Possible Causes
Corrupted control board memory, incorrect mode configuration, failed main control board, power surge damage
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Disconnect power before opening the unit.
Steps:
- 1. Hard reset: Unplug the air conditioner for at least 15 minutes to allow capacitors to discharge and the control to fully reset. Plug back in and test.
- 2. Restore factory settings: On some Frigidaire models, holding specific buttons (e.g., Reset Filter + Mode) for several seconds can reset settings. Refer to your user manual for the exact procedure.
- 3. Check for surge damage: Inspect the main control board for burn marks or swollen components. If present, the board must be replaced.
- 4. Replace main PCB: If E7 persists after reset and there is no visible damage, the internal memory (EEPROM) may be corrupted. Replace the main control board with a Frigidaire-compatible part.
Tip: Use a surge protector rated for air conditioners to prevent future control board damage from power spikes.
