Possible Causes

Dirty or greasy control panel surface, Moisture under touch membrane, Damaged touch sensor traces, Loose ribbon cable to main PCB

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the air fryer before cleaning or opening the control panel.

  • Clean the panel: Wipe the control surface with a soft cloth lightly dampened with mild detergent. Do not spray cleaner directly onto the panel.
  • Drying time: If the panel was exposed to liquid, leave the unit unplugged for 24 hours to allow internal moisture to evaporate.
  • Check ribbon cable: Remove the front fascia and ensure the touch panel ribbon is firmly seated in the PCB connector.
  • Test all keys: After reassembly, test each button. If specific keys remain unresponsive, the touch panel assembly likely needs replacement.

Do not press the panel with sharp objects; this can permanently damage the touch membrane.
