All Installation Instructions for Frigidaire Dishwasher FDB1050REC2

Dishwasher leaking from the bottom of the door

Bought tub rubber gasket and door gasket online. Neither came with instructions. I went to you tube and found videos that matched my model dishwasher. Only problem was the installation of the gasket for the door. it's plastic and the video said to put it in one way which I did but it did not work. There is a notch in the gasket and watching the video, as you're facing the dishwasher with the door open the notch goes to the right. Dishwasher still leaked. I reversed the gasket, with the notch to the left and that seemed to solve it.

The first bottom door gasket I received was defective.

After ordering the tub gasket and splash shields I ordered another lower door gasket. It was 1/16 of n inch to long but fixed the problem. Did spend a lot of money to get it fixed as called an expert who came over to the house.--Larry

Sprayer arm design in newer model was not sufficiently cleaning

Pulled the completely empty bottom rack out, popped the old spray arm off, popped the new one on, and replaced the basket. Easy peasy. One of the easiest repairs possible IF it fixes the problem. (We had an older model Fridgaire dishwasher with this type spray arm versus the one that came in the new one and it worked great for 12 years. Falling back to it in a fashion was a logical attempt at a solution)

Replaced the side rollers in the dishwasher

Removed the old rollers with with screw driver. Used the original screws and washers, and reinstalled the new rollers. Had been having trouble with top dish rack metal slides popping out of the old rollers. I not that the replacement rollers are slightly larger and have slightly deeper groves for the slides. Have not had the new rollers installed long enough to see if they remedied the problem. Will know in a few weeks time. So far, so good.
