I'm going to be a tiny bit difficult right now because I think you've said a couple of things that might be contradictory, or , at least I don't quite understand your situation. First, you have an AA in ECE and you're working full-time (I suppose in that field) . . . and you've discovered you don't like it very much and you want to switch careers, getting a Bachelors in the process. But then you say that you want to get "any Bachelors" It's an important point I think because the easiest Bachelors to get would probably be a BA in ECE. If you did that would it help your situation? At least it's a BA. Would it be better or worse to get a BA in General Studies or Liberal Arts? Because that's probably going to be the second easiest BA for you. Is a BA in Liberal Arts going to improve your situation? Does it need to be more specific? The next options are likely to be 1) Business and 2) Psychology. They are probably the two most common Bachelors degrees offered online and can also be done by "testing out." How do you react to those ideas? Your immediate reaction is likely to be indicative of your long-term preferences. And it's helpful to know because if you simply make a random choice then it's likely that you will spend more time and energy correcting that mistake in the future. It's worth it to take some time, peruse some websites, looking at course descriptions and get a sense of whether you might actually enjoy the courses. And if somehow it really doesn't matter which degree you earn then you can either go for the easiest fastest route or you could get a degree in something that has always captured your attention

I'm really just joking about those degrees. It's just to make a point. I just think it would be a good idea to put some more thought into it up front so that you're more likely to be pleased with the final outcome. Beyond all that, your basic plan is perfectly sound and a lot of people have done exactly what you're planning. Best of luck.
