Frigidaire Washer beeping/alarm sounding

When your Frigidaire washer is beeping, keeps beeping, or the washing machine alarm is sounding, check the display for a fault code first. The code usually identifies the condition causing the washer beeping and points to the correct repair in the owner's manual or service information. A recent power outage is another common cause. The display may show a code such as PO or PF, and switching the washer's circuit breaker off for a few minutes before turning it back on can reset the alarm. A power surge or temporary electronic glitch can also make a washing machine beep randomly. Unplug the washer for several minutes, then reconnect it, or reset the circuit breaker. If the beeping returns after a reset, inspect the control board, user interface board, timer, and wire harness for a fault indicated by the code. Some Frigidaire models may also require pressing a specific control-panel button to clear the alarm. Enter your washer's model number on Repair Clinic to find the exact replacement part for your specific washing machine, including the correct Frigidaire control board or timer when a component has failed.

01 - Check Fault Codes

When a washer is beeping, a fault code will usually be displayed to help diagnose the issue. Refer to the owner's manual or do an on-line search for fault code designations and possible solutions.

02 - Power outage reset

After a power outage the washer display may beep and/or flash a code like PO for power outage or PF for power failure. Try turning the breaker off for a few minutes then back on to reset the washer or refer to the owner's manual for specific resetting information.

03 - Power reset

After a power surge or power outage, washer operation could be temporarily affected, resulting in a beeping or other alarm sound. In most cases you need to press a button to reset the alarm. Also, full operation can sometimes be restored through a power reset by either unplugging the appliance's power cord for a few minutes and then plugging it back in or switching off the circuit breaker for the washer then switching it back on.
