    [FIXED] Can you clean a Frigidaire vent assy

    Model Number: FGHD2433KF
    Brand: Frigidaire
    Age: 6-10 years

    Hi,
    I read the threads about the UO ER on Frigidaire dishwashers and took out the vent assy to replace it. I see that the vent is really dirty -- has white grime. Can I try first to clean it before replacing it with a new one, or is there no way to clean it because you can't get it wet, as there are wires?

    You can try to clean it, but the vent is not designed to be taken apart and cleaned.
