Questions
about i20.

Can I clear i20 myself?
If the dishwasher is newly installed on a disposer, confirm the knockout plug inside the disposer was removed. If it comes back, it needs a visit.
Why does a new Frigidaire show i20 on its first wash?
When a dishwasher is freshly connected to a disposer, the knockout plug inside the disposer may still be in place. Frigidaire lists removing it as the first check for i20.
Can I reset Frigidaire i20 without calling anyone?
Hold Cancel or switch the breaker off to reset after clearing the trap and checking the hose. If i20 shows again with a clear hose and clean filter, book a visit.
