Frigidaire Dishwasher Repair – Salem, OH (Gallery FGHD2433KF1)

A customer in Salem, OH contacted us about their Frigidaire Gallery dishwasher after new laminate flooring installation. They suspected the floors had swelled due to temperature changes, reducing clearance and requiring the dishwasher legs to be adjusted down about half an inch.

The Problem

The customer had new laminate flooring installed in summer and believed due to temp change the floors swelled enough to make the clearance not enough. They needed to have the legs adjusted down about 1/2 inch.

Diagnosis

Upon inspection, we discovered the issue wasn’t just the floor clearance. The circulation pump had bad bearings, which was affecting the dishwasher’s operation along with the leveling problem caused by the floor changes.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: 154844101 — Motor Kit FIA (circulation pump)
• Work performed: Replaced the circulation pump with bad bearings and releveled the dishwasher
• Result: Dishwasher now operates properly with correct clearance and functioning circulation system

Is It Worth Repairing?

The Frigidaire Gallery FGHD2433KF1 is a solid mid-range dishwasher that typically provides good service life. Circulation pump failures aren’t uncommon as dishwashers age, but this model generally responds well to pump replacement. Combined with the leveling adjustment needed after flooring changes, this repair restores the unit to full functionality.

Maintenance Tips for Frigidaire Gallery Dishwashers

• Run the dishwasher regularly even when not full — circulation pumps need regular operation to prevent bearing deterioration
• Check and clean the bottom filter monthly to prevent debris from reaching the circulation pump
• After home renovations like flooring replacement, have the dishwasher releveled to prevent strain on internal components
