Replace rusted upper dishrack on Frigidaire Professional dishwasher
1. Watch YouTube videos, even though they're different model dishwashers. NOTE: all replacement racks are not OEM, they're cheap imitations, thinner material, not original design for holding dishware.
2. Replace rusted upper rack, rack simply lifts out; no need to remove rail end caps.
3. Carefully remove attachments from original basket ( no tools were required), be especially careful detaching the upper spray arm from the underside of the basket.
4. Attach previously removed original attachments (not all would fit because of replacement rack design). Attach upper spray arm.
5. Reinsert replacement basket into upper rails.

Broken lid of the detergent dispenser.
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.

Rinse aid dispenser leaking and empty after 4 wash cycles
Needed to replace detergent / rinse aid dispenser unit on the inside top of door.
1) Need to remove outer door cover / panel by removing just two (2) screws - bottom screws on lower side panel. Door panel will drop vertically 1" to remove it.
2) Mark and disconnect the four (4) wires connected to the dispenser unit. The connections were so tight, it required pliers and a screw driver to loosen them.
3) Dispenser unit has four (4) screws holding it in place. Unscrew them and remove unit through door interior - this requires a bit of angling to get it out.
4) Position new unit through interior. Screw in place.
5) Re-attach four (4) wires in same sequence as disconnected.
6) Re-attach outer door cover. This is the most difficult part and really requires two people. It consistents of two sets of guide channels that most be aligned for the door panel to be secured re-attached.. Once aligned, the door cover must be moved vertically about an 1" and the screws re-attached.

Upper dishwasher rack rusted
Upper dishwasher rack easily removes off roller arms with upward tilt. Upper water tube/spray arm assembly unsnap from old rack and snaps onto new rack... no tools needed. Lucky enough new height adjustment levers come with new rack and with firm push they snap into place also. Stemware holder also unsnapped off old rack and then snapped onto new rack. Upper rack returned to dishwasher with upward tilt and threaded back on roller arms. Easy peasy. Done.

One of the nylon cables for the door counter balance broke
Preface: I had to remove the dishwasher anyway since I was replacing cabinets. So sitting in the garage it took less than 10 minutes to replace both sides. If I had to do this with dishwasher installed...2 screws pull dishwasher out 6 inches, unhook the spring, unhook the cable, hook new cable, rehook spring. Dido for the other side, slide dishwasher back in place reinstall attachment screws.
All that...max 30 minutes. So easy.
