Possible Causes

Moisture under touch panel, Damaged membrane keypad, Loose ribbon cable to control PCB, Faulty touch controller IC

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the coffee maker.

  • Dry the panel: If the panel was recently cleaned or exposed to steam, allow the unit to dry for 24 hours in a warm, dry location.
  • Avoid harsh cleaners: Clean the panel only with a slightly damp soft cloth. Do not spray cleaner directly onto the panel.
  • Check for stuck buttons: Gently press each button to ensure it moves freely and is not physically stuck.
  • Inspect ribbon cable (advanced): If you can safely access the control board, check that the keypad ribbon cable is fully seated and not corroded.
  • Replace panel if needed: Persistent E05 usually indicates a failed keypad or touch panel, which should be replaced as an assembly.
