Before you book,
in this order.

Each step comes from Electrolux's own guidance for PF on its dishwashers. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Clear it with Start/Cancel.

02

Choose the cycle again and start over.

03

Book a visit if PF keeps appearing on a circuit that has not tripped.

Cleared?

No part needed replacing. If the next full cycle still stops partway or leaves water in the tub, treat that as a new problem.

What not to do

Clearing PF does not finish the interrupted wash; the load needs a fresh cycle.

What you may
notice with it.

The dishwasher problems PF tends to arrive with. Answer these at the dishwasher before anyone is booked.

All problems

No repair indicated

Nothing to repair.

A setting someone turned on, or a reminder the machine shows on purpose — a control lock, a demo mode, a rinse-aid prompt. Nothing is broken and no part is needed.

Read these
before the visit.

Short guides that make the call quicker and the diagnosis cheaper.

In Electrolux's own words

To reset, press the START/CANCEL button should cancel this error and a new cycle can be started.
Electrolux owner support: Dishwasher Error Code PF

Every code on this site is taken from the manufacturer's documentation, never from a forum or a parts listing. Electrolux's US owner-support articles for its dishwashers; Frigidaire publishes the same list for its own models.

Questions
about PF.

Can I clear PF myself?
Clear it with Start/Cancel.
Will my Electrolux finish the wash on its own after PF?
No, the interrupted wash does not resume. Clear PF with Start/Cancel and choose the cycle again.
Why does PF keep appearing on my Electrolux?
Repeated PF on a circuit that has not tripped is worth a visit. A single PF after an outage is expected.

Still showing PF?

Book with the characters exactly as shown, the full model number, and whether any water is on the floor — for a code, that is where the diagnosis begins.
