ApplianceRange
Quick answer
F8 and F9 report lock motor switch problems on older Frigidaire EOC models.
Model compatibility: Frigidaire has used more than one control platform, so F8 / F9 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language

What F8 and F9 report
