Frigidaire Oven Error Codes: What They Mean and How to Fix Them
Frigidaire ranges and wall ovens show codes in the oven display, usually with a beep. The list below comes from Frigidaire's guide for its electric ranges; gas and older models can use different codes, so check your owner's manual too. To reset, turn off the breaker for at least 30 seconds, then restore power. If a code clears and comes back, that tells you a part is failing. If you ever smell gas, do not touch any switches or the oven controls. Leave the home right away and call your gas utility from outside.

How to clear the code
Turn off the range's breaker for at least 30 seconds, then turn it back on and set the clock. For a cooktop lock dash, hold OFF for 6 seconds instead. If your range was installed within the last 30 days and shows a code, Frigidaire suggests contacting the installer first, since connection problems are common on new installs.
Overheating codes and gas safety
F10 is the one Frigidaire code to take seriously right away. It means the control has seen the oven temperature climb past what it asked for, which can trace to a failed probe or a relay on the control board that stays closed. Shut the breaker off, keep the door closed while it cools, and do not use the oven again until it has been checked.
On a Frigidaire gas range, never try to light a burner or oven by hand when the electronics show a fault, and do not open panels near the gas valve. If you smell gas, leave right away and call your gas utility from outside the home. Gas repairs belong with a qualified technician.

What does F10 mean on a Frigidaire oven?
F10 means thermal runaway, which is the oven getting hotter than the control intends. Turn it off at the breaker and get it checked before using it again.
How do I fix F30 on a Frigidaire range?
F30 means the temperature probe circuit is open. A breaker reset might clear it briefly, but a repeat code means the probe or its wiring needs to be tested and replaced.
Why is my Frigidaire oven door locked with an F90 code?
F90 to F94 are door lock faults. Let the oven cool, try a breaker reset and do not force the door. If it stays locked, the lock assembly needs service.
Codes and meanings vary by model and model year. Check your owner's manual for your exact model.
