Frigidare professional dishwasher. We have had

Reportedly about 18 years old. Kenmore appliances may be made by Frigidaire currently and this product number was originally attached to Kenmore appliances. Whether or not you can find a manual to an 18 year old dishwasher is anyone's guess. However, here is a video regarding cleaning a Kenmore dishwasher filter: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MiriGVf90fI

And here is a link which includes a video for cleaning Frigidare dishwasher filters: https://www.hunker.com/13407641/how-to-clean-a-frigidaire-dishwasher-filter

Purportedly, one can get manuals for the Frigidare products at the Frigidare site. But for an 18 year old dishwasher made by Kenmore? That is not to say you cannot get parts for one: https://www.repairclinic.com/ProductDetail/929216 or repair tips: https://www.appliancepartspros.com/repair-help/kenmore-dishwasher-36314071792-repair

Hopefully, one of these sites may be of assistance.

Good Morning Kristen - You may try to reset the dishwasher by unplugging it or flipping the household circuit breaker off. Wait approximately ten minutes and turn the dishwasher back on. If this proves to be ineffective, then the unit may possibly being experiencing a communication issue with the control panel, wiring failure, drain motor/pump or water valve. Because it could be a number of any one of several underlying causes, I would recommend contacting a professional to properly diagnose and repair the unit.

Hello ezideas - First I suggest verifying that there is enough water pressure coming into the unit and that it is at least 120F. Do you noticed if the spray arm will rotate freely or if it is damaged? If so, the spray arm assembly may need to be replaced. Connect with a professional to accurately pinpoint any potentially more serious issue.

From what you have described, sounds like the sprayer arms are possibly loose or being held into place and can't rotate, by dishware.

Leaking Dishwasher

Hi there. Here are some solutions that may help you combat this issue with the non cleaning of the dishes during the wash.


• Choose another cycle for longer washing
time.
• Check rack loading section for proper
loading—avoid nesting items.
• Home water pressure may be too low—
should be 20 to 120 pounds per square inch
(psi).
• Check incoming water temperature. It
should be at least 120°F (49°C). (See
Factors Affecting Performance.)
• Check water hardness. For extremely hard
water, it may be necessary to install a water
softener. (See Detergent Chart.)
• Use fresh detergent.
• Check to make sure funnel in top rack is not
blocked.
• Make sure items are not blocking the spray
arms, preventing them from rotating.
• Check to see if the rinse aid dispenser
needs refilling.


Next, you mentioned in your text that you were experiencing a burning scent after the was or during it. i have a few solutions for that as well.

• Soiled dishes left in dishwasher too long can
create an odor. Use Rinse & Hold cycle.
• There will be a "new" smell when first
installed. This is normal.
• Check to see if unit is draining properly.

One more thing, sometimes food or plastic dishware will fall between the spaces in the basket that holds the dishes. these plastics can be burned by the heating element inducing a burning scent during the drying process. always make sure that all plastics are secure before you start the cycle. food can get stuck on this heater element as well causing a burned smell.

If you have your dishwasher on an outside wall, the water line may be frozen, try opening the sink cabinet doors allowing warm air to circulate around the water line.

remove chopper, clean screen on chopper.

hmmm..empty it entirely...check for any obstructions, and then, you'll need to have a service professional look into it..sounds like it's motor for arm
