Possible Causes
Moisture or grease on touch panel, Cracked touch glass or plastic, Faulty capacitive sensor IC, Poor grounding of control panel
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the unit before cleaning or disassembly.
- Clean surface: Wipe the control panel with a slightly damp cloth and mild detergent, then dry completely. Grease films can affect capacitive sensing.
- Check for damage: Inspect the panel for cracks or warping. Replace the control panel assembly if physically damaged.
- Internal inspection: Ensure the control PCB is firmly mounted and any grounding straps or screws are secure.
- Persistent false touches: If random activations continue, replace the control panel or main PCB depending on which contains the touch controller for your model.
