How to reset error code on Frigidaire refrigerator?
On the Frigidaire FGHS2355PF6B, most “error” messages are cleared by correcting the condition (door ajar, high temp, ice chute/flapper jam) and then resetting the alarm from the dispenser controls. Use the steps in the FGHS2355PF6B owner's manual to match the message to the correct reset action.
- Close both doors firmly; make sure nothing is holding the door open.
- If “Door Ajar” is showing, press SET (some control versions use MUTE ALARM) to reset the alarm.
- If the display shows a flapper or ice chute alarm, remove the jammed ice, then press SET to reset.
- If “HIGH TEMP DETECTED” is showing, press MUTE ALARM to silence it; the indicator stays on until temperatures drop back below the alarm threshold.
- If you want to return the control panel to factory defaults, select DEFAULT SETTINGS and press and hold SET for 3 seconds.
Many Frigidaire side-by-side models use the display for alarms and status indicators, not a single universal “error code reset.” Here is what typically happens after you press the reset key:
| Display message or indicator | What it means | What clears it |
|---|---|---|
| Door ajar | Door open too long | Close door, then press SET or MUTE ALARM |
| Flapper / chute alarm | Ice chute door held open by ice | Remove jam; alarm resets, then press SET if needed |
| High temp detected | Compartment temp too warm | Press MUTE ALARM to silence; light clears after temp recovers |
| Water filter / air filter status | Maintenance reminder | Press and hold the filter button for 3 seconds to reset status |
Resetting the display without fixing the cause (warm temps, a door not sealing, or a dispenser jam) usually makes the message come back. Clearing the alarm after the issue is corrected helps you confirm the refrigerator is back to normal operation.
If you are trying to clear a “Replace” reminder (not an error), reset the filter status after installing the correct filter:
- Water filter: press and hold the WATER FILTER button for 3 seconds
- Air filter: press and hold the AIR FILTER button for 3 seconds
For the correct replacement, use the refrigerator water filter ULTRAWF.

Can I look up Frigidaire parts by model number?
Yes. We look up Frigidaire parts by model number so you get parts that fit your exact refrigerator; for FGHS2355PF6B, matching by model helps you choose the correct water filter, air filter, door gasket, and dispenser parts without guessing.
- Find the model number on the refrigerator’s rating plate (often inside the fresh food compartment or on a side wall).
- Enter the full model number exactly as shown: FGHS2355PF6B.
- Use the parts diagrams to identify the section you need (dispenser, doors, shelves, cooling system).
- Match the part by description and ID, then confirm it matches your symptom.
- Cross-check replacement steps and access panels in the FGHS2355PF6B owner's manual.
Here are examples of model-matched parts for this refrigerator:
- Refrigerator water filter ULTRAWF for water and ice taste, flow, and filter-change intervals
- Refrigerator door air filter EAFCBF for odor control inside the fresh food compartment
- Refrigerator door gasket (gray) 241786015 for warm spots, moisture, or frost from air leaks
- Refrigerator temperature sensor 240597220 for temperature swings or inconsistent cooling
| If your issue is | Part type to look up by model | Example from this model |
|---|---|---|
| Bad-tasting water or slow dispenser | Water filter | ULTRAWF |
| Odors in fresh food section | Air filter | EAFCBF |
| Frost, sweating, or poor sealing | Door gasket | 241786015 |
| Warm fridge or freezer, noisy airflow | Fan components | 5308000010 |
Model-number lookup prevents fit and compatibility problems. Even within the same Frigidaire side-by-side series, filter housings, dispenser modules, and door parts can vary, so using FGHS2355PF6B keeps the repair accurate.

What does EF mean on a Frigidaire?
On the Frigidaire FGHS2355PF6B refrigerator, EF (often shown as SY EF or 5Y EF) points to a problem in the evaporator fan circuit, which can stop proper airflow and cause warm temperatures. We focus troubleshooting on the fan, wiring, and the main control.
- Power reset: unplug the refrigerator (or switch off the breaker) for 5 minutes, then restore power.
- Listen for the evaporator fan: it should run when the compressor is running and the freezer door switch is closed.
- Check for airflow blockage: make sure packages are not pressed against the rear freezer panel or vents.
- Look for frost buildup on the freezer back wall (a heavy frost pattern can indicate an airflow/defrost issue).
- Inspect door sealing: a poor seal can increase frost and restrict airflow over time.
If the code returns after a reset, these are the most common repair paths:
| What’s failing | What you’ll notice | Typical fix |
|---|---|---|
| Evaporator fan issue | Little or no airflow from freezer vents, warmer fresh food section | Inspect fan area; replace damaged fan components |
| Wiring/connector issue | Fan runs intermittently, code appears randomly | Reseat connectors; repair harness damage |
| Control problem | Fan has power issues even when not iced up | Diagnose control outputs; replace board if needed |
For evaporator fan-related symptoms and testing steps, use how to fix your evaporator cooling fan.
The evaporator fan moves cold air through the freezer and into the fresh food compartment. When the fan circuit fails, temperatures rise, food can spoil faster, and frost can build up, which makes the problem worse.
Use the FGHS2355PF6B owner’s manual for control display behavior, alarm indicators, and “before you call” checks that match your exact refrigerator.

What does my Frigidaire model number tell me?
Your Frigidaire model number (FGHS2355PF6B) identifies the exact refrigerator design, feature set, and parts configuration so we can match the correct filters, shelves, electronics, and door components. It also helps identify finish and production variations that affect which replacement parts fit.
Model numbers are Frigidaire’s “ID tag” for your refrigerator. They commonly point to:
- Product type and series (for example, side-by-side vs. other styles)
- Feature package (dispenser, ice maker, filtration, control style)
- Finish or color code (often embedded as a letter in the model number)
- Engineering revision (small changes that can affect part fit)
- Parts compatibility (the most important reason to use the full model number)
For FGHS2355PF6B, using the full model number is the best way to ensure you get the right water filter, air filter, door gasket, and control parts.
Check these common locations:
- Inside the fresh food compartment on a side wall
- Near the crisper area or lower liner
- On a label behind a drawer or bin
- On the cabinet frame near the door opening
If you are ordering parts, match the model number exactly, including all letters and numbers.
Even small model-number differences can change which parts fit. Here are common examples on this FGHS2355PF6B platform:
| Item you are replacing | Why the model number matters | Example part for this model |
|---|---|---|
| Water filter | Filter type and housing style vary by series | Refrigerator water filter ULTRAWF |
| Air filter | Door filter style varies by design | Refrigerator door air filter EAFCBF |
| Door gasket | Door size and profile vary by revision | Refrigerator door gasket (gray) 241786015 |
If your display is flashing or you see a performance message, the model number helps match the correct diagnostic info and control system version. Use the FGHS2355PF6B owner’s manual for model-specific operation and troubleshooting steps.
Using the exact model number prevents wrong-part returns, reduces downtime, and helps you target the right repair (for example, filtration, airflow, or dispenser issues) the first time.
