Hello, welcome to FixYa. I understand you have a Frigidaire washer with an error code E41, correct ? Can you reply and include the complete model number ? This will let me speak specifically about your washer instead of generalizing...which can be fine, but specifics are always better. I'll watch for your reply and go from there. Thank you. Regards, Macmarkus :)
Hello again,
Thank you for replying, that number is close enough, 6000series Affinity. Based on the info you provided, specifically the E41 error, It sounds like the unit is detecting an unlocked door, loose wire, or the control itself is bad.
(E41= Shorted or open. Defective door lock assembly.Around 1500Ohms. Defective control board.)
The dr simply indicates the control thinks you're trying to start the machine while it has an open door...that is just just a side affect of the door lock assembly.
Here's how to check...
**Unplug the unit from the wall first...safety first**
Remove the door lock assembly and measure the resistance of the PTC. Should get a reading of around 1500ohms.
Attached here is a great tutorial for accessing the assembly for testing and replacing.

Let me know if you need further assistance going forward or if anything is not clear. I also have a service manual I can provide if you want to reply with an email address so I can send it as a "pdf" attachment.
Thank's again for visiting FixYa today. Good luck.

Macmarkus :)
Hi Mark. I have the same problem. E41 Error Could send this PDF to learn how to solve the problem. randr.appliances @ hotmail.com I saw in another post, they do jam the door switch to see if the problem is the door switch or control bord

Thank you for your inquiry, Lucie!
From what you have described your Frigidaire oven lock is stuck open and you are receiving error codes "F9" and "DR". The "F9" error code stands for runaway temperature (overheating). This could be an issue with your RTD (Resistance Temperature Detector) or the EOC (Electronic Oven Control). I would recommend performing a reset on your oven and you can do that by disconnecting from your oven for ten minutes. The "DR" code means that the door is not closed or the door latch is not recognizing the door is closed. This could be an issue with your door latch or control panel. If the reset does not help correct your issues I would recommend having a professional technician out to perform a proper diagnosis and repair. Best of luck! -Matt
I appreciate your post, Josh Orenstein!
From my understanding your Frigidaire washer is displaying "PAU" and "E41". "PAU" normally displays when there is an interruption to the cycle and "E41" means the main control board thinks the door switch is open. Either code can display due to a faulty door latch assembly, door strike, or main control board. You can attempt to perform a factory reset by holding down the Start/Pause button and Select button until a signal sounds. Also review the door latch and strike to see if there is any visible damage that could cause a short within the components. If there is no visible damage you may want to consult with a technician for proper diagnosis and repair of your washer. Hope this information is helpful to some degree. -Matt
Hello shadow183 - Typically DR is a generic door error code. Possibly the door is not shutting properly, either it is sagging and not latching properly or the door sensor and the main control board are not communicating correctly. You would need this to be diagnosed by a professional technician in order to properly repair the machine.
Hello zabbster - Typically the DR or DO error code indicates that the door switch is not closed. Make sure that the door lock is completely closed. If the door is closed, make sure the door latch is not broken. If the latch is broken, you may possibly need to replace the door lock switch.
