FDB768GCC0 Frigidaire Dishwasher - Instructions

The gasket was easy to remove and easy to replace. Our story is interesting because upon calling SEARS to find the replacement part we were told they no longer make it because the dishwasher is too old (approx. 15 years). It works wonderfully so I was annoyed to think we'd have to buy a new one just because of a bad gasket. My husband has a knack for finding things online and eventually discovered your site as well as the original drawing of the machine to find the part number and lo a behold, it fits perfectly. No more leaks! Sweet

First, open the dishwasher door and unscrew it from countertop or side of the cabinet. Second, close the dishwasher door and lock it. Thrid, pull entire washer out slowly. Fourth, remove old door spring on both side and replace with new one using needle nose plier. Fifth, unscrew drain hose from under washer and under the sink disposal and replace with new one. Sixth, run washer and ck for leak then push it back under the counter top...done

At first remove the lower rack to give more room for you to lean over the inside of the dishwasher then remove the old gasket tub 90 inches long make sure that you know which side goes where, so that it will be easy to put the new one. Then press the gasket firmly on the side.Now you can start your dishwasher with no leak and saves you a lot of money for buying a new one.

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.

The repair was simple. When the part comes, you may need a hairdryer to heat up the plastic a bit to get any kinks that may have happened during packaging or shipping, very easy 5 minutes. Removed the old gasket by hand, very easy, 1 minute. You will need to clean out the track that the gasket sits in. Mine had years of black gunk inside of it. You will need qtips or a small screwdriver with some tissues or papertowels, easy but took 15 minutes to clean out properly. Installed new gasket in the track, start at the top middle, there is a notch on the gasket so you know where the middle is. Installed by hand, just push bottom edge into the clean track, easy 5 minutes. Ran the dishwasher with no leaks. Very pleased with the result and how easy the gasket was to remove and install.

All you have to do power down the unit, then disconnect the power connections at the element and remove the old nuts and replace them with the new ones and tighten. Don't tighten too much, the element has a rubber seal that just needs the nut to snug it up.

Removed bottom cover , PLACED TAPE ON SHARP EDGES OF ALL METAL!!!!!!! Pulled electrical connections off with long reach pliers , removed old split nut ,it was loose !!!!!! . Placed new nut into deep socket , started by hand until sung ,then attached small short 1/4 ratchet to socket and took two (2) turns . Reattached wires with long pliers, Tested on short cycle and nooooo,leaks !!!!!!!! SAVED HUNDREDS OF $$$$$$$. Replaced lower cover .ITS NOT ROCKET SCIENCES. GET AFTER IT !!!!! Bill.

Never worked on a dishwasher before but quickly learned that on this particular one, it's only this thin little brass nut that tightens down the element from the underside of the washer. If not tight enough, water drips right down onto the electrical connections. In this case water began to drip and the heat from the electrical current began melting a clear rubber shield thing. Luckily I was home during the cycle and figured out the problem. Great website that seems to have all necessary parts for my washer. Quick shipment!

I removed two screws that hold unit to countertop,
just pulled out unit about two inches. Removed broken door springs. Installed new door springs and pushed unit back into place and installed the 2 countertop screws DONE.

Removed the service panel below the door (4 hex-head screws), then reached in and took the old broken spring out (right side) and hooked the new one up.

Glad I bought 2 springs - the other one (left side) broke about a week after I fixed the first one! Replaced it the same way. Helps to have small hands - you can't really see where you're putting the springs but can feel where they should go.

In about 20 minutes, I was able to remove the front panel and access the springs. Besides a hard water line in the way, it was a snap.

very simple to do....attach spring to door...stretch to hole in frame and attach there...easy as 123

Removed two screws holding the dishwasher in place under the cabinet. Pulled the dishwasher out to expose the door springs. Removed the old springs and installed the new ones in just a few minutes. Pushed the dishwasher back into the cabinet and replaced the screws. Job done.

I had to replace the door gasket but it would not go in very easy..So I put the gasket in a sink of warm water so it would be more pliable. Then it went on fairly easy.

I pulled out the dishwasher removed the two heating element insulated wires and removed both threaded brass nuts and replaced them both. Problem solved. Luckily I have a local parts and repair store with a repairman that knows every part of every appliance ever made (no kidding, I have yet to stump him with a part or question). He did not have the parts, told me to go to partselect.com order two nuts, replace them both at the same time, and fix it myself because its an easy repair and not worth paying hundreds of dollars, if you can use a wrench. He was right, and partselect.com had the right parts, at the right price, easy to find and order, and I can impress the wife with my repair skills. Thanks again!
