Frigidaire Washer Repair – CANTON, OH (FFTW4120SW2)

A Canton homeowner called about their 3-year-old Frigidaire washer that kept reading ERR with water coming from the bottom. They suspected damage from moving, as it worked fine before being transported to their new home.

The Problem

The customer reported that their washer keeps reading ERR and water is coming from the bottom. They think it was dropped during moving, noting it worked just fine prior to that after buying it brand new 3 years ago.

Diagnosis

After inspection, we found the machine had shifted out of level during the move, and the drain hose had become misaligned. These issues were causing the error code and water leak.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: No parts replaced
• Work performed: Adjusted drain hose and leveled machine
• Result: Error code cleared and water leak eliminated

Is It Worth Repairing?

At only 3 years old, this Frigidaire washer has plenty of service life remaining. When the issue is simply leveling and hose adjustment rather than component failure, it’s definitely worth the repair cost over replacement.

Maintenance Tips for Frigidaire Washers

• Check machine level periodically, especially after moving or if vibration increases
• Inspect drain hose connections monthly for proper positioning and secure fittings
• Use Frigidaire’s self-cleaning cycle monthly to prevent buildup and maintain optimal performance
