Reading the dryer display

On a dryer the code shows in the time-remaining window or as blinking status lights. Write down the characters before you press anything, because starting a new cycle usually clears the display. Frigidaire models show E, F or i codes depending on the appliance.

Frigidaire is an Electrolux brand and shares platforms with the Electrolux line. Washers and dryers use E codes, ranges use F codes, dishwashers use i codes, and refrigerators show SY codes. The codes apply to model numbers such as FGID2466QF, FFBD2412SW and FFRE4120SW; check the label on your unit to confirm yours.

What causes E25

How to fix it

  1. Clean the lint screen, duct and exterior vent.
  2. Inspect the sensor wiring for rubbed insulation.
  3. Replace the thermistor if resistance is out of range.
  4. Run a short test cycle to confirm the code does not come back.

Questions

What does the E25 code mean on a Frigidaire dryer?

The control sees a heat-sensor reading that cannot be real, such as extreme cold or heat, and stops heating.

Can I fix the E25 code myself?

Often yes. The most likely repair is the dryer thermistor, a part most owners can swap with basic hand tools after unplugging the appliance, and it is usually quicker than a service visit.

How do I clear the E25 code?

Unplug the dryer or switch off its breaker for five minutes, then restart a short timed-dry cycle. If E25 comes back, the underlying fault is still there; start with this: thermistor failing.
