This is my second dishwasher in 18 months. Water leaks out the bottom of the dishwasher. It did it on my first one now it''s doing the same thing.
Could it be the water pressure from the city water line? How could this happen to two dishwashers in a row? The leak starts immediately when the wash cycle starts.

- No foam. It is leaking at the very bottom of the dishwasher. I have read others have the same problem. One said it was coming out where the heating element is. My builder reached up under there and said it was coming out where there was an an electrical connection at the bottom of the tub. I have concluded after two dishwashers that Frigidaire is a pile of junk.
-   I have that same leak coming from where ther heating element passes through the unit and connects to the electrical lead (the one with the red wire). You can see where the water is dripping from inside the clear plastic sleeve that goes over the connection post and seems to be mostly at start of cycle.-   Guest

-   I pulled out the diswasher and it is leaking from one spot where the heat element is connected. Is there a seal there and, if so, can it be easily replaced? If not can it be sealed with some type of sealer? Thanks.-   diygrandma
after it starts leaking, open the dishwasher & look for suds floating on the water. do the suds stay longer than 10 seconds or so? if so, then liquid dish soap (dawn, etc.) is getting introduced into the dishwasher

there is alot of debris still on the dishes. After the dishes go through the dry cycle there is a lot of food encrusted on the dishes. i've taken off the sprayers and cleaned them out. how do you get the base off to take out the food that maybe caught at the bottom/
