The AD code means auto dry. The dryer is auto-sensing the moisture levels. This code is completely normal unless it flashes AD and shuts down the dryer in the first few minutes. Check that your vent is clear/unbent in the back, that could be the problem with not completely drying.

Frigidaire Affinity Front Loading Electric Dryer. In about 5 minutes of starting the dryer, an error "Ad" shows in the window above the start button. Then the dryer stops and the lights under the "Ad"

I believe that code means auto dry. Lets make sure the lint and dust is clear from the machine. Check all of your wiring out well since is generally a cause. You may ave to replace the thermistor. Have you gotten any other code along with this.

AD is not actually an error code, but is typically considered an Air Dry setting or feature on the unit.

During normal operation, the display may show: “ad” - dryer is in an auto dry cycle. “dn” - cycle is done in auto dry. “PF” - a power failure to the board has occurred. “Err” - an error has been detected. “LOC” - control lock is activated. “PAU” - cycle has been interrupted.

LED display on dryer reads AD???

All this is doing is letting you know that the Auto dry sensors are kicked in and checking to see how dry the clothing is.

Frigidaire GLEQ2152ESO Dryer flashing AD

AD means "auto dry", which means the dryer is supposed to be detecting the moisture levels in your clothing and adjusting the drying time accordingly.

If your dryer is flashing "AD" and turning off shortly after the start, there is likely a problem with the mechanism designed to detecting the moisture levels. If it turns off after trying to use all various settings (including the no-heat feature), it is likely a wiring issue.
