Frigidaire Range Error Code E-0A

E-0A means the oven temperature exceeded 600°F (316°C) during a normal cooking operation, not including self-clean mode. The control system detected dangerously high heat and shut down to protect the appliance. This fault points to a relay, circuit board, or oven sensor problem that allowed or reported temperatures beyond the safe cooking limit.

Disconnecting power may temporarily clear the code, but if the underlying cause, such as a stuck relay or faulty sensor, is still present, the fault will return during the next cooking cycle. Resetting power alone is not a repair and should only be done as part of the diagnostic process, not as a solution.

Repair costs depend on which component has failed. An oven temperature sensor typically costs between $20 and $60 for the part. A sub PCB with relay assembly can range from $80 to $200 or more depending on the model. Adding professional labor costs generally brings the total repair to somewhere between $150 and $400, though this varies by location and service provider.

No, you should not use the oven until the fault is diagnosed and repaired. The E-0A code means the oven reached temperatures above 600°F when it should not have, which poses a fire and safety risk. Disconnect power to the range and have the sub PCB relays and oven sensor inspected before resuming use.

Start by disconnecting power to the range, then check the DLB, Bake, Broil, and Convection relays on the sub PCB. Each relay's open contacts should measure infinite ohms. Also measure the oven temperature sensor resistance, which should be approximately 1080 ohms at room temperature. Inspect the sub PCB board for visible damage. Replace any failed relay, the sub PCB, or the sensor depending on what the testing reveals.
