FDB658RAC1 Frigidaire Dishwasher - Instructions

It was quite easy , remove the screws at the top of the door and all the tool you need is a phillips screwdriver.

Just a littlr snap in the right place and perfection!

remove the 2 bottom screws on the door, remover front panel to gain access to soap dispenser. remover 6 screws holding soap dispenser. carefully note the color orientation of the 2 wires. reverse the procedure and you are done

This repair was easier than I ever imagined. I slid the old bottom rack out and slid the new one in, right out of the box. It fit perfectly. Took me all of ten seconds. Thanks!!

I went on Youtube to see what needed to be done to fix the problem and it seemed simple. I ordered the part and followed the instructions from Youtube: Turned of the electric to the dishwasher, removed a few screws to take the top panel off, a few more screws to remove the broken part. Slipped on the new part and screwed it in. Replaced the top front panel and screwed it on. DONE! It was so easy! Saved a lot of money. I am a Grandma 9 times and a Great-Grandma 2 times. If I can do it, you can too!

Be sure to turn off water going to dishwasher first . take lower front panel off it is below the door. the water valve is located on either the right or left side this one was on the left take the water line off the valve first then take out the two screws that hold the valve two the main frame once that is done remove the inlet tube from the the valve and unplug the wire connector to the valve it just pulls off. now you are ready to reverse the process with the new valve.

I unscrewed the kick plate took out the old part replaced it with the new one .

very simply removed 2 clamps, replace hose, re-installed clamps

The actual pump replacement was simple. The problem I had was getting the water drained because of the way the unit was installed, drain hose went through the floor before going back up into the sink drain. Anyway, the repair of the unit was simple just all the other stuff was a pain.

The entire assembly drops into place.

remove front lower cover , and place a towel under drain pump to catch water , shut breaker off to kill power , then with a right angled phillps screw drive you can remove pump screws and slide pump out after hoses have been removed also you need to remove 2 of the screws holding the top of the pump mount and the 3 rd leave lose pump comes out and you reverse the steps ' dishwasher ' does not have to be pulled out and turned on its back , a short phillps screw driver is needed and a right angle phillips also .

I replaced the spray arm that had melted with the new one The fix took a minute and the dishwasher no longer leaks

I woke up on Christmas Day to water pooling under the kitchen sink (I guess I made the naughty list last year). Upon inspection, I could see that the water connections for the faucet were damp. Since I had all the parts, I replaced the faucet and service lines. Once complete, there were no leaks so I turned on the dishwasher to double check for leaks in those lines. It was all dry when the dishwasher finished but the next morning, more water under the sink.
I proceeded to replace the water line to the dishwasher and ran it through another wash cycle. Still leaking.
I found PartsSelect online and order a new drain line for the dishwasher. To my amazement, FedEx dropped off my order the next morning........yes, the next morning.
It took five minutes to remove the old drain line and install the new one (just a worm clamp at each end). It would have been faster than that but I don't get up and down as fast as I use to.

I took out the old dishwasher rack, slid in the new one. Nothing else was done and my spouse thought I had built her the Taj Mahal. Many repairs are nothing but cosmetic; the hard part is finding the model number and getting it ordered.

removed 2 screws holding door skin on. removed 6 screws holding dispenser unit in door. Removed 2 color coded wires. Removed old dispenser, cleaned area for new dispenser. installed 6 screws on new dispenser and connected 2 color coded wires. Re-installed door skin and secured with the 2 screws. Job took all of 10 minutes . Part fit correctly no leaking and is working great.
