Frigidaire Washer Error Code E32: Meaning and Fix

Reading the washer display
On a washer the code appears on the digital display or as a pattern of flashing cycle lights. Note it exactly, including any dashes or sub-codes, then unplug the washer for five minutes and run a short drain cycle to see whether it returns. 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.

Questions
What does the E32 code mean on a Frigidaire washer?
The water level sensor circuit reads open, so the washer cannot measure fill.
Can I fix the E32 code myself?
Start with the free checks (power reset, connectors, obvious blockages). The likely repair involves the main control board and live-circuit testing, so if the code returns, a qualified technician is the safer call.
How do I clear the E32 code?
Unplug the washer (or switch off its breaker) for five minutes, then plug it back in and run a short rinse or drain cycle. If E32 comes back, the underlying fault is still there; start with this: loose sensor plug.
