Frigidaire Dryer E24 / E25 Error Code

Thermistor shorted or open on Frigidaire dryers.

E24 / E25

May need a pro

The control thermistor, which reads drum air temperature, is either shorted or open, or its wiring is. Without that reading the control can't manage the heat. Both AppliancePartsPros and Sears PartsDirect put the normal reading at about 50,000 ohms (AppliancePartsPros allows 10% either way), a check for a technician.

Unplug for 5 minutes
Disconnect power, wait 5 minutes, reconnect and run a heated cycle. Watch whether the code returns.
Keep the lint path clean
While you wait for service, clean the lint screen before every load and don't leave the dryer running unattended.

When to call a technician

The thermistor and its wiring are inside the cabinet, so testing and replacement is technician work. If the sensor tests fine, the electronic control is next on the list.
