Error codeF93

Reading F93
The door has stayed locked past the permitted maximum when F93 appears. It is classed as a door lock issue and is shown by current ovens managed by an electronic oven control (EOC).
Why nothing on the oven responds
With the door and panel locked, no cooking function can be reached. Pressing UNLOCK and heeding the screen produces a code that releases them both. A break in power lasting up to 30 seconds, made at the plug or breaker, is the follow-up, and Frigidaire says that clears most false codes.
Technician checks, in order
Wiring from the EOC to the lock motor micro switch.
The latch assembly, and whether the latch cam or the rod and cam of the lock motor bind.
An open lock motor coil. Likewise a micro switch left open so that the motor never stops: the lock motor assembly is then replaced.
The light switch of the oven door, replaced if open.
The EOC, when nothing before it explains the fault.
Related codes
F92 covers a door left open too long, F91 covers repeated unlock attempts and F90 covers unlock time.
Frigidaire range repair in San Francisco
When F93 locks up an oven in San Francisco or the Bay Area, (415) 319-6371 is the line to try. Keep the model number, the code on the display and a note of any resets nearby. See Frigidaire range repair as well.
Model compatibility: Frigidaire reuses codes across series and model years, so F93 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What this code means
F93 means the maximum oven door lock time was exceeded, a door lock issue.
Important safety warning. Do not attempt repairs involving electrical components, gas, water lines, refrigerant or sealed systems. Unplug the appliance if it is safe to reach the outlet, and leave internal diagnostics to a qualified technician.
