Joe March 20, 2013 for Model Number frididaire fghd2433KF1 How do I remove the drain pump on this model?
1 Answer Hello Joe. It is best to uninstall the unit and lay it n it's back. Then there is a locking tab you release and the drain pump motor will twist to remove from the sump. Make sure you unplug the wires from the pump. Read More...
Jerry November 20, 2012 for Model Number fghd2433kbi i replaced the drain pump but still does not drain,can the wires be hooked up wrong
1 Answer Jerry, The A00126401 drain pump is a "A/C" single pole motor, as long as the correct wires are attached to the motor, the location won't affect the the drain, the motor runs in one direction only, when power is applied. Have you checked the drain hose and connections for kinks or clogs ? Read More...
Troy November 03, 2012 for Model Number frigidaire dishwasher dgbd2432kb1 their is standing water in the bottom of the unit, i ran a short rinse cycle to see if it would drain, it skipped a dry, drain cycle and shutdown with water still in the unit and no motor noise, would this be a control panel issue? thank you
1 Answer Troy, Yes it could be a control board issue. But your first check should be the drain pump motor A00126401. The drain pump motor is a more likely issue. Read More...
Wayne August 13, 2012 for Model Number FGHD2433KW1 What is involved in replacing the drain pump on this dishwasher?
1 Answer Hello Wayne, Turn the breaker off to the unit and verify the power is off. Remove the kick panel. The pump is mounted to the bottom of the unit on a plastic bracket. The plastic bracket must be removed from the unit first because the screws that hold the pump to the bracket are not accessible while it is on the unit. Remove the wires to the pump and pull from under the unit. Now remove the bracket from the pump and put the bracket on the new pump in the same fashion it was on the old pump. Now mount the bracket back on the unit. re-attach the wires and re-establish power to the unit. Run it and check for leaks and normal operation. If there are no leaks, reinstall the kick panel.

Tony April 22, 2012 for Model Number fgbd2431kf1 I am working on a Frigidaire dishwasher that will not go into a drain cycle. It goes into the wash cycle, skips the drain cycle and appears to rinse with the same old water. Dishes are dirty and water is old. Any help or suggestions greatly appreciated. Thank you. I forgot to mention I do not hear the pump or motor run when it should be draining.
1 Answer Hello Tony, This sounds like you either have a bad drain pump A00126401, a stopped up drain line, or a control 807024501 that has failed. Read More...
Tom February 13, 2012 for Model Number fghd2433kf1 Grinding sound when running. Can move the pump and it gets quite, I'm thinking the impellar might be bad. Looks easy to change the pump.
1 Answer Hello Tom. If the noise is coming from the pump in the unit, you will need to order and replace the pump A00126401. Hope this helps. Read More...
Jon H January 13, 2012 for Model Number fghd2461kw1 water still inside after cycles are finished. I cleaned screens and tested pump. Impellar on pump spins. Applied small amount of force to impellar and impellar still spins. Could pump not be spinning at correct rpm? Also checked all drains and tubes...Clean as a whistle. Water will even run out bottom if you hold check valve open.
1 Answer Jon, Did you also check the sink or disposal drain connections for clogs ? Does the dishwasher drain at all, under normal operation ? Did you notice if the "vanes" on the impeller were damaged or groud down in certain areas. Disconnect the drain hose from the drain system under the sink, and drain the dishwasher into a bucket, that will get us a beter place to start. Thanks and Good Luck Read More...
