My frigidaire pro dish washer makes a loud noise goes through cycles but dose not wash anything dose not wash.counts down mins but no wash. no spray wash

Look for a utensil blocking the arm from freely rotating. Look in the blade that rotates too; it pumps the water to the arm that rotates.

The dishwasher runs through it's cycle but does not clean the dishes properly and leaves a cloudy film and smears on the inside of the machine and the dishes

Confirm the wash water is hot
1. Try heated wash(sani wash) if available
2. Run hot water in sink to warm up before starting
3. At least 120 degree Fahrenheit water temperature
Open door check wash arm position start washer for a minute
1. Confirm wash arm has rotated
2. Check for plugged spray tips at either end of wash arm.
3. Use small tweezers to remove
4. Check for rack and dishes interfering with arm rotation
Place cup in upper rack with opening up cycle washer.
1. Confirm that cup quickly fills with water
2. Not washing check water level in tub mim 1 1/2 inch
Discontinue use of rinse/dry liquid additive.
1. Confirm rinse/dry additive not leaking from dispenser into tub
2. Washer detergent contains sparkle additive and too much sparkle/rinses/dry additive will coat dishes
3. Try alternative wash detergent that contains minimal rinse/dry additive and use without liquid rinse/dry additive.
It will take several wash cycles after the elimination of rinse/dry to purge the oily film from dishes and machine..
If success "joy" is achieved with no additives then cautiously add back wash detergent with additives. Additives are important to facilitate drying and protecting the glassware china from leaching. The leaching process permanently etches the surface of glassware leaving a cloudy appearance.

Why are the items on bottom rack not being cleaned properly

If is clean dishes in the upper basket, I conclude that the pump produces enough pressure what means that the lower spray arm for some reason does not rotate and because that washing result is bad. Before washing I would check the lower spray arm rotates freely and after that open the door during washing and check if the lower spray arm rotates. Sometimes, the holes in the spray arm clog and disable turning which leads to poor washing results in the lower basket.

My Whirlpool Quiet Partner II does not clean the upper rack of dishes properly. They are greasy. I have checked the top spray arm for blockages. There were none. I am fairly certain that water is

Make sure the center loading is not obstructing the water jet to the top shelf. Top shelf is only for glasses and saucers , use Jet-Dry .Pre rinse and clean bottom pan strainer from dirt debris.

The dish washer is taking ages to wash and it not clean ing dishes well

ok so If your dishwasher has worked fine in the past but, suddenly, your dishes aren't clean after the dishwasher completes all cycles:
1) Check your water heater's temperature dial to be sure it hasn't been changed recently.
2) Be sure dishes haven't prevented the detergent dispenser from opening properly during the wash cycles or kept the spray arms from turning, the lower arm from rising, or the spray from reaching the upper rack's dishes.
3) During the wash cycle, listen to the spray arm spinning inside. If it seems to be spinning poorly, clean out the spray holes in the spray arm(s) with a stiff piece of wire; wait for the machine to cool, and then remove the spray arm(s) by unscrewing the hub cap and lifting the arm(s) off Regards Gizokieth

Dirty dishes

if water comes into machine then valve is ok.
open machine when in cycle and look to see if spray arms are rotating
if not, then take out and clean.
spray arms only rotate with water jetting out of angled nozzles at end and if these are blocked then no rotation and poor wash

If it is under warranty, then let your seller know. If you know that both arms are supposed to rotate at the same time, it may be that one of the cogs has become misaligned, as in slipped its teeth, so not engaging with the cog arm. It will take somebody who can understand mechanics to determine this. If both arms rotate counter to each other, yet one does not, and I'm guessing it's the top one, then it has possibly slipped in its mooring on the shaft, and needs to be re-seated, and the locking screw tightened, so that it locks onto the central shaft cog.
Hope that sheds some light on your darkness.
