Error codeF10
ApplianceRange
Quick answer
F10 on a Frigidaire range or wall oven means the oven detected higher-than-normal temperature, a safety alert.
Model compatibility: Frigidaire reuses codes across series and model years, so F10 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What this code means
F10 is a thermal runaway safety alert: the oven detects higher-than-normal temperature.
An oven showing F10 has detected a temperature higher than normal. Frigidaire calls it a built-in safety alert meant to protect the appliance and keep operation safe. It is listed as “Thermal Runaway” in the owner support guide and as “Runaway Temperature” on the fault code sheet.
Standard ranges and wall ovens
Shut the oven off and wait for it to cool before the next use.
To reset, pull the plug for 30 seconds and then reconnect it.
When the plug is out of reach, the breaker works as a reset too, though everything on that circuit resets with it.
If F10 persists, contact support.
Stone-baked pizza ovens
These models can throw F10 when the Pizza Shield is set in the wrong rack position. Rack position 7 is where both the oven rack and the Pizza Shield belong, though some models vary, so the Use and Care Guide has the final word. After that, reset the unit and begin the Stone-Baked Pizza preheat over.
What a technician checks
The fault code sheet lists the RTD sensor probe first, replacing it if necessary. If the oven keeps overheating after power is reapplied, the electronic oven control is the next suspect.

F2 is the older code for oven temperature above specification.
For a Frigidaire oven that keeps showing F10 in Los Angeles, call (310) 861-3938. Say what you tried, give the model number, and note whether the oven was in a pizza mode. The range repair page has more.
Important safety warning. Do not attempt repairs involving electrical components, gas, water lines, refrigerant or sealed systems. Unplug the appliance if it is safe to reach the outlet, and leave internal diagnostics to a qualified technician.
