Describe your Frigidaire GLTF2940FE1 Front Load

We have a GLTF2940FE1 Frigidare washer. I assume it is a later model of the 2940ES. It was purchased in July 2008. We are getting a moldy smell in the washer. Any suggestions?

  • Anonymous Mar 22, 2010

    I got the following from Frigdare this morning. Do the experts agree with this suggestion or is this just a band aid for a bigger problem?

    First rub some bleach around the door gasket. Let this dry. Next rub some vinegar around the door gasket. Let this dry. (Do NOT mix the bleach and vinegar) Then run a hot empty load of bleach in all three dispensers. Put 1/2 cup of bleach in the detergent dispenser and fill the softener and bleach dispenser to the max fill line with bleach. Once that is done repeat the process with vinegar. Please make sure you run a load of towels or some sort of items that will not matter if you get a little bleach on them once this process is done.


    We do recommend Glisten to be run through the unit once a month to help prevent this from happening. A link is provided for you below if you wished to purchase this product.

My front load washer frigidare door is rusty acsess door is rusted off its only 6 years old

Thank you for your post, debra!

I understand that the front of your Frigidaire washer is rusted. Typically rust is not covered under the warranty and in most cases, the door will more than likely need replacing. Could you please provide me with your model number? You can normally locate your serial tag (which lists your model number) on the upper front interior of the door frame on a front load washer. If you own a top load washer you would normally find the serial tag on the inside of the lid, on the right side. Once I have that information I can provide additional information for your washer. -Matt

Affinity frigidare front load washer won't start. It beeps with message flashing (DR)

Hello zabbster - Typically the DR or DO error code indicates that the door switch is not closed. Make sure that the door lock is completely closed. If the door is closed, make sure the door latch is not broken. If the latch is broken, you may possibly need to replace the door lock switch.

Violent spin cycle on the Frigidare front-loading washer

I assume you bought it new, so on that basis, did you remove the transit packing materials inside the machine ?

Front loading washing machine normal design is for the drum assembly to be supported by two or more springs at the top, and two dampers at the bottom. This allows the drum to move in a controlled fashion and also minimises vibration, particularly during spinning.
When the machines are shipped from the factory, transit packaging is put inside the machine to ensure that any shocks to the machine during transit dont damage the springs or dampers. This must be removed before use otherwise you get pretty much the symptoms you describe.

The manual that cam with it will show you how to remove the transit packaging. In such a short time I suspect you wont have suffered any damage, but take the transit packaging out as soon as possible.
