All Frigidaire dishwasher error codes
| Code | What it means | Guide |
|---|---|---|
| I20 | Vent motor or drying fan circuit faulti20 on Frigidaire dishwashers indicates the vent motor or drying fan circuit failed—the control energized the vent assembly during the dry phase but did not detect proper operation. Dishes may finish wet when i20 appears. | View fix → |
| I30 | Leak detected in base pani30 means water collected in the bottom pan and lifted the styrofoam float. The drain pump may run continuously as an anti-flood measure. | View fix → |

| I50 | Drain pump or wash motor failurei50 means the drain or circulation motor failed to start or report feedback. | View fix → |
| I60 | Heating element circuit faulti60 means the dishwasher could not heat water to the required temperature for wash or dry. | View fix → |
