Bill July 22, 2015 for Model Number Frigidaire Dishwasher FGHD2465NF1A How do I install the Pump Assembly AP5690431?
1 Answer Hello Bill, You will need to dis-continue power to the unit and remove the kickpanel to access the drain pump. Be sure to use a wet-vac to remove the water from the unit before removing the drain pump. You will need to have a towel to catch the small amount of water that will still be present in the sump area when the pump is removed and dis-connect the two wires to the pump and depress the locking tab to unscrew the pump from the sump housing, (about 1/4 turn). Before you re-install the drain pump you will need to make sure the seal/"O" ring is present and properly positioned. Also check for leaks by letting the unit fill with water before re-installing the kickpanel. Read More...

Ron M April 14, 2015 for Model Number FFBD2411NS0A My dishwasher wont drain and I dont hear the pump. When I checked out the pump, it was extremely hot. Is it bad?
1 Answer Ron, You will want to pull the drain pump and make sure that there is nothing clogged in the drain which would cause the unit to not drain. If it is clear then the drain pump will most likely be faulty. Read More...

1 Answer Hello Rick. You will use a meter and put the pump into a drain cycle and test for power to the pump. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...

Frank December 20, 2014 for Model Number FGHD2433KF1 Frigidaire Gallery Dishwater drains, but still leaves water behind. Just replaced the drain pump and got water coming out at a good rate. So the pump and draining does work and I can hear it in the sink again, so the pump was bad prior. But still have water sitting in the bottom at the end of the the wash cycle. What are my next steps in testing and what am I looking for?
1 Answer Frank, You will want to check the drain line to make sure that it goes up to at least a 32" loop before going into the sink drain. If not then this will cause water to flow back into the unit. You will also want to make sure that the water valve is not leaking and causing the issue. Read More...

Colleen Parks July 11, 2014 for Model Number AP5690431 Hi, I have installed this drain pump but can't see where the Orange flap goes. There was nothing like it in the part I pulled out. There's flap in the drain tube coming out of the drain pump, but it looks fine, doesn't seem to need replacing. l saw a mention of the "sump assembly" but since I didn't touch that at all when I removed the old pump, I'm not sure how it's related. Do I have to take apart the circulation motor to get to the sump? Any help here would be very appreciated.
1 Answer Colleen, The orange flap may not be necessary. If the flapper that you show coming out of the drain tube for the pump looks ok with no damage then it would not be required as this is to replace that part if necessary. Read More...
