Frigidaire Dryer Error Code E31

Moisture sensor fault

Moisture sensor fault — short across sensor bars, wiring open, bars contacting bulkhead, or foreign object interfering with contact sensors (rotary models); contact sensor frequency too high (push button models).

First step from the service manual

Check contact sensors for foreign objects and wiring. If no problems found, check wiring (quick connect at moisture bars and/or edge connector J3). If that doesn't fix the problem, replace the electronic control board.

The complete diagnostic procedure includes additional test steps, resistance specifications, wiring diagram references, and component test points.
