Run the service diagnostic mode to determine which button is stuck. Start by pressing and holding the Select and Cancel buttons simultaneously for 6 seconds to reset the control.

Replace the control board if the stuck button cannot be unstuck or if there's no button that's apparently stuck but the fault code persists. Let us know if you need further advice.

Frigidaire affinity LEQ6000ES2 error code e68...dryer will not start

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.

-Best Regards-

Error Code E68 on frigidaire affinity dryer. dryer will run about 2 minutes and then shut down with error code E68

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. 68a7d368-523a-4ad9-b13a-20009dc9f567.jpg

The error code E68 means a key or button is stuck. Check the buttons by pressing them one at a time to find the stuck one or enter the service diagnostic mode then the key function test. Click on the link below for the detailed instructions.

This code means there is a probelm with one of the push buttons is held in to long or stuck.try and press or wiggle each one until there is nothing stuck. you may need to remove the control panel and free up the button that way.

What does E68 mean? This is flashing on the screen and them the machine stops drying.

It's telling you that one or more of the control buttons are stuck, whether they really are or not. It may clear up if you disconnect power to the machine for an hour or so, but if it comes back, you are probably going to need a new control board.
