidaire dishwasher will not dry the dishes.

Sorry, but I must start at the beginning. Is the "heat dry" switch on. If so is the unit a 220 volt or a 110 volt? You can tell by the plug end, if it plugs into a regular outlet type than it'a a 110 volt . If it has a special plug outlet (large black or large gray) then it'a 220 volt.If it is indeed a 220 volt go to the main house electrical box and try to locate the dishwasher breakers. swithch it, or them off and on. Then try your unit again. If it's a 110 volt then you've got internal control malfunctions of some sort. I'm not a Frigidaire certified techy, But I'm sure if you hop on the phone to the service dept. someone will hand you a solution in seconds after you descibe "exactly" what is going wrong.Thank You ,very much, Dana

Is there a reset for fdb1100rhs dishwasher

I can tell you the reset sequence for the whirlpool dishwasher. I believe frigidaire are made by the same company (Electrolux).

Press Heated Dry, Normal, Heated Dry Normal in sequence on the front panel within 5-6 secs. All lights on panel should light up. Press the cancel button to exit.

Hope this helps.

Frigidaire diswasher not drying dishes properly

Make sure you have the heated dry setting selected, use rinse aid at all times, and make sure the unit is getting hot. If it is not, or there is no steam generated when you open the unit after cycle - have a professional diagnose the heating element.

Frigidaire dishwasher PLD2855rfc3 not drying.

I personally would contact a professional if the heating element was installed correctly and is pulling power, if the air dry setting is not selected, and you do not have any other error codes.

Only one comes to my mind.. kill the breaker in the main breaker panel for your kitchen, or dishwasher... See if that works.

My Dishwasher does'nt dry my dishes.

How old is the dishwasher? Check the front control panel for a AIR DRY / HEAT DRY switch. Perhaps the switch is in the AIR DRY position. If so and you really want to HEAT DRY your dishes, set the switch for HEAT DRY. Otherwise: Second, it is not a bad thing to let your dishes AIR DRY. It saves money! Just open the Dish Washer door after the last rinse cycle has finished and let the dishes AIR DRY manually. In a hour or so they can usually be put away. Works for me :)
