Frigidaire Range Error Code E60

E60 on a Frigidaire range indicates an ambient oven temperature error associated with the ESEC 20 User Interface Board (UIB). The control board has detected an abnormal temperature condition in its sensing circuit. This fault points to either a mechanical assembly problem with the touch panel or a failure of the UIB itself. It is not the same as a standard oven temperature sensor fault.

It is not recommended to continue using the range while E60 is active. A fault in the UIB means the control board may not be operating reliably, which could affect oven temperature regulation and other safety functions. Discontinue use until the issue has been diagnosed and repaired.

Repair costs vary depending on whether the issue is a simple touch panel reseating or requires a full UIB replacement. A service call and labor alone can run anywhere from $75 to $150 or more depending on your area. If a new UIB is needed, parts can add another $100 to $300 or more to the total, making the overall repair cost typically fall in the range of $150 to $450.

The first step is checking that the touch panel is properly and securely mounted, which is something a handy homeowner can do. However, if the panel assembly looks correct, the repair requires replacing the UIB, which involves working with electrical components and is best handled by a qualified technician. Attempting board replacement without proper experience can risk further damage or safety hazards.

A power reset by unplugging the range or turning off the circuit breaker for a few minutes may temporarily clear the E60 code, but it is unlikely to resolve the underlying cause. If the touch panel assembly is loose or the UIB has failed, the error will return. A reset can be useful for confirming whether the fault is intermittent, but it is not a permanent fix.
