Thank you for your post, campy chaney!
I understand that your Frigidaire washer is displaying an error code of "PAV". "PAV" is not a valid error code, your washer maybe displaying a "PAU" error code. It could be a possible issue with a low light on your LED panel. If it is a "PAU" code that could be an interruption within your cycle. I would suggest performing a reset on your washer and you can do that by flipping the household circuit breaker off for roughly ten minutes. When you restore power to your washer and continue receiving the "PAU" code I would suggest having a professional technician out. This could be a possible problem with your control panel, door latch, or door strike. Since it could be anyone of these underlying having a technician out would help avoid any unnecessary part purchases. Hopefully this information is helpful. -Matt
I appreciate your post, Josh Orenstein!
From my understanding your Frigidaire washer is displaying "PAU" and "E41". "PAU" normally displays when there is an interruption to the cycle and "E41" means the main control board thinks the door switch is open. Either code can display due to a faulty door latch assembly, door strike, or main control board. You can attempt to perform a factory reset by holding down the Start/Pause button and Select button until a signal sounds. Also review the door latch and strike to see if there is any visible damage that could cause a short within the components. If there is no visible damage you may want to consult with a technician for proper diagnosis and repair of your washer. Hope this information is helpful to some degree. -Matt
Hi friend, thanks for your inquiry!
If your washer continues to display an error code of "PAU" it could be an issue with your door lock but if the door strike is not sitting properly within the latch your washer will continue to provide the error code "PAU". Additionally, if your control panel is registering that the door is closed you may continue to experience the "PAU" code. I would recommend having a professional come and properly diagnosis your washer to prevent any unnecessary part purchases. I hope this is helpful. -OOS
Hey friend, thank you for the post!
I see from your post that your Frigidaire washer is displaying a PAU code. Normally means the washer has been paused, which could be cleared be pressing either the cancel button or start button once. If that does not clear the code you could try resetting the appliance by disconnecting power. This could be done one of two ways by either unplugging the washer or flipping the household circuit breaker for ten minutes. Please comment back I would like to know if this information has been helpful. -Matt
Hi
PAU is short for pause; the machine detected something wrong so it paused itself. Unplug it from the wall for a minute and plug it back in, it may reset. Once you plug it back in, it should display a Numerical code. You need to find out what's that error code mean.
Please get back to us if you have further query else please accept the suggestion.
