Every code

Every Frigidaire washer code: what it means and what to do

Frigidaire washer code E1

Frigidaire states E1 means water is not entering the washer, or the water fill time is slow.

Frigidaire directs checking the lid is not open, then fully opening both hot and cold faucets.

Frigidaire's own steps: check supply pressure, straighten kinked inlet hoses, disconnect the hoses and clean the filter screens, and check for water leaking from the tub.

Frigidaire washer code E2

Frigidaire states E2 means water takes too long to drain, or is not draining properly.

Check the drain hose for kinks and confirm it is not pushed too far into the standpipe.

Clear the drain restriction; Frigidaire directs scheduling service if the code persists.

Frigidaire washer code E3

Frigidaire states E3 means the wash lid is either open or the lid lock failed.

Frigidaire directs checking the lid is completely closed and that the unit is level.

Frigidaire states that if the lid does not lock after starting, the lid lock or circuit board may have failed — within 30 days of installation they direct you back to the installer, after that to service.

Frigidaire washer code E4

Frigidaire states E4 means the unit is out of balance during spin operation.

Open the lid and check how the load is distributed in the basket.

Redistribute the load evenly and restart the spin; a repeatedly unbalanced load usually means overloading or a single heavy item.

Frigidaire washer code E5

Frigidaire states E5 means the unit is not level.

Frigidaire directs checking the unit is level and not leaned back.

Adjust the levelling legs to level the unit; Frigidaire refers to the use and care manual for the model's procedure.

Frigidaire washer code F2

Frigidaire states F2 indicates there is too much soap or the wrong type of soap — suds often leak out or overflow.

Check which detergent is in use and how much.

Frigidaire's steps: use high-efficiency detergent, reduce the amount, and run an empty Quick Wash cycle to clean the unit.
