Frigidaire Dishwasher Error Code i58

The i58 code means the control board has detected an abnormal current reading from the wash motor, indicating a connection problem or motor fault. It can be triggered by a loose or corroded motor plug, a detached phase wire, or a broken winding inside the motor itself. The dishwasher halts operation when this code appears to prevent damage to the motor and electronics.

A reset may temporarily clear the code, but if the underlying cause has not been addressed, the error will return once the dishwasher attempts to run the wash motor again. A reset is useful for confirming whether a connection issue was intermittent, but it is not a fix. Always inspect the motor wiring and connections before relying on a reset.

If the issue is simply a loose or corroded connector, repair costs are minimal and may involve only a service call fee, typically in the range of $75 to $150 depending on your area. If the wire harness needs replacement, parts and labor could run $100 to $250. A failed wash motor is the most expensive scenario, with parts and professional labor potentially ranging from $200 to $400 or more depending on the specific model.

In many cases, yes. Start by unplugging the dishwasher, then locate the wash motor and inspect the wire harness connectors at both the motor and the control board. Reseating a loose connector or cleaning corroded terminals is a straightforward repair that requires no special tools. If the wiring checks out and the motor itself has failed, motor replacement is a more involved repair that some experienced DIYers can handle, but professional service may be preferable.

No, you should not attempt to run the dishwasher while the i58 code is active. The control board has detected a fault in the motor circuit, and continuing to operate the appliance could cause additional damage to the wash motor or the PCB. Disconnect power to the unit until the fault is diagnosed and repaired.
