Frigidaire Washer - E31 Error Code

The washer detected a pressure sensor fault.

Meaning

The washer detected a pressure sensor fault.

The Frigidaire E31 error code indicates that the washerโ€™s pressure sensor (water level sensor) is sending invalid or unstable readings. The pressure sensor monitors water level throughout the cycle. If the control board receives values that are out of range, inconsistent, or contradictory, it triggers E31 to prevent overfilling, underfilling, or unsafe heating.

Symptoms

  • Washer stops during fill or wash
  • Water level fluctuates unexpectedly
  • E31 appears early in the cycle
