Error code: 1:86001S:66003S:-891751198O:0B

I've been trying to login to play the new season but I keep getting "Connection timeout. Please see ea.com/unable-to-connect for more information. Error code: 1:86001S:66003S:-891751198O:0B"
 
I checked the recommended website but the tips there have not helped. Does anyone know how to fix this issue?
  • turns out the issue was with my ea account (friends list in the ea app not loading) and i had to contact someone from ea help to get them to fix it on their end, the issue isnt with the players connection

    when contacting ea help make sure you use the chat option and not the email option, the emails are absolutely useless and every day someone new was emailing me with the same tips that i had already gone through

    in the chat with ea help i told tell them that i found a thread from 2021 about the ea app not loading users friends list where the solution was to have an ea employee fix something on their end, they ran me through some basic tips regarding changing dns, using a mobile hotspot, port forwarding, etc. these tips didnt help because the issue wasnt with my connection, there was something wrong with my ea account, someone on ea's side fixed whatever was wrong, i dont know what specifically was wrong but this issue has been happening to people since 2021

    this is the thread i found where the issue was first solved, but again they said that someone at ea fixed it, its not an issue with the player's connection:

    after not playing for over a year i had to do a fresh install because it wasn't showing up in my library. i started the game and kept getting this error code, turns out it took windows about 20+ minutes to get the allow network box that usually shows up every time you install a new game. after i allowed it the error went away. could be something to look into.

  • @markos1889 Worked for me ! Although I am playing through steam, so what I had to do instead more specificly was uninstall the Ea app / Ea desktop - for good mesures I then verified BF2042 in steam - Launched the game - it began auto install the Ea app again - still with the error although , but the I just had to close the game - close steam completely and then run steam as -'Run as administator' . Fixed ! Launched the game again normally without any issues in first try. Thx for your fix ! - I hope someone else benefits from my response aswell !
