Error codeF4
ApplianceRange
Quick answer
F4 flags a shorted RTD oven sensor on some older Frigidaire ranges and ovens.
Model compatibility: Frigidaire has used more than one control platform, so F4 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 this code means
Shorted oven sensor (RTD), on older models only.
Legacy code
You will see F4 only on some older Frigidaire models. It stands for a shorted oven sensor (RTD).
F3 versus F4
Older models: F3 for an open probe, F4 for a shorted probe
Current models: F3 alone covers open or shorted, and F4 is never displayed
Technician procedure
Check for shorted wiring between the oven control and the RTD.
Test the RTD’s resistance with the resistance table.
If the resistance is correct and the wiring is good, replace the control.
