Frigidaire Affinity dryer model AEQ7000ESO error code E68 (stuck button). Sometimes a 'stuck button' code really is a stuck button. I took the circuit board off the front panel.On the back side of the front panel, each button has 3 short plastic posts, 2 on one side and 1 on the other.The center part moves to push a longer piece that contacts the circuit board. When I push the top of a front stadium-shaped button, the center plastic piece moves too far, touches the short post, and sticks (maybe due to age). When I push the bottom of the front button, the plastic piece goes far enough to contact the circuit board and not far enough to touch the short post. To prevent a stuck button, we now press the bottom of the front buttons.So far so good. If it happens again, I plan to shave or file a little bit off the top edge of the post to give it more clearance. 1st photo: pencil points to stuck parts. 2nd photo: unstuck parts, 3rd photo: the front of our dryer. Error Code E68 on frigidaire affinity dryer. - 68a7d368-523a-4ad9-b13a-20009dc9f567.jpg

SOURCE: what does error code e68 mean

One of the buttons is stuck closed or shorted. Enter the function test mode and perform the button test to determine which button is stuck or shorted. When determined which button, try to free or unstuck the button then perform the test again. Replace the user interface board when the button is freed but the code still exists.

Press and hold the SELECT and CANCEL buttons simultaneously for 6 seconds to reset the control. When resetting is successful, the buzzer will sound and "rES" will be shown briefly in the display, and then immediately rotate the cycle selector knob 5 turns in the counterclockwise direction to the second position from the bottom.

Press and hold the OPTIONS and CANCEL buttons simultaneously for 2 seconds to enter test mode; the buzzer will sound 3 times and all of the LEDs will flash rapidly.

Rotate the cycle selector knob 4 times in the clockwise direction to enter button test. Press the buttons one at a time and observe the LEDs corresponding to that button light up. The LEDs should light up; otherwise the button is stuck.

Press and hold the SELECT and CANCEL buttons simultaneously for 6 seconds to exit test mode.

Hi


Error E68 means that one of the panel buttons is stuck, press all the buttons lightly and release. You can also take the control board apart and try to blow air with the help of hair dryer, doing all this should solve the issue. After this if the issue returns then you should replace the control. Hope this helps...please post back for further assistance.

Good Afternoon David,

I understand that your Frigidaire Affinity dryer, model# LEQ6000ES2, is showing you an error code of E68 and will not start. I also see that you have changed the thermal limiter. Looking at what the E68 error code means, a key or button stuck, there could be something else causing the code to come up. I suggest contacting your local authorized technician for further assistance. They will be able to diagnose your appliance, determine what is causing the E68, and repair your dryer. Hope this is helpful.
