I have a frigidaire FRFW model washer that keeps beeping when it's plugged in. All the lights along the right side blink 9 times and then pause then 9 times then pause. Washer won't run.

I just had the same E90 code with my "good model" Frigidaire washer. It beeps 9 times, then pauses and repeats. Nothing worked as far as resetting, unplugging,etc. HOWEVER, I saw this guy's video and his "hairdryer technique" worked perfectly.

I took it a step further by not only removing the two screws from the back of washer and the top cover, but also removing the front panel w/buttons by taking off two scews in front top corners and three scews inside the detergent drawer (take drawer out first). I moved the hairdryer back and forth over all the wire harnesses for about a minute, plugged it back in and it beeped once like normal. Put it all back together and it's running a load of wash now!! Good luck.

    SOURCE: Frigidaire washer ftf2140fs2 lights on the right side keep beeping washer wont start

    Hello 2cats - First, is the drain pump making a humming noise? If so, the unit could possibly have a restriction in the drain line. Try setting the cycle to spin only and verify if water pumps out. Other possibilities could be a faulty door lock, timer, pump, or control board not communicating correctly. In this case I would contact a professional to move forward accurately to properly diagnose and repair the washer.

    Why are frigdaire front loader all leg ligts on right side blinks and beeps all the time

    Thanks for your inquiry, Barbara Williams!

    I understand that the lights on your Frigidaire washer are blinking and beeping. It sounds like your washer is providing a set of error codes. Your control panel may need to be replaced. I would recommend contacting a professional technician for proper diagnosis to be completed to avoid any unnecessary part purchases. Hope this is helpful. -Matt

    Code in digital display does not have a E in front of it

    Please let me know if you can get a number after this - if so what number shows up?


    Model differences:
    • Better models have a digital readout display
    • Good models do not have a digital readout display
    In the Better Models line, the failure codes will appear in the display as an E followed by two numbers, a number and a letter
    or two letters. The control will beep and the Door Lock, Wash, Rinse, Final Spin and Control indicator lights will flash.
    Example: E14. To stop the flashing and beeping, the customer may touch the Pause Cancel button. The error code remains
    stored in the control but once the problem is corrected, it does not effect the operation of the washer. If the failure is something
    that the customer can correct (such as the water faucets being turned off), the washer will operate normally the next time it is
    started.
    In the Good Models line, the control signals the failure code by flashing the five indicator lights of Door Lock, Wash, Rinse,
    Final Spin and Control for the first number or letter after the E and the Start indicator light for the second number or letter
    after the E. When a failure occurs, the washer stops or pauses and the control beeps and flashes the five indicator lights to tell
    the customer that a failure has occurred. To stop the flashing and beeping, the customer may touch the Pause Cancel button.
    The error code remains stored in the control but once the problem is corrected, it does not effect the operation of the washer.
    If the failure is something that the customer can correct (such as the water faucets being turned off), the washer will operate
    normally the next time it is started.
    To recall an error code,
    • Wake the machine by pressing any button
    • Wait 5 seconds
    • Press and hold the Start and Pause Cancel buttons simultaneously
    • All LEDs will go blank and after a few seconds the control will signal the stored code using audible beeps and blinking
    LEDs. The control will repeatedly signal the code, as long as the Start and Pause Cancel buttons are pressed.
    A two-second pause between repeats affords you the ability to make accurate counts to identify the correct error codes.
    Please Note the following...... on a small number of washers with serial number prefix XC4,
    if the previous procedure does not perform as specified, follow the option below:
    • Follow all previous steps but instead of pressing Start and Pause Cancel buttons,
    press and hold Options and Pause Cancel buttons.
    If the washer is a Better Model, the error code will appear in the display. Troubleshoot problem by using charts on the
    following pages.
    If the washer is a Good Model, the five indicator lights of Door Lock, Wash, Rinse, Final Spin and Control will flash the
    number of times for the first digit of the code and the Start indicator light will flash the number of times for the second digit.
    Take
    separate counts of each indicator light, then repeat to confirm in order to be accurate in identifying the proper error code.
    The code is obtained by counting the number of times the lights flash. Example E24: The five indicator lights would flash twice
    indicating the 2 and the START indicator light will flash four times indicating the 4. The five indicator lights and the START
    indicator light start flashing at the same time.
    The control will pause for 2 seconds, then repeat the code as long as the two buttons are pressed and held.
    Note: A letter appearing in the code stands for a number higher than nine:
    A = 10 B = 11 C = 12 D = 13 E = 14 F = 15
    Example Code F1: the first digit would be 15 and the second digit would be 1. If this code would appear on a washer in the
    Good model line, the five indicator lights would blink fifteen times and the START indicator light would blink once.

    WAKE THE WASHER BY PRESSING ANY BUTTON.

    WAIT 5 SECONDS.

    PRESS AND HOLD THE START AND PAUSE/CANCEL BUTTONS SIMULTANEOUSLY.

    ALL LED'S WILL GO BLANK AND AFTER A FEW SECONDS THE CONTROL WILL SIGNAL THE STORED CODE USING AUDIBLE BEEPS AND BLINKING LED'S. THE CONTROL WILL REPEATEDLY SIGNAL THE CODE, AS LONG AS THE START AND PAUSE/CANCEL BUTTONS ARE PRESSED. A TWO-SECOND PAUSE BETWEEN REPEATS AFFORDS YOU THE ABILITY TO MAKE ACCURATE COUNTS TO IDENTIFY THE CORRECT ERROR CODES.


    PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING: ON A SMALL NUMBER OF WASHERS WITH SERIAL

    NUMBER PREFIX XC4, IF THE PREVIOUS PROCEDURE DOES NOT PREFORM AS

    SPECIFIED, FOLLOW THE OPTION BELOW:

    * FOLLOW ALL PREVIOUS STEPS BUT INSTEAD OF PRESSING START AND PAUSE/CANCEL BUTTONS, PRESS AND HOLD OPTIONS AND PAUSE/CANCEL BUTTONS."


    *THE CONTROL WILL PAUSE FOR 2 SECONDS, THEN REPEAT THE CODE AS LONG AS THE TWO BUTTONS ARE PRESSED AND HELD."


    NOTE: A LETTER APPEARING IN THE CODE STANDS FOR A NUMBER HIGHER THAN NINE: A=10 B=11 C=12 D=13 E=14 F=15 "
