Frigidaire Symptoms and First Checks
- Freezer too cold. Turn the freezer control to a warmer setting, keep food from touching the vents and give it 24 hours to settle. Source: Frigidaire - Freezer Too Cold
- Freezer alarm sounding. The buzzer means the inside has warmed past 20°F, so check that the freezer is level and the door closes and seals, and keep it shut while it recovers. Source: Frigidaire - What does the alarm or "buzzer sound" mean?
Reading a Frigidaire Error Code

|---|---|
| PF | Power failure alert after an outage or surge. Source: Frigidaire - Refrigerator Error Codes and Alarms Guide |
| H / HI | High-temperature alarm: the freezer or fresh food section has been too warm for over an hour, often because a door was left open. Source: Frigidaire - Refrigerator Error Codes and Alarms Guide |
| DI SP / DISP | Ice is jammed in the dispenser chute; clear it, then empty, clean and dry the ice bin before putting it back. Source: Frigidaire - Refrigerator Error Codes and Alarms Guide |

Local Notes for Boston
Most ice maker calls in Boston come down to the same handful of causes: water supply and pressure, a frozen fill tube, the water inlet valve, freezer temperature and the ice maker assembly itself.
Massachusetts does not issue a separate appliance repair license; running fuel gas piping to appliances and installing their vent piping is gas fitting work that requires a license from the Board of State Examiners of Plumbers and Gas Fitters.

In Massachusetts, you can check a license with the Massachusetts Division of Occupational Licensure eLIPSE license verification portal or report a problem to the Massachusetts Attorney General's Office, Consumer Advocacy and Response Division.
