Frigidaire Washer E48 Error Code

VERIFIED

Error code E48
Appliance Washer

E48 explained

E48 stands for a door PTC circuit that is closed. Two front-load washers carry it: the FAFW3577KA (older series) and the FAFS4272LR.

How each sheet puts it

  • FAFW3577KA: the console board takes the PTC circuit of the door to be closed.
  • FAFS4272LR: the sensing of the door PTC shows closed.

Next move

Only a technician test is named. If E48 reappears, book service.

Compare

The same circuit reading open is E47. E4A is a sensing problem and E49 a disagreement between door line and door sense.
