Error codeF31
ApplianceRange
Electrolux uses F31 to flag a shorted probe. You will find it in the guide for electric ranges, directly after F30, the open probe code, and wall ovens share the entry.
Owner instructions
Owners get no reset, no unplugging routine and no probe check for this code. Only the timing rule applies:
Installed up to 30 days ago: the installer deals with it.
Installed after that: schedule service with Electrolux.
A range that keeps showing F31 can go to Electrolux range repair serving San Francisco and nearby Bay Area cities. Call (415) 449-0036 with the model number and the length of time since installation.
Model compatibility: Electrolux reuses codes across series and model years, so F31 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What this code means
Electrolux lists F31 as a shorted probe on electric ranges and wall ovens.
Important safety warning. Do not attempt repairs involving electrical components, gas, water lines, refrigerant or sealed systems. Unplug the appliance if it is safe to reach the outlet, and leave internal diagnostics to a qualified technician.
