Frigidaire Oven F06 Error Code

Door lock switch circuit fault

What this error means

F06 means lock position feedback failed verification.

How F06 is detected

When F06 appears on a Frigidaire oven, the control board has confirmed that water did not leave the machine within the programmed drain window. On Frigidaire FGEH3047VF, Frigidaire FPEH3077RF, and similar variants, the drain pump runs for a fixed interval—often three to seven minutes on washers and dishwashers—while a pressure switch or turbidity sensor verifies the tub or sump is empty. If water remains, the cycle stops to prevent spin with a full tub or overflow on the next fill.

Most F06 calls are resolved without parts: move latch manually when cool. Restricted drain paths mimic pump failure because the impeller spins against a blocked hose or filter. Document whether the pump hums audibly during the drain step; a humming pump with no water movement points to a clogged filter or kinked hose, while silence may indicate a failed pump motor or loose wiring at the harness.

After clearing blockages, run a short cycle and listen at the drain hose for steady water flow. If F06 returns on the next load with a clean filter and straight hose, measure resistance at the pump motor connector per the service manual for your model before ordering a replacement pump assembly.

Common causes

  • Switch stuck after clean
  • Harness unplugged
  • Failed latch switches
  • ERC misread

Step-by-step fixes

  1. 1Move latch manually when cool
  2. 2Reseat latch harness
  3. 3Inspect switches on motor
  4. 4Short bake before self-clean

When to call a technician

Latch assembly when switches test bad.

Affected models

  • Frigidaire FGEH3047VF
  • Frigidaire FPEH3077RF
  • Frigidaire GCFE3067AF

Prevention & maintenance

  • Clean drain filters and hose terminations monthly on high-use ovens to prevent F06 from lint and food debris buildup.
  • Record when F06 appears in the cycle and whether it clears after a 60-second power reset on your Frigidaire oven—that detail speeds diagnosis if you call service.
  • Keep the model and serial number from the rating plate when ordering parts for F06; Frigidaire uses multiple revisions with different harness lengths and board firmware.
  • Photograph wiring connector orientation before disconnecting any component while troubleshooting F06; reversed plugs on pumps and valves cause immediate repeat faults.
