CDBEH351UB0A Frigidaire Dishwasher - Instructions

First I pulled out the old gasket, used this to measure for the new gasket, cut to right length, pushed new gasket into the track and washed a load of dishes. No leaks! This took about 2 minutes to complete.

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 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!

Had a leak, due to the factory gasket was 1/2 " to short. Pulled out old one, installed new one, and trimed to fit. Took less the 5 minutes.

Both heating element brass nuts had a split in them. They had fallen off the heating element and were hanging on the electrical wires. I removed the wires from the heating element and removed the brass nuts from the wires. I then screwed the new nuts on the heating element and reattached the wires. problem solved. I want to thank you for having the parts I needed as Sears had discontinued them for this Kenmore appliance.

Orderd new gasket which arrived extremely fast, old gasket just pulls out , installed new one same direction as the old gasket fit, stopped leak. Thanks!

removed old gasket by hand, installed new gasket with hands only. p.s. great doing business with you,thanks.

Removed front panel and eased out screws holding the dishwasher in place. Lowered the door and removed old springs. Replaced the springs and sit the unit back in place. When they are this old it is best to replace both springs. Rated easy...,

The 'kick plate' had to be removed, and the feet had to be raised to lift the unit over the floor. the old spring could not be found, and while lying on the floor my husband had to 'feel' for the attatchments to hook up the new spring. The unit was then pushed back and the legs dropped and the unit attatched to the counter. All fixed - - thank you PartSelect for having the right spring.

My Son used needle nose pliers to remover the old gasket, then starting on the lower right side, inserted the new gasket and used the rounded end of handle of a wooden spoon and pressed the gaste in place by running the handle up and around the top then down the left side. Used sissors to cut the new gasket to length. Door fit very tight. Ran a normal wash cycle and no leaks.

Replaced spring on door

just replace

Ordered the new roller assembly and in no time the upper rack was back together, up and running. Now to see about replacing the other two rollers and the side rails as they are showing wear and tear.

Thanks for the quick ship.

The new spring I installed according to the video. It had a smaller diameter than the original so did not work well but when I left the old springs on the door and added the new ones so now I have two springs on each side I had a great improvement. Now the door does not fall open and hit me in the shins. If the replacement spring had the same diameter and therefore the same strength as the original that would have been even better

After watching the video the replacement went very easy. The only thing I would suggest is that you replace both springs to equalize the tension.
