How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit before any disassembly.

  • Power cycle: Unplug for at least 15 minutes to fully discharge the board, then plug back in and attempt to start a basic cycle.
  • Check power quality: Avoid using long extension cords or overloaded power strips. Plug directly into a grounded wall outlet.
  • Inspect control board: Remove the cover to access the main control board. Look for obvious damage such as burnt ICs or cracked components.
  • Firmware reset (if available): Some models may have a hidden reset sequence (e.g., holding specific buttons). Refer to the user manual; if available, perform the reset.
  • If E9 remains: The memory section of the control board is likely defective. Replace the main control board with the correct Emeril Lagasse part number for your model.
