Just recently, my Frigidaire dishwasher is not cleaning the dishes. Washing arms are moving, water temp is hot. Pulled out the trap around the lower arm and removed some gunk but still no luck. Are there more areas I should be looking at for clogs? Any help is appreciated. Also, what is the life expectancy of a dishwasher? Think this one is getting close to 10 yrs old.

It's better if you'll open a new thread in "Washer repair" section and post the complete model number of the washer and full description on the problem. Gene.

The model number you posted is incomplete. The link you posted is for the Whirlpool Duet Washer dispenser actuator assembly. Gene.

Hi Dave, Quote:...Washing arms are moving... Are they moving under the water pressure or when you turned them manually? Can you hear the wash pump running when it comes to the wash cycle? What is the water level inside the dishwasher? Gene.

Moving under water pressure and can hear the water pump running. Water is being sprayed to top rack. Water level is appx 1/8" if I measure near the heater bar/element and 3/4 to 1" in the center.
The water is lukewarm during the first part of the wash cycle. When it progresses and goes past 'light wash' then it is a little warmer. Heating element is cold during first phase but hot during second. Didn't know if it should be hot for both.
