Reading the range display

On a range or oven the fault appears on the clock or oven display, often with a beep. Press Cancel or Clear once to silence it, and write the code down first. 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 F2

Failed oven temperature sensor (RTD)
Sensor wiring problem
Welded relay contact

How to fix it

Let the oven cool and clear the code.
Look for signs of overheating such as scorched food or discoloured racks.
Check the sensor probe and connector at the rear wall.
Replace the temperature sensor, then the control if the oven truly overheats.

Questions

What does the F2 code mean on a Frigidaire range?

The control believes the oven is running over its safe temperature, most often from a faulty sensor.

Can I fix the F2 code myself?

Start with the free checks (power reset, connectors, obvious blockages). The likely repair involves the oven temperature sensor and live-circuit testing, so if the code returns, a qualified technician is the safer call.

How do I clear the F2 code?

Press Clear/Off, then cut power to the oven at the breaker for five minutes before restoring it. If F2 comes back, the underlying fault is still there; start with this: failed oven temperature sensor (RTD).
