Installed this dishwasher in August 2023 as part of a kitchen remodel in my house, complete with a new kitchen sink, sink drain rough-in, new disposal and new water lines (public water, tested and potable). Since day 1 the dishwasher leaves the dishes when finished with a fishy odor. I have to wash the dishes after removing once again by hand to remove the odor. This is ridiculous. I have read others have experienced this and here are the remedies offered by others and Frigidaire that I have tried. Made sure water temperature was hot enough (133f) and ran the sink hot water before the cycle , cleaned the entire interior of dishwasher racks, door, and walls, removed the filter/strainer and cleaned (never dirty or clogged as dishes and glasses sink rinsed and free of any particle before loading), removed and inspected new supplied drain hose, checked back-flow valve on unit, insured high loop properly installed, ran recommended dishwasher cleaner without dishes (numerous times), ran a vinegar cycle through an empty machine, ran a baking soda cycle where baking soda was used to clean walls door and racks then washed in an empty cycle, disposal (new) detergent disinfectant tablets, switched dishwasher detergents between premeasured pieces and simply filling the compartment with loose powder, high sanitize cycle wash"employed . Did I miss anything? This thing is scrap-metal, never again. Oh yes, had an appointment with a Frigidaire area technician. Nice guy, ran several test cycles, said machine operating in proper order. Dishes smell like fish. Out of things to try other than either hand-washing or buying and installing another machine. Won't be a Frigidaire. fish fish fish fish fish fish fish fish fish fish fish fishEmpty after the cycle it stills smells fishy , oh yes, add this, machine always left open a crack when not in use as to allow ventilation, and dishes always removed directly after wash cycle. Maybe I should start the cycle; run around my house 3 times, do 20 push-ups, chant for 2 minutes in front of the machine and re-start. Didn't try that. I'll report back
