Possible Causes

Failed membrane keypad, Loose ribbon cable between keypad and PCB, Liquid spill damage on control panel, Faulty display/control board

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

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

Steps:

  • 1. Power reset: Unplug for 10 minutes, then reconnect to rule out a temporary logic lockup.
  • 2. Remove front bezel: Carefully remove the front panel to access the keypad and display board.
  • 3. Check ribbon cable: Ensure the keypad ribbon is fully seated in the connector on the display board. Reseat it if necessary.
  • 4. Inspect for moisture: Look for signs of water or cleaner intrusion on the keypad. If the membrane is swollen or delaminated, replace the control panel assembly.
  • 5. Replace display/control board: If the keypad tests good but buttons still do not respond, replace the display/control PCB with an OEM Insignia part.
