Frigidaire washer codes
Safety: Unplug the washer before touching the pump filter, hoses or drum. Water left inside can be hot and heavy, so put towels down first.
E1: Long fill time
E1 on a Frigidaire top load washer means water is not entering the washer or the fill is too slow.
Likely causes- Hot or cold faucet not fully open
- Low water pressure
- Kinked inlet hoses
- Clogged hose filter screens
- Lid open
- Close the lid.
- Open both faucets fully.
- Straighten kinked hoses.
- With the faucets off, disconnect the hoses and clean the screens.
- Water pressure is good and it still will not fill
- Water leaks from the tub

E2: Long drain time
E2 on a Frigidaire top load washer means water takes too long to drain or is not draining.
Likely causes- Kinked or clogged drain hose
- Standpipe height wrong
- Lid open (the washer will not spin with the lid open)
- Drain pump problem
- Check the fuse or breaker.
- Close the lid and press Start/Pause.
- Straighten or unclog the drain hose.
- Check the standpipe height in your installation guide.
- The hose is clear and it still will not drain

Frigidaire range / oven codes
Safety: Do not remove panels or work on wiring. A breaker reset is the only power step an owner should do. On a gas range, if you smell gas, do not switch anything on or off; leave and call your gas company from outside.
F10: Thermal runaway (oven too hot)
F10 on a Frigidaire range or wall oven means the oven is detecting higher than normal temperatures. Frigidaire calls it a built-in safety alert. On Stone-Baked Pizza ovens it can be caused by the pizza shield being on the wrong rack.
Likely causes- Pizza shield in the wrong rack position (Stone-Baked Pizza models)
- Oven sensor fault
- Control or relay fault
- Turn off the oven and let it cool before using it again.
- On Stone-Baked Pizza models, confirm the rack and pizza shield are in the position your manual shows (often rack 7), then reset.
- Reset by unplugging for 30 seconds or switching the breaker off and on.
- F10 returns after cooling and a reset
- The oven overheats or will not turn off

F30: Oven sensor (probe) circuit open
F30 means Frigidaire's control sees an open oven temperature probe circuit, so it cannot read the oven temperature.
Likely causes- Failed oven temperature sensor
- Loose or damaged sensor wiring
- Control board fault
- Reset by unplugging for 30 seconds or switching the breaker off and back on.
- F30 returns after the reset

F90 (also shown as F91, F92, F93, F94): Door lock issue
F90 through F94 on a Frigidaire range point to a door lock issue.
Likely causes- Door lock motor or switch fault
- Door locked after self clean
- Control fault
- Press UNLOCK and follow the steps on the screen.
- Disconnect power for up to 30 seconds (unplug or flip the breaker), then restore it. Frigidaire says this clears most false codes.
- Do not force the door.
- The door stays locked or the code returns
