Frigidaire calls F10 thermal runaway: the oven senses higher-than-normal temperatures and shuts down as a safety step. On stoves with Stone-Baked Pizza, a pizza shield on the wrong rack can bring on F10. Frigidaire stove display What to do when F10 shows on the stove ### Kind of code Oven heating The oven part of the stove was set to bake or broil and did not warm the way the controls expected, or took far too long to get there. On an electric stove a bake or broil element that has burned through is the everyday reason; on a gas stove the oven igniter and the valve it opens are looked at first. The wiring and the relay on the board are checked before the board itself is blamed. ### Usually leads to Stove oven heating repair The oven part of a stove that stays cold, heats slowly or bakes too hot or too cool, fixed at the bake and broil elements, the oven igniter, the gas valve or the temperature sensor. ### Shows up as Oven on My Stove Runs Hot or Cold Recipes take much longer or much less time than they should, cakes burn on the outside and stay raw inside, or an oven thermometer disagrees with the display by more than a little. ### Make Frigidaire One of the most familiar stove names in American homes, now part of Electrolux. ### Source Frigidaire: Ranges - Error Code Guide Frigidaire's range code guide and its oven error codes guide; the pizza shield note applies to Stone-Baked Pizza models. ## Before you book, in this order. Each step comes from Frigidaire's own guidance for F10 on its stoves. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit. 01 Shut the oven off and let it cool down with its door kept closed. 02 On a Stone-Baked Pizza model, move the rack and shield to rack position 7 or the position your guide gives. 03 Unplug or switch off the breaker for 30 seconds, then try again. 04 If F10 returns during a normal bake, stop using the oven and book a visit. ### Still there? It usually turns into [stove oven heating repair](https://stoverepair.center/services/stove-oven-heating-repair/). Book with the code and the model number. ### What not to do F10 is not a sensor wiring code. Frigidaire's probe codes are F30 and F31; F10 means the heat reading was real and too high. ## What you may notice with it. The stove problems F10 tends to arrive with.

Shut the oven off and let it cool down with its door kept closed. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### My Frigidaire shows F10 only when I make pizza. Why? On Stone-Baked Pizza models, Frigidaire says a pizza shield on the wrong rack can cause it. Move it to rack position 7 and start the preheat again. ### Is F10 on a Frigidaire a fire risk? It is the oven protecting itself from overheating. Let it cool, and if you see smoke from the wiring or the oven keeps heating with the knob off, switch the breaker off. ### Can I keep using my Frigidaire oven after an F10? If it happened once and the oven bakes normally after cooling and a reset, yes. If F10 repeats, the controls need checking. --- **[Read on the site: Frigidaire stove shows F10 while baking | StoveRepair.center](https://stoverepair.center/error-codes/frigidaire-f10/)** **[Book a visit with StoveRepair.center](https://stoverepair.center/schedule/)**
