How to Reset a Frigidaire Dishwasher
Cancel first; breaker-cycle for 60 seconds for stubborn codes; i30 needs a dry pan.
Reset Steps
- 1
Press Cancel and let the unit drain.
- 2
Breaker off 60 seconds if the code persists.
- 3
i30: dry the base pan before any reset attempt will stick.
💡 Good to know: Repeated i30 with a dry pan points to a slow mid-cycle leak — run a cycle with the kick plate off and watch.
If the Code Comes Back
A code that returns after a reset means the underlying fault is still present. Look up your exact code for its causes and step-by-step fix:
i20 Drain problem — water not draining i30 Leak detected in base i10 Water supply problem — insufficient fill PF Power failure — cycle interrupted i40 Clogged filter or sump — restricted water circulation i50 Wash motor / circulation pump and heater assembly fault i60 Water heating failure — water not reaching target temperature iC0 Communication error — touchpad/control not talking to main board
