How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Steps:

  • 1. Isolate power: Plug the unit directly into a wall outlet, not a shared power strip with other large appliances.
  • 2. Inspect keypad: Check for stuck or damaged buttons on the control panel. Clean around buttons with a slightly damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
  • 3. Moisture check: Remove the control panel cover and inspect for condensation or water on the PCB. Dry gently and allow to air out before reassembly.
  • 4. Remote interference: Ensure no other remotes or IR devices are inadvertently sending signals.
  • 5. Replace control board: If random behavior persists, replace the display/control board or main PCB as appropriate.
