I can't thank you enough for your video's. I lost my Dad last year and he was our repairman for everything. It seemed like everything was falling apart after he passed, I'm single so I had no one to call. I realized I was on my own and then I found your video's and it was like my Dad was here. You walked me through it just like he would have and it was fixed just like that! Thank you thank you thank you!! You are the man!
Thank you, I realize that your video is 4 years old but you should know it’s still helping people fix their lousy Frigidaire dishwashers. Very helpful 👍
Lousy lol you do know it's not lousy. It's your lack of dishwasher knowledge that causes issues right. A dishwash is not a dishwasher but as sanitizer. You cannot put greasy dishes in a dishwasher or dishes with food on them inside of a dishwasher or you always get this problem. You have to hand wash first and then put in the dishwasher.
Yup!! Last method worked for me, some sort of build up in that small pipe. So happy I came across this video and didn't have to pull the dishwasher out and take it all apart.
Perfect. My return hose to the garbage disposal was clogged. Unhooked, used a wire hanger, boom. I will eventually unhook and remove from the dishwasher and replace with a brand new when I get time. This was awesome Jonah.
Thank you so much for this. Im a single mom and have nobody to help me when stuff like this happens. Being able to handle home repairs myself makes me feel so good, independent, and saves me so much money!! I appreciate all the videos you post!
Thank you Sir for your life saving video. I tried the first two problem solving methods with no avail. I tried the 3rd one, and Lord and behold, the dishwasher air gap was clogged with 2 pieces of plastic fork and lots of ugly matter. Thank you for saving me a plumber's bill. Needless to say, I am a 67 years old grandma and I did it all by myself. I learned a lot from your video. I will pass on this information to all my single mothers.
THANK YOUUU JONAH!!! I’m on maternity leave and have only been in my new home for 1 week when my dishwasher stopped draining. Hubby was at work, so I decided to give it a go. Thanks to your trial, error, & success video I got my dishwasher drained. Thanks again!!
I don’t usually comment on videos but this worked. Great info too. Step 3 was a kinked hose from too much junk under the sink pushing on the hose. Almost bought a new unit! This saved $$$$ and solved the root of the problem. Also helped me get the filter installed again, for the life of me I could not get the 3 o clock and 6 o clock positions right until your video. Thank you!
Man thank you so much. My dishwasher had been out of action for almost a week. I’d watched dozens of these videos and did step 1 & 2 repeatedly. Even pulled the pump apart to clean that. I’d given up and called a professional. Your video popped up late night and I check the pipes - build up of sludge and now it’s working perfectly again! Thanks again!!
Thank You So Much For Your Video. My dishwasher was not draining. It was hair. I was surprised to see that in there too. The steps to remove the items and screws was a life saver! I couldn't have fixed it without your video!
This video was fantastic for a 73 year old woman who has NEVER in her entire life ever ever ever fixed anything! Jonah is step by step and clear as a bell...I cannot believe that I was able to fix my dishwasher myself! Step by logical step, Jonah explains and demonstrates clearly each move that you must make to accomplish your goal. He is wonderful and clear. Jonah, you are a miracle worker and you saved me time and money and , perhaps my life during COVID! Profuse gratitude to you and THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!!!
@@jonahvlogsdiy4143 Your video helped me in 5he past but this time 8 had a fail:( The water will not drain I tried everything you showed. Is there a reset button under neath all the hardware. Plastic basket, screens and no build up in 5be drain line ant6 last tips before I call the professionals?
Just another satisfied owner that used this vid to quickly locate and fix drain issues. Filters cleaned, and the clog was under the sink! Thanks Jonah!
Thank you Jonah! That fixed my problem. I can hardly wait to tell my fiance when he comes home that I fixed the dishwasher. The look on his face is going to be priceless!
This is an awesome video! I am a 51 year old mom with a house full of non-dish scraping teenagers 😩 After 1 fail the baking soda/vinegar method did the trick!! Thanks so much for this ❤
I'm so glad I didn't use plain old force before finding you. Your video showed so clearly how to remove and replace the glass trap and what it sits in without breaking everything. Thank you so much!!!
@@jonahvlogsdiy4143 Thanks again! I was wondering the same thing about all that non-food stuff in the filter and realized that washing the occasional dish sponge or scrubber in the dishwasher might be a source of lint and fiber. If that's the case, I'm glad the filter is catching some and not just dumping more plastics into the water supply. And thanks to you, it will be easier to check and clean this more often.
I watched several videos trying to figure out how to fix my dishwasher and failed with every one until I saw yours! My dishwasher is currently working perfectly and I'm so grateful!
My dad isn't very handy and neither was my mom. Now in college, I'm glad to have these "dad advice" videos where I can see exactly what I need to get the job done. Thank you! I really appreciate being told what tools I need. I'm glad i found your channel! Much love from College Station!
Thank you! In case any of you have a problem locating the “switch” underneath your home, I recommend grabbing a flash light. I had a knob that said “pull to close” on it. I pulled it and that shut off the water line. Hope this helps someone down the road
You are the man, the last one did the trick! I had cleaned the filter, did the baking soda, changed the drain pump! But it was just the drain hose valve at the end
Well done! Thank you for including the "fails" as well in this final cut. Although they weren't the main issue, they're worth checking regularly to properly maintain our machines.
THANK YOU!! I am a si hole mom with 3 kids and was so worried it was broken for good! You have no idea how much I appreciate you and your wife taking the time to show me this fix ❤️ God bless you both!
For me the 3rd attempt was what led me to figuring out my issue. Same as what was found here. I had a pistachio shell stuck in that drainage tube where it joined with the drain.
Thank you! As my husband and i tried each step, and failed, your optimism to keep going kept us going, and finally the third try worked! Wonderful narration!
OMG THANK YOU! When the baking soda and vinegar solution didn't work, I started looking into purchasing a new dishwasher. But just like you, I check the drain hose and found the clog! Yippee!
I read a lot of articles and watched a few videos and this is the one that worked for me. The third attempt was the answer. Just wanted to drop you a message to say thanks. The dishwasher wasn’t working on Christmas of all time and this saved it.
Yes sir, I love this video. I am glad you showed us all 3 approaches whether they worked or not! I am a scientist and know we can solve most of problems only by "trial and error". I hope you've a gift or a reward after this good job!
Thanks so much for the video. My wife has been doing dishes by hand for a while bless her heart. Your video is a blessing . My wife and I can spend more time together know that we can use our dishwasher once again . God bless you
You just saved me, my fiancée, and my future mother-in-law from buying a new dishwasher! Thank you for showing the whole process, including the failures! For us, it ended up being a clogged drain hose, but going through the other steps left us with a clean machine so I'm not complaining!
Age doesn't matter. I searched for quite a while and follow many (without success) until I found this one. I was clear and concise, and it worked. I am still marvelled that the internet can provide ALL solutions, sometimes you have to poke for a while. I watched the video completely first and then decided to go to all three solutions at the same time rather than have to reassemble and disassemble between attempts. Yup, hair too!
You have just helped me to remove an annoying problem and saved my health. The stuff I found when I took this apart was horrifying. Thank you so very much for this video.
This is the exact video that I have been looking for! I have been fighting with my dishwasher for months. It kept throwing a breaker, and I knew the pump was not working because I had standing water in it whenever I would open the door. I disassembled everything according to your steps and found it absolutely caked with calcium. Three bottles of vinegar and a box of baking soda solved the problem. I want to take everything out again and clean it more thoroughly, but I got it running again. Thanks for posting a "regular guy" video. There aren't many out there.
I appreciate the showing of the fail attempts shows the key process to fixing things failing at fixing them during the process thank you man really helpful
I really appreciate your video. This is my second time fixing my old dishwasher. The first trick works the first time, but not this time. I followed the third trick and that works great. It saves me at least 700 from buying a new dishwasher.
I worked all the three steps, through two afternoons, and finally hailed as you: "hallelujah!" I almost gave up because I didn't dig out too much solid waste in the tubes. But the magic happened as I finished the step 3. Really appreciated of your good nature and detailed instructions!
I forgot to say that I repeated step2 at least three times, which made me crazy and fatigued, before I made up my mind to unscrew the tubes that I was not confident.
Thank you so much for this video. My apartment’s dishwasher has been broken for months, I’ve never thought I could do this. But your instructions were so helpful, and though my model is a little different, every step was practically the same
So I watched your full video. It was very informative. Went down the rabbit hole and cleaned out the basket first. Then you'd cleaned out the drain line that into the garbage disposal. The translucent tubing going to the dishwasher was clogged. In my case. Ran a piece of wire down it and it was full of grease. Thank you for pointing me in the right direction.
Thanks man. Turns out disposable pods dont fully disintegrate and caked up the entire round screen. That lint, hair, food and grease will.most definitely clog them suckers up. 👌🤙🏻
Thank you for this video! I took my dishwasher apart to clean in and I wasn't paying close enough attention to see exactly how it should go back together. Your descriptive explanation helped me get it reassembled. I appreciate your sharing this!
I found your video tonight . Hubby is working, I am tired of doing dishes so I had nothing to lose in trying to take apart my dishwasher. It wasn’t draining. I followed your directions, even had the same failures!! 🤣🤣🤣 but followed you right through to the end (broke my nail lol) and lo and behold it drained!! I am so proud of myself and so grateful for your honest and thorough dishwasher drain problem . Boy do I have bragging rights now! 💋💋
Thank you. I'd just like to suggest that anyone who lives in an apartment with cheap plastic pipes-look under the sink at the drain hose first-shine a light on it and you can see a clog. Do that before you take apart anything.
This was informative and funny, my husband and I enjoyed your video, thanks for the tips. I appreciate the fails too, it makes us know you are human. It was good to have options.
Thank you for sharing this..My Dad and I went through the entire video step by step and we also finally fixed the problem with the last step!! And we are SO not handy people so thank you, your video was PERFECT!!! Plus I like that the first couple steps forced me to clean the dishwasher which I never knew how to do before! Feeling accomplished, thank you!
I know right . The previous owner didn’t tell me about the filter in the bottom of the dishwasher. I’ve never had a dishwasher like this before now I can take better care of it.
Thank you Mr. Jonah I had problems with my dishwasher draining I watched your video and I did all the steps that you did and my dishwasher is working properly again thank you so much for sharing it I really do want to call a plumber or dish washer repair man you saved me some money
Your video was the first one to pop up when I was looking for a problem solver for my dishwasher. I did the 3rd suggestion 1st and it completely worked! I have the same exact dishwasher but different year model so it looks exactly the same on the i side. Somehow a thick plastic straw from a cup had got clogged near the end of the drain line. Thanks for the vid. I was getting ready to claim my "broken" dishwasher to my homeowners insurance! You saved me money. Only cost me about 10 minutes of my day. So worth it. Thanks again for the very helpful video!
Thank you! I fixed my problem using your first and second attempts. Luckily didn't have to move onto the pipe cleaning step. The fact that this video has 700k+ views means you are a great teacher and Frigidaire has some re-engineering to do.
Good job. I watched the whole of your video before I started to fix my dishwasher drain issue. I started first to clear up the pipe connection under the sink. I found a big resistance when I inserted the bush to clean up. That's it worked.
Thank you so much!! I have a new dishwasher and I was really mad! I thought I had bought a lemon. I had watched other videos and did all they said but you were the only one that went through the whole process. It was the last step. The drain line going into my sink drain was clogged up. Thank you so much!! I am WOMAN!! Hear my ROAR 😂
Thank you for the great video. I started where you ended and found my problem right away. I’m in a new apartment and haven’t had a garbage disposal in a really long time. My dishwasher drain hose is connected to the garbage disposal. So I ran hot water and the disposal about a minute. Voila! Thank you for all your attempts so I didn’t have to. 😉
Great video man. I just want to personally say thank you. I tried the first 2 tricks before I looked at your video. When I tried the third one my dishwasher immediately started draining. So, thank you so much for saving me money, this veteran appreciates it
Thank you this video helped me realize since I just installed a new garbage disposal that I needed to knock out the plastic plug inside. Finally my kitchen can stop smelling like vegetable water 🤮
I had almost the exact same dishwasher and couldn't figure out why it's not draining, turns out it's the exact same reason as yours, thank you so so much !!!
Hi Jonah! Thank you so much. I watched your video months ago when our dishwasher broke. I wanted to try everything before replacing it but had to replace it anyway due to motor. I learned all about keeping these areas clean by your video... so I just took apart our new dishwasher after a few months of use and there was debris in all those areas. No idea how this happens since I rinse before putting the dishes and items in. Thank you for this video. I feel so good that I cleaned it myself! It will be routine now. God bless you and those you love! Peace, Lynne 🍃🧡🍃
@@jonahvlogsdiy4143 Hi JONAH! What a nice surprise to hear from you. I shared this video with one of my friends last night. She was so happy. It may seem simple to you but it's very important to those of us who have no knowledge on appliances. I am thankful. I am a teacher, a homeschooling Mom, I own a craft and jewelry business, I am a private tutor for children in academics, and I own a dance business. I teach all ages and all abilities to dance! I also have a food pantry and a ministry with my brother. We became a church last year after 6 years. I'm very busy... so learning things on UA-cam helps me and my family. I enjoy learning! Thanks again for the free advice... I asked God to bless you and those you love. Peace, Lynne 🍃🧡🍃
Thanks to this video I fixed the dishwasher! I have never fixed much before, because my husband does it all. Your instructions were simple and easy to follow!
I started the video just to watch how you took up the filter...but ended up finishing it so I could see how to fix the same problem when it inevitably happens...thank you!
Had already done method one and jumped to method 3. Found a lot of crud in the hose which got cleaned out. But it still didn't fix the problem. After the baking soda/vinegar mixture it finally cleaned everything out and it's back to draining. Thanks for the help and fun presentation!!
Thanks for getting all the way to step three! Didn't realize when I installed a new garbage disposal there was a plug in the dishwasher drain receiver... Without your step three I would've been searching for Gremlins! Thanks so much!
I can't thank you enough for your video's. I lost my Dad last year and he was our repairman for everything.

You are so welcome Lori. Sorry to hear about your dad. My dad passed away 2 yrs ago and he was a DIY guy also. I miss him so. Thanks for watching.
Literally this is my second time referencing it💯
I’m sorry for your loss!❤️🙏
Thank you, I realize that your video is 4 years old but you should know it’s still helping people fix their lousy Frigidaire dishwashers. Very helpful 👍

Mine won’t start after getting the water out and cleaning it the lights are on but it doesn’t start
I come across this video and it’s saying 6 years old for me 😊
It’s 2023 and you’re still helping people with this old dishwasher in their apartments. Thank you!
Thank you Barb. I'm always glad my video can still help out.
Perfect. My return hose to the garbage disposal was clogged. Unhooked, used a wire hanger, boom. I will eventually unhook and remove from the dishwasher and replace with a brand new when I get time. This was awesome Jonah.
So glad I could help.
Saw many videos for drain issue and no one come close to detailed and easy explanation your video has.
Glad to hear that. Thank you for the nice comment.
Best video showing HOW to remove the parts AND how to clean Thank You!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching.

So glad my video helped. Always feels good when we can do it ourselves. Thanks for watching.
Dios te bendiga siempre
Based on your video, today I am a hero of our house. Thanks for the great video.
Glad I could help you become a hero in your house!
Thank you Sir for your life saving video. I tried the first two problem solving methods with no avail.

I don’t usually comment on videos but this worked. Great info too. Step 3 was a kinked hose from too much junk under the sink pushing on the hose. Almost bought a new unit!

I really appreciate your video. This is my second time fixing my old dishwasher. The first trick works the first time, but not this time. I followed the third trick and that works great. It saves me at least 700 from buying a new dishwasher.
So glad I did all the tricks.
I worked all the three steps, through two afternoons, and finally hailed as you: "hallelujah!" I almost gave up because I didn't dig out too much solid waste in the tubes. But the magic happened as I finished the step 3. Really appreciated of your good nature and detailed instructions!
I forgot to say that I repeated step2 at least three times, which made me crazy and fatigued, before I made up my mind to unscrew the tubes that I was not confident.
Wonderful! Great it worked out for you. Thanks for watching.
3rd solution was my issue and I watched the entire video before doing anything saved me the first 2 steps of troubleshooting. Thank you
Glad it helped. Thanks for watching.
Thank you so much for this video. My apartment’s dishwasher has been broken for months, I’ve never thought I could do this. But your instructions were so helpful, and though my model is a little different, every step was practically the same
Awesome! So glad my video helped.
I like how you showed your unsuccessful attempts! Great problem solving.
Thank you. Hope my video helped out.
So I watched your full video. It was very informative. Went down the rabbit hole and cleaned out the basket first. Then you'd cleaned out the drain line that into the garbage disposal. The translucent tubing going to the dishwasher was clogged. In my case. Ran a piece of wire down it and it was full of grease. Thank you for pointing me in the right direction.
Thanks for the visit Chris. Glad my video helped.
Thank you for this video!!! Thanks to you, I got to impress my wife and get it right the first time. My problem was in the exact same spot as yours!
Excellent! So glad my video helped.
Thanks man. Turns out disposable pods dont fully disintegrate and caked up the entire round screen. That lint, hair, food and grease will.most definitely clog them suckers up. 👌🤙🏻
Super glad my video helped. Thanks for the visit.
You just saved us having to get a new dishwasher.
A sincere thank you, and plenty of respect is due.
Thank you so much. And thanks for the visit.
Thank you very much
This video help me a lots to check my dishwasher drainage been 5 month wondering why it won’t drained . Now finally got it fixed .
Awesome. Thank you for the visit.
Thank you for this video! I took my dishwasher apart to clean in and I wasn't paying close enough attention to see exactly how it should go back together. Your descriptive explanation helped me get it reassembled. I appreciate your sharing this!
No Problem, Glad my video helped.
I found your video tonight . Hubby is working, I am tired of doing dishes so I had nothing to lose in trying to take apart my dishwasher. It wasn’t draining. I followed your directions, even had the same failures!! 🤣🤣🤣 but followed you right through to the end (broke my nail lol) and lo and behold it drained!! I am so proud of myself and so grateful for your honest and thorough dishwasher drain problem . Boy do I have bragging rights now! 💋💋
Thanks Lois. Super glad my video helped.
This video just saved me from having to call a repairman. Thank you so much for making such an easy-to-follow video!
Glad it helped. Thanks for the visit & stay safe.
You just saved me the price of a repairman. Thank you from North Carolina
You're very welcome, Thank you for the visit.
Thank you. I'd just like to suggest that anyone who lives in an apartment with cheap plastic pipes-look under the sink at the drain hose first-shine a light on it and you can see a clog. Do that before you take apart anything.
good advice.
This was informative and funny, my husband and I enjoyed your video, thanks for the tips. I appreciate the fails too, it makes us know you are human. It was good to have options.
Thank you for watching. Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for sharing this..My Dad and I went through the entire video step by step and we also finally fixed the problem with the last step!! And we are SO not handy people so thank you, your video was PERFECT!!! Plus I like that the first couple steps forced me to clean the dishwasher which I never knew how to do before! Feeling accomplished, thank you!
So glad my video helped. You're welcome.
I know right . The previous owner didn’t tell me about the filter in the bottom of the dishwasher. I’ve never had a dishwasher like this before now I can take better care of it.
Thank you Mr. Jonah I had problems with my dishwasher draining I watched your video and I did all the steps that you did and my dishwasher is working properly again thank you so much for sharing it I really do want to call a plumber or dish washer repair man you saved me some money
Awesome! Always feels good to save money. You're welcome.
Your video was the first one to pop up when I was looking for a problem solver for my dishwasher. I did the 3rd suggestion 1st and it completely worked! I have the same exact dishwasher but different year model so it looks exactly the same on the i side. Somehow a thick plastic straw from a cup had got clogged near the end of the drain line. Thanks for the vid. I was getting ready to claim my "broken" dishwasher to my homeowners insurance! You saved me money. Only cost me about 10 minutes of my day. So worth it. Thanks again for the very helpful video!
Super glad it worked. Thanks for sharing your story.
I just fixed my dishwasher because of this video...thank you Sir!!
You're welcome and thanks for the visit.
Thank you! I fixed my problem using your first and second attempts. Luckily didn't have to move onto the pipe cleaning step. The fact that this video has 700k+ views means you are a great teacher and Frigidaire has some re-engineering to do.
Great job! Thanks for the compliment.
Good job. I watched the whole of your video before I started to fix my dishwasher drain issue. I started first to clear up the pipe connection under the sink. I found a big resistance when I inserted the bush to clean up. That's it worked.
Awesome! Glad it worked out for you. Also glad you started with the third option too. It saved you a lot of time. Thanks for watching.
This was an EXCELLENT WALKTHROUGH and deserves more attention
Thank you and thanks for the visit. Stay safe.
Thank you so much! I did it all by myself without hubby’s help.
Wonderful! So glad my video helped. Thank you for the visit.
Thank you so much!! I have a new dishwasher and I was really mad! I thought I had bought a lemon. I had watched other videos and did all they said but you were the only one that went through the whole process. It was the last step. The drain line going into my sink drain was clogged up. Thank you so much!! I am WOMAN!! Hear my ROAR 😂
Glad it worked Monica.Thank you for sharing your success with our UA-cam viewers.
Thank you for the great video. I started where you ended and found my problem right away. I’m in a new apartment and haven’t had a garbage disposal in a really long time. My dishwasher drain hose is connected to the garbage disposal. So I ran hot water and the disposal about a minute. Voila! Thank you for all your attempts so I didn’t have to. 😉
Glad it helped! Great it worked out for you and thanks for the visit.
Great video man. I just want to personally say thank you. I tried the first 2 tricks before I looked at your video. When I tried the third one my dishwasher immediately started draining. So, thank you so much for saving me money, this veteran appreciates it
So glad my video helped. You're very welcome.
Thank you this video helped me realize since I just installed a new garbage disposal that I needed to knock out the plastic plug inside. Finally my kitchen can stop smelling like vegetable water 🤮
Great to hear my video helped. Yeah we don't want the vegetable smell.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! THIS COMMENT JUST FIXED OUR ISSUE
You nailed the EXACT problem that I was having. Here I go with the fix - THANK YOU!
Glad I could help Eric.
I had almost the exact same dishwasher and couldn't figure out why it's not draining, turns out it's the exact same reason as yours, thank you so so much !!!
Glad I could help! Thanks for watching Kaze
Hi Jonah! Thank you so much. I watched your video months ago when our dishwasher broke. I wanted to try everything before replacing it but had to replace it anyway due to motor. I learned all about keeping these areas clean by your video... so I just took apart our new dishwasher after a few months of use and there was debris in all those areas. No idea how this happens since I rinse before putting the dishes and items in. Thank you for this video. I feel so good that I cleaned it myself! It will be routine now. God bless you and those you love! Peace, Lynne 🍃🧡🍃
Thank you Lynne. So glad my video helped. God Bless.
@@jonahvlogsdiy4143 Hi JONAH! What a nice surprise to hear from you. I shared this video with one of my friends last night. She was so happy. It may seem simple to you but it's very important to those of us who have no knowledge on appliances. I am thankful. I am a teacher, a homeschooling Mom, I own a craft and jewelry business, I am a private tutor for children in academics, and I own a dance business. I teach all ages and all abilities to dance! I also have a food pantry and a ministry with my brother. We became a church last year after 6 years. I'm very busy... so learning things on UA-cam helps me and my family.
I enjoy learning! Thanks again for the free advice... I asked God to bless you and those you love.
Peace, Lynne 🍃🧡🍃
Thanks to this video I fixed the dishwasher! I have never fixed much before, because my husband does it all. Your instructions were simple and easy to follow!
Awesome. Glad I could help!
Dude you are a life saver . Cleaned it out . Took apart the computer part cleaned it now working like a charm
No problem. Glad my video helped bro.
I started the video just to watch how you took up the filter...but ended up finishing it so I could see how to fix the same problem when it inevitably happens...thank you!
You're welcome. Thanks for watching.
Had already done method one and jumped to method 3. Found a lot of crud in the hose which got cleaned out. But it still didn't fix the problem. After the baking soda/vinegar mixture it finally cleaned everything out and it's back to draining. Thanks for the help and fun presentation!!
Good stuff. Im glad if finally worked. Thanks for sharing with our viewers.
Am I ever glad I found this video. it saved me throwing my dishwasher out lol..even though it was 4 years old I have the exact same model..thank you..
You are so welcome! Thank you for the visit.
Thanks for getting all the way to step three! Didn't realize when I installed a new garbage disposal there was a plug in the dishwasher drain receiver... Without your step three I would've been searching for Gremlins! Thanks so much!
So glad it worked out. You're welcome.
Mine too! I was wondering if anyone else discovered that from step three!
I used this today 6/3/23. Worked like a charm. Thank you for saving us some money!
Awesome ! Glad my video saved you some money Debbie.
