Door latch was broken
First i removed the screws on the back panel, unscrewed the latch, removed the wires and installed the new latch.
I found the latch is too expensive for a little plastic part.

Door latch broken on one side
Removed the screws that hold the panel on ( just the top ones-no need to go all the way down the sides. Need a "star" headed screwdriver to remove the switch itself. Then removed the wires (4),one be one, so as not to mix them up. reinstalled all thescres for the switch, then the panel. Job done.
What amazes me is that Frigidaire doesn't read your page to realize that the handle assembly was defective and send out a recall. look at all the repars listed in your site , and these re just from the people that have responded with comments and who use your service. New handle/switch is much more sturdy with a higher density plastic that the original. Your service is easy to use, prompt and accurate. Fixed the dishwasher while my wife went to the store. Dishwasher done in 15 minutes and watched theNCCA tournament for 2hours in complete peace !!!!! No need to tell the wife only spent 15 minutes.

Plastic handle had broken
First dissconnect power, and remove the 6 phillips-head screws from the back/upper side of the door, next remove the 2 torx screws holding the handle assembly, and unplug the 2 micro switches attached to the handle. Reverse this procedure and you're finished. It's so easy, a caveman could do it.

Handle was cracked and missing half of it
First, I located the dishwasher switch in the circuit breaker and turned it off, so as to kill power to the dishwasher - DO NOT PROCEED WITHOUT DOING THIS FIRST. Unscrewed front panel by removing 6 screws on the inside of the door frame. Then pulled 2 white wires on left and 2 black wires on right off of bottom of latch. Then used hex wrench to remove 2 hex screws holding handle and latch to frame. Then reassembled in reverse order as I disassembled. Note that there was a video on the site when I ordered the part, and it demonstrated all the steps; however, when I received the part and went back to the site to review the video again, it was gone. I'm glad I paid close attention the first time I watched it as it was extremely helpful and showed me exactly how to complete the installation.

Dishwasher Sprang a Huge Leak
I pulled out the dishwasher and found the inlet tubing had a tear in the accordion part of the tube. I searched online for the model number and was directed to PartSelect. I ordered the inlet tubing, and it only took a few days to get to me. I then watched the video and was able to install the new tubing.
PartSelect is a life saver and I saved lots of money by not having to call a repairman.

Dishes were not getting cleaned-not enough water getting into dishwasher.
Shut the power and water off. Undid water inlet an outlet connections and unplugged power to the valve. Installed new inlet valve in reverse order and it's like having a brand new diahwasher and I saved myself neaerly $500.

Latch handle broke
Removed the screws holding the door panel and as the sheet said was the way the it went. Two screws holding the handle latch and replaced it and put the door back on. There was 4 wires to replace on the latch. Replaced the gasket and the job was done. All in all it was a very good experience with good instructions and very good same day shipping. A VERY GOOD EXPERIENCE.

Dispenser latch worn out
The actual installation of the dispenser was a breeze. Just unscrew the 6 screws unplug the 2 electrical wires and put the new one in. The problem I had was removing and replacing the front panel of the machine. The metal facing had corroded onto the frame of the door and was difficult to get off. Replacing the door was just as much a pain as it had to be lined up correctly with 4 holes in the frame. Did it in the end everything works great. Cheaper than a whole new machine.

Turned power off to dishwasher. Removed 6 front cover screws,removed switch screws and moved switch so I could see wires . Unwired switch by sliding off wire connectors paying attention to wire positions. Installed new switch, rewired and installed front cover. Very easy replacement.
