Possible Causes

Moisture under touch panel, conductive residue on keypad, shorted UI PCB, damaged button membrane

Safety first: Unplug the machine immediately to prevent unintended operation.

Dry thoroughly: If the panel was exposed to spills, let the machine dry in a warm, dry place for 24–48 hours.
Clean panel surface: Wipe with a slightly damp cloth and then dry completely.
Inspect UI board (advanced): Check for corrosion or residue on the UI PCB; clean with isopropyl alcohol if needed.
Replace UI assembly: If phantom presses continue, the keypad or UI PCB should be replaced.
