Frigidaire FFCD2413UB2A dishwasher Parts

On the Frigidaire FFCD2413UB2A dishwasher, you can usually clear an error code by canceling the current cycle (press and hold Cancel or Start/Cancel for about 3 to 5 seconds) and then restarting a new cycle with the door fully latched. If the code returns, fix the condition that triggered it.

• Press and hold Cancel or Start/Cancel for 3 to 5 seconds until the cycle stops.
• Wait 30 seconds, then select a cycle and press Start.
• Confirm the door latch is fully engaged (a weak latch can bring the code right back).
• If the dishwasher is unresponsive, turn power off at the breaker for 5 minutes, then restore power.
• Check the model-specific reset and error-code behavior in the FFCD2413UB2A user manual.

Many Frigidaire dishwasher error codes are symptoms of a drain, fill, or heating issue. These checks solve the majority of repeat codes:

• Drain problems: Clean the sump area and filter, and make sure the drain path is clear.
• Filter restriction: Remove and rinse the dishwasher filter 5304532206.
• Drain hose issues: Look for kinks, clogs, or a low loop problem in the dishwasher drain hose 807117001.
• Not filling: Verify the water supply valve is open; a failing dishwasher water inlet valve 807047901 can also cause fill-related codes.
• Not draining: If you hear humming but no drain flow, the drain pump a A00126401 is a common fix.

Clearing the code gets the dishwasher running again, but repeat error codes on the FFCD2413UB2A usually point to a real condition (restricted filter, drain blockage, fill problem, or a component like a pump or inlet valve). Addressing the cause prevents leaks, poor cleaning, and cycle interruptions.

For the Frigidaire FFCD2413UB2A dishwasher, the most common issue we see is a drain problem: water left in the bottom after the cycle. In many cases, the fix is clearing a clog in the filter area or drain path, then confirming the drain pump is working.

• Cancel the cycle and run a drain function; listen for the drain pump running.
• Remove and clean the filter and sump area; clear food debris, labels, and glass.
• Check the drain hose routing for kinks and make sure it has a proper high loop.
• If connected to a garbage disposal, confirm the disposal inlet knockout plug was removed.
• Verify the sink drain is not backing up (a slow sink drain often means a shared clog).

For model-specific access and cleaning steps, follow the FFCD2413UB2A manual.

If the drain path is clear but the dishwasher still will not drain, these parts are common suspects:

• Drain pump (hums, runs weakly, or will not run): drain pump a A00126401
• Drain hose (collapsed, split, or internally blocked): dishwasher drain hose 807117001
• Filter (damaged or not sealing, letting debris reach the pump): dishwasher filter 5304532206

Drain issues can cause odors, poor cleaning, and standing water that re-deposits soil on dishes. Fixing the drain path early also helps protect the pump and motor assembly from debris damage.

To force a drain on your Frigidaire dishwasher model FFCD2413UB2A, cancel the cycle so the control starts a drain-out. On most Frigidaire models, pressing and holding Start/Cancel for about 3 to 5 seconds begins the drain, then the dishwasher drains after you close the door (if it is a door-latch model). For model-specific button behavior, follow the steps in the FFCD2413UB2A owner’s manual.

• Press and hold Start/Cancel for 3 to 5 seconds.
• Watch for indicator lights or a change in display that confirms cancel/drain.
• Close the door fully so the drain pump can run.
• Listen for the drain pump; you should hear water moving out within 10 to 30 seconds.
• Check the sink connection; a loose drain hose can discharge water immediately when the door closes.

These checks solve most “won’t drain” complaints on FFCD2413UB2A-STYLE dishwashers:

• Air gap or garbage disposal: Clear the air gap (if used) and make sure the disposal inlet knockout was removed.
• Drain hose routing: Fix kinks and confirm a proper high loop under the counter.
• Filter and sump: Clean debris from the filter area; a clogged filter can restrict flow.
• Drain pump: If the pump hums but does not move water, inspect the impeller area; replacement is typically the drain pump a A00126401.
• Control and safety inputs: If the unit cancels but never runs the pump, check for standing water triggering the float system; the dishwasher float switch 154773201 is a common drain-related safety input.

Forcing a drain clears standing water so you can safely troubleshoot clogs, prevent odors, and confirm whether the issue is in the dishwasher (filter, drain pump) or in the home drain connection (air gap, disposal, sink trap).

If your Frigidaire FFCD2413UB2A dishwasher has power but will not start, stops mid-cycle, runs the wrong cycle, or the buttons act dead or random, the electronic control board is a strong suspect after you rule out a door-latch problem and do a proper reset. Use the FFCD2413UB2A owner’s manual to confirm the correct reset and indicator behavior.

• Confirm the door closes fully and latches; an unlatched door can look like a dead control.
• Reset power at the breaker for 5 minutes, then restore power.
• Press each key one at a time; a stuck key can lock out other buttons.
• Start a normal cycle and listen for fill; no fill points to a fill issue, not always the board.
• Check for moisture around the control area; moisture can cause intermittent keypad or board behavior.

• No water entering: dishwasher water inlet valve 807047901
• Overfill protection stopping fill: dishwasher float switch 154773201
• No heat or poor drying: Frigidaire dishwasher heating element 154825001

The control board is a higher-cost repair. Ruling out latch, reset, and common fill or heat failures helps you fix the real problem the first time.
