Frigidaire Appliance Repair in Denver

A Frigidaire dishwasher that stops mid-cycle usually shows a code starting with i (some 2023 models show the same codes starting with E, such as E10 or E30). The use and care guide pairs each code with a first check. To clear a code, press Cancel or switch the breaker off for 5 minutes; if the code comes back after that reset, Frigidaire says to call service.

• i10, low fill: the dishwasher did not get enough water. Look for a pinched water supply line or a shutoff valve that is not fully open.
• i20, i40 or iF0, not draining: clogged filters or a restricted drain line. Clean both filters and the sump area, check the drain hose for kinks and, if the dishwasher drains into a disposer, make sure the knockout plug was removed at installation. Frigidaire wants the drain hose at least 32 inches from the floor.
• i30, leak in the bottom pan: check for loose connections at the water inlet valve and that the dishwasher is level.
• i50 is a drain or wash motor problem, i60 a water heating problem and iC0 an electronic control problem. If the 5 minute power reset does not clear them, they need a technician.
• Not an error: PF means the power was interrupted (press Start or Cancel), CL or Cd means the door is not closed and latched, and Hd or HO is a heat delay while the water warms, roughly 1 to 2 minutes for each degree.

Frigidaire's range error code guide lists the codes an electric range can show. The first step for most of them is the same: cut the power for up to 30 seconds, by unplugging the range or switching its breaker off and back on.

• F1 is a shorted keypad, and F3, F20 or F26 a communication error between control boards.
• F10 means the oven sensed a higher than normal temperature. Let it cool before using it again; on ovens with Stone-Baked Pizza, check that the Pizza Shield is in the rack position the manual gives, which is position 7 on most models.
• F30 and F31 are an open and a shorted temperature probe; F40 and F41 a cooktop lock out; F90 to F94 a door lock problem.
• Self-clean takes 2 to 4 hours, and the door stays locked until the oven cools, about one more hour. The electric range manual says not to force the door and to give the motorized latch about 15 seconds.
• An oven that does not get hot enough can be low supply voltage or a torn door gasket, according to Frigidaire. A code that comes back after the power reset needs a diagnosis.

Frigidaire ships its refrigerators set to 37°F in the fresh food section and 0°F in the freezer and calls 33 to 47°F and -6 to 6°F acceptable. A new unit takes about 24 hours to stabilize, and Frigidaire says not to adjust the controls during that first day. Before booking a refrigerator repair, check what Frigidaire checks: a dedicated grounded outlet on a 15 or 20 amp breaker, a GFI outlet that has not tripped, vents not blocked by food, and a door gasket that grips a dollar bill. If the unit has run for 24 hours with no cooling, Frigidaire says to schedule service.

For a garage refrigerator, the owner guide says not to install it where the temperature drops below 55°F or rises above 110°F, because the compressor cannot hold temperatures there. That covers many Denver garages in winter.

• No ice: allow 24 hours for the first ice, then check that the dispenser display is not locked (hold for 3 seconds), the water supply is on, the filter is installed and not frozen, and the bin has no ice jam. Frigidaire recommends changing the filter every 6 months.
• DISP or DI SP on the display is an ice jam; HI or H means the compartment has been too warm for over an hour; PF is a power failure; 77 77 is demo mode, cleared by unplugging the unit for 5 minutes.
• SB is Sabbath mode, not a fault. Door Ajar shows after a door has been open more than 5 minutes.

Frigidaire recommends a dedicated circuit for a microwave, not a GFI outlet and not shared with other appliances; a breaker that trips after a surge is the first thing to check when the display is dark. The microwave manual also gives a simple test before a service call: heat 1 cup of water on HIGH for 1 minute and check that the light, the fan and the turntable work and that the water is warm. If any of them fail, check the outlet and the breaker; if those are fine, the microwave needs a technician. Frigidaire is explicit that owners should not try to repair a microwave themselves.

Frigidaire publishes the tag locations. Dishwashers have it on the inside edge of the door or the right side of the tub. Ranges and wall ovens carry it on the oven's interior side trim, the left side panel with the door open, or the front frame of the storage drawer. Top-freezer refrigerators have it on the upper left wall of the fresh food section, French door and side-by-side models on the upper right. Front-load washers carry it on the door trim, top-load washers at the back of the tub opening under the lid, and dryers inside the door opening. Send a photo of the tag with the code on the display.
