Good Afternoon Friend, this is Z. Thank you for your post!

If you are receiving an error code E61 on your Frigidaire Affinity dryer, first check if it is a false error code by resetting the power to your appliance by either unplugging it or flipping off the breaker for about ten minutes. If the error code persists, it could potentially mean that your dryer is experiencing a failure with the heater relay. This is not a typical DIY job. I would recommend reaching out to an experienced appliance tech just to ensure no troubleshooting step has been missed. You can often locate a qualified service provider through the manufacturer website.

Best regards.

Frigidaire affinity dryer error code e61 after running for five minutes. Have replaced the control board already. What does it mean?

Others have had the same question. These urls ( both current as at 2018-02-03)

and

throw light on it.

Consensus is that E61 is a heater fault, in which case nowt to do with the board, but likely an open circuit in the heater element. Easy to check with an ohm-meter. Board diagnostics are correctly saying "I've been on for a few minutes but detect no heating..BAD". Keep the old board - it's likely fine.

I am getting E61 code on my Frigidaire Affinity Dryer model number FASE7073NA, how do I clear this error code?

Good Morning Friend, thank you for your post!

An error code E61 on your Frigidaire dryer is associated with a failure in the heater relay. A qualified technician would pinpoint the problem by checking the wiring for both open and short circuit across heater relay(s). If the wiring isn't the issue, he/she would need to determine whether the problem rest with the main control board. It really could be a hit or miss calculation in parts so I would personally reach out to an experienced tech that will be able to identify the precise reason.

What does Frigidaire affinity dryer code E61 mean

E61 is a line voltage problem, most of the time it means you have the neutral and the L2 wire either reversed or in the wrong position. Verify that the voltage is correct at the plug then at the machine and that you have 240 volts at the terminal block on the back of your dryer.
