Frigidaire Washing Machine EF0 Error Code
Aqua control triggered—leak or over-foaming
What this error means
EF0 on Frigidaire front-load washers means the aqua control sensor in the base pan detected moisture, or excessive foam mimicked a leak. The door may lock and the drain pump can run until the condition clears.
Common causes
- Water in the base pan from a door seal or hose leak
- Too much non-HE detergent creating foam overflow
- Unbalanced load shaking water past the door gasket
- Dispenser drawer leaking during fill
Step-by-step fixes
- 1Unplug and tilt carefully to check for water in the base pan—dry with towels
- 2Switch to HE detergent at the lowest recommended dose
- 3Inspect the gray door boot for tears or debris in the fold
- 4Redistribute laundry and run a Spin+Drain cycle
When to call a technician
Dry pan with recurring EF0 after seal inspection points to inlet valve or tub hose service.
