What Hd
actually means.
Hd or HO is not a failure: the Frigidaire is holding the cycle while it heats the water. Colder incoming water means a longer wait, roughly one to two minutes per degree of rise.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from Frigidaire's own guidance for Hd on its dishwashers. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Let the cycle continue; the delay ends when the water reaches temperature.
Run the kitchen hot tap before starting so the dishwasher begins with warmer water.
If Hd sits on the display far longer than usual and the water never warms, book a visit.
Cleared?
No part needed replacing. If the next full cycle still stops partway or leaves water in the tub, treat that as a new problem.
What not to do
Hd is not a heater warning. The machine is doing what the cycle asks.

In Frigidaire's own words
The colder the water is, the longer the delay time will take to heat the water to the proper temperature.
