Our dryer was sitting idle the other day, and we started hearing some random beeps. E68 was being displayed on the digital readout. I did some googleing, and tried a few tips I found, but nothing solved the problem. I cleaned the dryer line going out of the house. I removed the waffle looking piece inside the door (by the lint trap), and cleaned that all out. I also disconnected the 2 wires hooked up there, and cleaned those connections. Still having the problem. Does anyone know what this means? I called Frigidaire, and they couldn't tell me anything (go figure). E68 seems to mean a key is sticking or something, according to the info I found online. Please help! I'm going insane with this, and I don't have the ridiculous amount of money that a repairman will want to charge me. Thanks.

E68 is indeed a stuck key. The control board monitors the keys if one of them remains closed it gives you the error.

Nothttp://frigidaireservicetips.com/pdfs/492_AffinityDryerManual.pdf sure about the model but this may also come in handy

No luck. I disassembled all of the electronics, and inspected all of the buttons. All of the buttons seemed to "click" properly. I reassembled everything and plugged the drier back in. I didn't get an error code or anything. I thought it was fixed. I did a load of laundry, all error free. Then, about 2 hours later, I hear the drier beep. Keep in mind, it wasn't being used at this point. Then I hear the dreaded 6 beeps. I go check, and yep....E68. Ugh.

Unfortunately it sounds like the control board is shot.

Since you have done a lot of troubleshooting if you order a replacement from AppliancePartsPros they will allow you to return it if it does not fix your problem. See their return policy.

After putting up with E68 for long enough......I have ordered a new board from AppliancePartsPros. Thanks for all the tips guys. Hopefully this solves the problem.
