What does i30 mean on a Frigidaire dishwasher?

Water in the base — flood switch tripped. Real leak. Don't reset; find and fix the leak first. The control board logs this code so technicians can skip generic troubleshooting. We carry the OEM service manuals on tablet for every major platform — no guess-and-replace.

Is i30 the same as iE0?

Yes — display rendering quirk on some Frigidaire models. Same fault.

Can I just dry it out and use the dishwasher?

Only briefly to test. The flood switch is a one-shot float; once tripped it usually has to be replaced even after drying. And the underlying leak hasn't been fixed.

How much to fix Frigidaire i30?

Most Frigidaire dishwasher repairs in the Twin Cities land $285–$485 all-in — parts, labor, and the $149 trip fee (which is credited toward the repair when you approve the work). Sealed-system or compressor work runs higher and we always quote that up front. Every job ships with a 1-year written parts-and-labor warranty.

Frigidaire Dishwasher i30 Error Leak Detected — Find the Source Before Resetting

i30 (sometimes iE0) on a Frigidaire dishwasher means the flood switch in the base of the cabinet tripped — there's water under the tub. Do not just reset and re-run; you'll dump more water on the floor. Find the leak first.

What we fix in Minneapolis

The Minneapolis repair mix

Don't reset — find the leak

The flood switch is a one-shot float in the base. Once tripped, the dishwasher won't run cycles. Resetting only re-arms the cycle; the leak source is still there and you'll dump more water on the floor.

Common leak points

Door seal at top edge (cracks at year 5+). Drain hose connection at the sump. Sump gasket. Supply hose connection at the inlet valve under the dishwasher. Dispenser gasket. We run a short cycle with the kickplate off and a strong light to spot the leak in real time.

Frigidaire dishwasher repair in the Twin Cities

Factory-trained Frigidaire service. Door seals, sump gaskets, drain hoses, inlet valves, flood switches, drain pumps on the truck. 1-year written warranty.

Field-service notes on dishwasher repair

On dishwasher repair, we keep the diagnostic tight because the failure catalog on this brand is well-documented. The Twin Cities humidity swing — dry January to sticky July — cycles refrigerator door gaskets hard; a gasket that seals in March can pull ambient air by August and drive up compressor run time 15–20%.

Because this page focuses on don't reset — find the leak, our tech opens the call by isolating that subsystem before touching anything else. Wear parts (belts, pumps, igniters, valves) ship from our truck stock; boards and sealed-system parts are OEM-only from Marcone or the manufacturer's direct distributor. The $149 residential diagnostic is credited toward the repair if you approve; if you don't, you pay only the diagnostic and we leave a written scope. Every completed repair carries a 1-year parts and labor warranty in writing. The section above covers the specific failure surface — the flood switch is a one-shot float in the base.

We stock the top-30 wear items for this brand on the truck, so most first-visit repairs close same-day. We're EPA 608 certified for sealed-system and refrigerant work, licensed and insured in Minnesota, and every tech carries a factory diagnostic laptop for brand-specific service modes. If the model is out of parts support, we'll say so on the first call and refund the diagnostic — that's the honest read on a repair-vs-replace decision, and it's the same read we'd give a family member calling about the same dishwasher.
