leaking dishwasher
took the door off after several failed attempts, which is easy to do - 2 scews. Then it was easier to find the channel the gasket fits into.

For all Frigidaire diswasher owners, after taking the door off, I realized it was the seal around the soap dispenser that was leaking, due to stripped screws, not the gasket. I rigged it with silicone caulk, but may have to replace that - looks easy, .

Bottom spray arm got stuck and melted
First I removed the bottom dish rack to gain access to the spray arm. I proceeded by pulling straight up on the bottom spray arm, it disconnected with gentle force. The replacement part was not identical, so I determined that it would work by inspecting hole patterns and heat shield configuration. Then I gently pushed the new spray arm onto the water supply tube making sure that the spray arm snapped into place. Due to extremely fast ground shipping (less than 20hrs from order to my door) the repair was done within 24 hrs! Boy...was my wife pleased!

Wouldn't empty the water
The unit would not pump the gray water out so I immediately assumed it was a bad pump. Ordered the part and had it the next day. After taking things apart I realized it was a clogged discharge hose and the original pump was still good. Since I had the new pump and everything was already disassembled I decided it would be a good insurance policy to replace the pump anyways. Easy to install. I didn't even have to pull the unit out. Just did it from underneath.

Dishwasher door would not latch
First I removed the six Phillips head screws that hold the control panel on. Next I removed the two Phillips screws holding the door latch in place. Then attached the new latch and reversed the procedure. Best part was the prompt delivery of the new part. My wife had herself convinced she would be without her dishwasher for several days.

Dishwasher was leaking out of small gold nut
The nut was split down one side, so I first tried to sauder the nut back together. Saudering never goes well for me anyway, but I couldn't get a good enough seal around the nut to make it fit tightly. Then I had to cut off the clear plastic shield to get down in there, just before realizing you could just pull the white wire firmly and it would come loose from the nut. All I had to do then was unscrew the original nut, and screw on the new nut. Then, luckily I had mistakenly ordered an extra clear plastic shield and could replace the one I had previously cut. Dishwasher now runs like a charm!

My dishwasher was leaking
This was too easy. I pulled out the bottom rack, spread apart the two clips which are at the bottom of the spray arm with my fingers and pulled out the old broken spray arm. The damage was visible. Then I took the new spray arm ( which looked different but still fit nicely) and gently pushed it into place. Done!

Water fill hose leaked.
It is rather easy to repair. After you remove the screws that secure the top of the dishwasher to the countertop you can slide the disherwasher out far enough to gain access to the hose. The hose pulls off after you slide the spring clips down the hose far enough so they no longer grab. Then simply reverse the order and you're done. Less than 30 minutes and you should no longer have to hand wash your dishes!

Handle assembly for dishwasher broke
After being told by a repairman that it would be cheaper to replace the dishwasher than to fix the handle I found this sight. When the part came in I simply removed 6 screws for the control panel. Once that was off the handle assembly was connected by two screws that required a different tool (allen wrench). I removed those screws unplugged the 4 contacts that connected to the old assembly. Plugged them to the new part and reversed the process with the screws. Works like it is new and I am oh so glad to prove the repairman wrong!!!

Dishwasher not going through the wash cycle
First disconnect the power. Open the dishwasher door. Unscrew all of the screws except the top two screws. Unscrew the top two screws last and slide the door off. Unscrew the housing for the control board. Disconnect the wires from the control board(take a picture or mental note where the wires are positioned for reinstalling). Unscrew the control board. Put the new board in and go in reverse order until the job is complete. Good luck.

Dishwasher was leaking
I turned the power off at the circuit breaker. I then took the access panel off the dishwasher at the bottom. I pulled the wire off the connector. I used a plied to remove the broken washer and replaced with new part. I put everything back in reverse order and ran the dishwasher. I than checked for leaks over two days while the machine was running and everything was fine. Thank you Parts Select for saving me $500!
