Frigidaire Cooktop HE Error Code

VERIFIED

Error code HE
Appliance Cooktop

When HE appears

The signal is a steady HE on the display at a time when the cooking zone is both cold and switched off. It indicates a temperature sensor defect on the older 30-inch ceramic glass induction cooktop in service data sheet 318200282 Rev B.

Corrective actions, technician only

  1. Measure the coil RTD at room temperature. A reading near 1K ohms is expected; if the resistance is wrong, the coil gets replaced.
  2. Replace the generator circuit board.

Sensor codes elsewhere

  • 55 is a sensor break at the right front zone.
  • 77 is a heat sink sensor break.
  • 65 is a right front inductor sensor reading too hot.

Model compatibility: Frigidaire reuses codes across series and model years, so HE may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
