Stuck Keypad

The error E68 may appear when a keypad on the control panel is stuck in place. This may be resolved by using a clean, slightly damp cloth to clean the keypad -- turn off and unplug the washing machine first. Wipe dry with another towel and then restore power to the unit.

Replacement

If cleaning the keypad does not work, the entire control panel keypad may need to be replaced. Turn off and disconnect power to the dryer. Restore power after several minutes. If the error code returns, turn the dryer off again and contact a service professional for assistance.
