Possible Causes

Stuck or damaged membrane keypad, Loose ribbon cable to main PCB, Liquid spill into control panel, Faulty control PCB

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit before opening the control panel.

  • 1. Try remote: If the remote still controls the unit, the issue is likely with the panel keypad, not the main PCB.
  • 2. Inspect keypad cable: Remove the top cover and check the flat ribbon cable from the keypad to the PCB. Reseat the connector.
  • 3. Check for moisture: Look for signs of liquid spills or corrosion on the keypad board. Dry and clean gently if minor.
  • 4. Replace keypad: If specific buttons never work or feel stuck, replace the control panel keypad assembly.
