What the E25 error code actually means

Your washer has detected a problem with the pump that recirculates water during the wash cycle. The control board is not getting the signal it expects from that pump's circuit. This stops the washer from running until the issue is diagnosed and corrected.

Questions people ask about E25

What does E25 mean on a Frigidaire washer?
E25 indicates a Recirculation Pump Relay Sense failure. The main control board monitors the relay that powers the recirculation pump and has detected that the relay's sensed state does not match what the board commanded. This fault stops the washer from operating until the underlying cause is resolved.
Will resetting the washer clear the E25 error code?
A reset may temporarily clear the E25 code, but if the underlying wiring fault, relay failure, or pump problem has not been corrected, the code will return during the next wash cycle. A reset alone is not a fix and should only be used as part of confirming whether a repair was successful.
How much does it cost to repair a Frigidaire washer E25 error?
Repair costs vary depending on what has failed. If the issue is a wiring problem or a loose connector, costs may be minimal, covering only diagnostic time. Replacing the recirculation pump motor typically runs between $80 and $200 in parts, while a new main control board can range from $100 to $300 or more, plus labor if a technician is hired.
Can I fix E25 on my Frigidaire washer myself?
A knowledgeable DIYer can perform the first diagnostic steps, which involve inspecting and testing the wiring between the main control board and the recirculation pump. If the fault is a loose connector or a damaged wire, that repair is straightforward. However, if the main control board or the pump motor needs replacement, comfort with appliance disassembly and basic electrical testing is required.
Is it safe to use my Frigidaire washer while E25 is displayed?
No, you should not continue running the washer while E25 is active. The recirculation pump relay fault means the board cannot confirm proper pump operation, and running the machine in this state could cause further damage to the pump, wiring, or control board. Resolve the fault before resuming normal use.
