PLD4555RFC0 Frigidaire Dishwasher - Instructions

First of all, I got the part 24 hours after I ordered it. That in it self was a feat. Second, I followed everyone elses instructions, pulled the old gasket out with a pair of needle nose pliers, cleaned the area as good as I could, found the notch for the slot on the gasket to slide into and viola...it slid in and stayed in. No more leakage whatsoever! Thanks for all of the tips!

Simply pulled old gasket out with hand, and slid the new one in place!

I followed directions from a video on this site and written directions in order to make the repairs. Pulled out the old gasket from one end with pliers . I cleaned out the slot in the door of any food or dirt and replaced with the new gasket. It was a very easy and quick repair that allowed me to use my dishwasher quickly. Thanks for the help.

1-2-3. Finished ! I had watched your video on how to !

I located the vent assy. on the top of the tub. I un plugged the wires from the harness. I undid the large nut form inside the tub at the top. Removed the vent assy. Put the new one in it's place. And it works perfectly and I saved over $250 doing it myself.

I measured the length of the gasket, using the old one to measure the length. Cut it to that length and installed it. VERY SIMPLE TO DO! But it didn't stop my leak--turns out there was a small leak in the bottom of the tub that was easily fixed with some silicone. The dishwasher's like new now!

Remove kick plate. Pump is right up front. Disconnect the two wire from the pump. MAKE sure u have removed all water from dishwasher! There will be a little left in the pump but nothing to worry about. Next on the top of the pump there is a hose clamp. Loosen it and remove the hose. Now use pliers to slide the hose clamp off the lower hose that hooks to the dishwaher. Use a flat head screw driver to push the tabs on the white clip over and pull off the pump. Now just do this in the reverse order. Approx time: 10 minutes

Used pliers to pull out the old gasket. New gasket snapped into place. Notice where notches in the gasket are when the old one is removed, so the new one can be properly oriented. It was not necessary to remove the door.

My dishwasher started leaking at the beginning of the summer. We didn't know what to do, but didn't want to call an appliance repairman. Towards fall, a friend came over and pulled it out and found the heating element brass nut which was broken. We put it back in and washed dishes the old-fashioned way for another 3 months after that. I asked at my local hardware store for the part, and thought about trying one of those big-box do-it-yourself stores but never got around to it. Finally after getting sick and tired of doing all the dishes in the house by hand, I found your site, and the part I needed and ordered two (just-in-case). A few days later, we got the part, I pulled the dishwasher out again, screwed on the new nut by hand and put it back into place. We're in business!

pulled dishwasher out of cabinets and replaced the vent assembly and wiring harness for vent, this was a simple replacement. after the dishwasher is out of the cabinets, unscrew the nut on the inside of the top of the tub and the vent assembly is on the outside of the tub, disconnect the wiring harness from under the bottom and reverse to install new one

Had trouble installing the new gasket at first. Fell inside the door, and would not stay in the groove intended for it. After watching the video on your website, learned is best to angle the gasket and work in slowly to the groove from one side. Much easier then

Removed front panel of door, to get to the screws that hold the door on the hinges. Removed door, pulled gasket with pliers from bottom of door, not easy to get out because of mineral deposits. Had to push quite hard to get new gasket in. Put every thing back together and no leaks. I live in Alaska and I tried to order the part through Sears and they wanted $18.95 for shipping for a $12.87 part. The part with PartSelect was $14.92 but only $6.95 for shipping. I ordered the part on a Tuesday and recevied it on that Friday. We in Alaska get very tired of companies thinking we live on another planet. Thank you PartSelect.

Removed dishwasher and looked for component that had gotten hot. Saw partially melted connector on thermostat. Removed and replaced thermostat. Replaced female spade connector on wire. Replaced dishwasher.

Had to shut electricity off and turn water off and disconnect them both. Take the screws out from underneath the counter. Slide out the unit disconnect the filler tube in the back disconnect the hose and replace and repeat the process to put it back together.

The video show a different model, the only difference is that the screws for the top part shouldn't be removed only the ones that hold the front. Replace the detergent dispenser once the cover is removed is easy. All works like brand new. Thanks.
