Frigidaire Dishwasher Splash Shield Parts — Models & Compatibility

If you're seeing water pooling under your Frigidaire dishwasher after cycles, there's a good chance your splash shield has deteriorated. This small but critical component sits at the bottom of the door, preventing water from escaping during the wash cycle. When it fails, you'll notice leaks that seem to come from nowhere — often right after the spray arms kick into high gear.

This hub covers the 154701001 splash shield kit, which fits dozens of Frigidaire, Electrolux, Kenmore, and other brand dishwashers. It's one of the most common leak fixes for these models, and with the right approach, it's something you can tackle in an hour.

Is This the Right Part for Your Model?

Before ordering, you'll need to verify your model number. Open your dishwasher door and look along the top edge or side panel — that's where most manufacturers stamp the model and serial numbers. Cross-reference it against the compatibility list below. The 154701001 kit replaces several older part numbers including 154685101 and 1465007, so if you've got those listed in your manual, this is your replacement.

This part fits the FDB, FGBD, FPID, LFBD, and PLD series dishwashers. If your model starts with any of those prefixes, you're likely in the right place. Still unsure? Call us with your full model number and we'll confirm compatibility.

About This Replacement Splash Shield

The splash shield kit includes both the bottom door gasket and the side splash guards that channel water back into the tub. Over time, these rubber components harden, crack, or lose their seal — especially if you run hot cycles frequently or use harsh detergents. When that happens, water sneaks past during the wash and rinse cycles, dripping onto your floor.

One owner described their repair: "Removed door front, removed bottom door gasket, installed new, a little hard to get it to catch in place but got it. Replaced door gasket and splash guards. Replaced door front. No more leaks." That's the typical experience — getting the gasket seated properly takes some patience, but once it clicks into the channel, it holds firm.

You'll need both a Phillips and flathead screwdriver for this job. Plan for 30 to 60 minutes depending on how many screws are holding your door panel in place. Some models have hidden screws under the kickplate, so don't skip that step.

Installation Overview

Here's the process in brief: remove the door from its hinges (it's easier than working around them), take apart the inner and outer door panels, pull out the old gasket and shields, install the new kit making sure everything seats in its channel, then reassemble. The trickiest part is getting that bottom gasket to catch along the entire length — work from one end to the other, pressing firmly as you go.

If your door gasket is also worn (the one that runs around the entire perimeter), consider replacing it at the same time. You've already got the door apart, and a leaking door gasket can mask whether your splash shield fix worked.

Why This Part Fails

Rubber degrades. That's really all there is to it. High heat, detergent chemicals, and constant flexing during door opening and closing gradually break down the gasket material. You'll notice it starting to feel stiff or seeing visible cracks before it fully fails. Once water starts escaping, it won't fix itself — the seal is compromised and needs replacement.

Some dishwashers go 8-10 years before this part needs attention. Others, especially if they're run on sanitize cycles daily, might need it sooner. If you're seeing leaks and your dishwasher is more than five years old, the splash shield is the first place to look.
