804621672A Frigidaire Dishwasher - Instructions

Easy

First point of leakage was the door. Turns out that a gasket at the bottom of the door functions as a wave trap. As the bottom sprayer spins it sprays against the door and creates a small wave of water this gasket was starting to disintegrate, it was letting water surge over the small tray at the doors bottom. Easy to replace just pull down and remove press fit on inside door bottom. Only when this was replaced did I find the real leak but not until I guessed at the tub seal as the leak. Very hard to see where the water really comes from! Turns out it was not the tub seal but a clip that holds the heater element got smashed down from a dropped dish rack at some earlier time and this caused the heat to increase at the clip and eventually heat the clip to extent it melted the tub directly under it. JB Weld to the rescue and we have a waterproof tub again. Well almost! The tub gasket resisted my best efforts to seat correctly and thus required a new tub gasket, still hard to seat but after 2-3 attempts we have a winner. Total cost about 50 bucks vs. 6-700 for a new unit. Wife is happy!!

Turned off elecrtic and water to dishwasher and pulled dishwasher out from under cabinet. Removed broken hose using pliers to open hose clamps.
installed new hose.

Removed 6 torx headed screw (loosens the internal control panel) and 2 philips headed screws(allows for front door panel removal). 2 torx screws had to be removed from existing latch along with 2 plugs loosened, be aware of how the plugs were connected to the latch. Do the reverse; attach plugs to new latch and reattach latch with the 2 torx headed screws. The 6 torx screws reattach the control panel and the 2 philips screws reattach the front door panel (be sure the front door panel is properly aligned prior to installation of the philips screws).

Latch broke. and it wouldn't run without locking. As a trucker's wife it's up to me to fix whatever breaks or do without. I took apart the door, noticed the model number, and ordered the part. it was easy., it was harder to go thru Thanksgiving and wash dishes by hand.

My daughter held the flashlight steady as a rock as I hooked not one, but two new hinges in place. Throughout the whole ordeal neither of us complained or lost our resolve. We conquered!

1-2-3 snapped off the old and snapped on the new! New part was just as ordered and just like original! My dishwasher is like new again! Thanks PartSelect for your great price and prompt shipment!

VERY simple---unscrewed three screws on the broken part (the little nubs that held on the bottom spinner were broken off), screwed the new one back in, re-attached the spinner.

I was VERY pleased with the customer service and quick shipping (ordered on Sunday night, the part was delivered Wednesday morning). I would definitely recommend this site to anyone, and would use it again. Five Stars!!!!

Removed the bottom panel, and I had to disconnect the water supply, which did NOT use flexible tubing (much to my disappointment), removed the screws holding the diswasher in the cabinet. Slid it out, took the old springs off, put the new ones on.

It was pretty straightforward -- no big deal.

Seriously very easy. Took screws from side of door on inside of washer, silver cover plate came off and was simple to replace the latch using torque screwdriver and phillips screwdriver.

Replaced upper wash blade and used screwdriver to pop off rail stops to slide rack all the way out to exchange

Pulled old gasket off with small hook. Replaced new gasket by pressing in with my fingers.

It was super simple. I popped the clips that were holding the old spray arm on and then popped the new one in place.

I read the instructions that others had posted and completed the repair in less than 5 minutes!

The old gasket was worn. I pulled out the old one, put in the new gasket. I trimmed the ends to fit and that was it.
