Possible Causes

Extended tumble option enabled, Normal end-of-cycle indication, Control board misinterpretation if behavior is abnormal

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Note: On many Frigidaire dryers, Ad simply indicates "Auto Dry" cycle complete or extended tumble and is not an error.

  • Check user manual:
    • Confirm that Ad is an informational code for your specific model.
  • Disable extended tumble:
    • If you do not want the drum to continue tumbling, turn off the extended tumble or wrinkle release option.
  • Power reset if behavior is abnormal:
    • If the dryer will not stop or behaves erratically, unplug for 5 minutes and retry.
    • If the issue persists, the main control board may be faulty and require replacement.
