Frigidaire CL error code

Lid opened with the control lock on

The lid was open for more than 20 seconds while the control lock was on.

Worth repairing?

Not a fault

Nothing to repair. It's a safety lock doing its job.

Can you do it yourself?

Very easy

About 2 minutes

Before you start

  • Low risk: nothing to open up.

What to check, in order

  1. Turn the washer off

    Switch it off before anything else.

  2. Turn off the control lock

    How you do it depends on the model. Your use & care guide shows how on yours.

When to call an engineer

Only if the code comes back with the control lock off. Within 30 days of installation, contact the installer; after that, schedule service.
