Frigidaire Dryer · Code E24 / E25

Frigidaire Dryer E24 code: Temperature sensor (thermistor) fault

The dryer's temperature sensor circuit is reading shorted or open, so the control can't manage the heat properly.

Most common causes

  1. Failed thermistor (temperature sensor)
  2. Loose or damaged wiring to the sensor
  3. Control board fault

What you can safely check yourself

  1. Unplug the dryer (or turn off its breaker) for a few minutes, then restore power and try again.
  2. Clean the lint filter and check that the vent isn't blocked, since overheating stresses the sensor.

Unplug the appliance before moving or cleaning anything. Do not open panels, touch gas connections or bypass safety switches.
