Possible Causes

Loose ribbon cable between UI board and main PCB,Corroded connector contacts,Faulty touch/display PCB,Main control board communication IC failure

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the air fryer before opening the housing.

Inspection steps:

  • Access the control panel: Remove the front bezel or top cover (depending on model) to expose the touch/display PCB and its ribbon cable to the main board.
  • Check ribbon cable seating: Ensure the flat cable is fully inserted and locked in its connector at both ends. Gently release and reinsert it to improve contact.
  • Inspect for damage: Look for kinks, tears, or burn marks on the ribbon cable. Check the display PCB for signs of liquid ingress or corrosion.
  • Clean connectors: Use a soft brush or compressed air to remove dust. If corrosion is present, lightly clean with isopropyl alcohol and allow to dry completely.

Corrective actions:

  • Replace the ribbon cable if it is physically damaged.
  • If E9 persists, substitute the touch/display PCB if available.
  • If a new UI board does not resolve the issue, the main control board communication circuitry is likely faulty and the board should be replaced.
