FDPC4314AB0A Frigidaire Dishwasher - Instructions

Just pulled the old gasket out and popped in the new. I did trim it too shrt however so be careful not to do that.

Just pushed it onto the rod that held the old one

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.

Watched installation video and followed directions. All went smoothly.

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!

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.

Snapped the new one in. One second repair - like new.

I snapped on the new roller and bingo! problem solved.

We pulled the dishwasher out enough th expose the sides where the springs are attached. We removed the oldsprings and attached the new ones. Then put the dishwasher back in place.

Removed the screws holding the dishwasher in the counterspace. Pulled it out far enough to re-attach the new spring, scoot it back in place, and put the screws back to hold it in, and attach the plate to the bottom that was taken out first. Good to go.

This is probably the easiest home repair I have ever done! I simply lifted out the screen exposing the Cover and Stem Assembly. It was held on by three screws. I removed the screws and lifted off the old part. (It had been there for over 10 years so I had to push a little to free it.) I then replaced it with the new part and replaced the three screws. It now works fine. One of those home repairs that is so simple but makes it look like you know what you are doing!

Two rollers on the lower rack were missing and one was flattened. I popped off the bad roller and snapped the three new rollers in place, all by hand. Took about 60 seconds.

So easy it shouldn't even count as a repair, really. The dishwasher, there when I bought the place, had a lower rack that wouldn't roll out as it should. That's because there were no wheels on the left side.

The rack lifts out easily. These wheels snap on to small protrusions from the wire rack.

Replaced the part and everything worked fine

Snapped new wheels into place on the axel. New wheels were exactly like the old ones
