FDR252RBS2 Frigidaire Dishwasher - Instructions

First I removed the control panel and then removed the screw holding the handle. I then pulled the connector wires off and onto the new handle. I then screwed the new panel into place. Easy job, no mess.

Received the part quickly and installed it with no problem whatsoever. Have order parts from PartSelect before and have been very happy

First I removed the 5 screws holding the dishwasher door control panel. Then removed the 2 screws holding the broken latch. Then removed an electrical contact from the broken latch and installed to the new latch one contact at a time. Reassembled all in reverse order to completion.

I replaced this latch,but noticed that the electric terminal configuration was not identical to the old original part. There were no installation instructions furnished for installing this new part, so I had to guess that the wire terminals attached to the new part in a similar position as detached from the old part. So far the renter has not called that the dishwasher is not operating correctly.

After watching the repair video, it was 'easy as pie'. I would have thought the gasket was too long and cut it off if not for the video. Thank you. Saved a great deal of money not having to have a repair person do the work. I strongly recommend watching the video.

Removed the screws holding the door panel and as the sheet said was the way the it went. Two screws holding the handle latch and replaced it and put the door back on. There was 4 wires to replace on the latch. Replaced the gasket and the job was done. All in all it was a very good experience with good instructions and very good same day shipping. A VERY GOOD EXPERIENCE.

Watched installation video and followed directions. All went smoothly.

Removed the old rollers with with screw driver. Used the original screws and washers, and reinstalled the new rollers. Had been having trouble with top dish rack metal slides popping out of the old rollers. I not that the replacement rollers are slightly larger and have slightly deeper groves for the slides. Have not had the new rollers installed long enough to see if they remedied the problem. Will know in a few weeks time. So far, so good.

I pulled out the dishwasher and found the inlet tubing had a tear in the accordion part of the tube. I searched online for the model number and was directed to PartSelect. I ordered the inlet tubing, and it only took a few days to get to me. I then watched the video and was able to install the new tubing.

PartSelect is a life saver and I saved lots of money by not having to call a repairman.

Removed the rack out of dishwasher. Removed sprayer by removing 4 screws. Removed cover to pump propeller assy.by just lifting up on the cover. Then you remove 4 screws from the pump cover. Remove the propeller. Pull up on shaft and seal. Then when you replace everything just reverse the directions.

Removed six philip head screws to remove upper half of the dishwasher door unit to access handle, then remove handle by remove two star screws and for wires connectors. Installed in reverse.

Note:
I was very impressed on how quick I received the part after it was ordered.

The repair was pretty straightforward. If somebody is attempting, they should make sure that screws close the bottom part of the door should be opened. You only need to open the top 4 screws.

Shut the power and water off. Undid water inlet an outlet connections and unplugged power to the valve. Installed new inlet valve in reverse order and it's like having a brand new diahwasher and I saved myself neaerly $500.

The actual installation of the dispenser was a breeze. Just unscrew the 6 screws unplug the 2 electrical wires and put the new one in. The problem I had was removing and replacing the front panel of the machine. The metal facing had corroded onto the frame of the door and was difficult to get off. Replacing the door was just as much a pain as it had to be lined up correctly with 4 holes in the frame. Did it in the end everything works great. Cheaper than a whole new machine.

Didn't have a Torx screwdriver, but an Allen Wrench worked just fine. Also had to replace the gasket. Was worried about the fit of the door when closed with the new latch as the handle was very limp compared with the original. Also suspected that the new latch would cause the door to seat differently on the old gasket. Eventually found out from a repairman that the replacement handle does feel limp when the door is shut, and that they include the new gasket in case the old one is worn or that the new latch causes the door to seat differently on the old gasket.
