Possible Causes

Failed user interface board, Loose ribbon cable between UI and main control, Stuck or shorted keypad button, Moisture or contamination on UI PCB

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect power before removing the control console.

Step-by-step checks:

  • Inspect keypad: Check for stuck buttons, liquid spills, or physical damage to the console. Gently press each button to ensure it moves freely.
  • Access UI board: Remove the control panel to expose the user interface board and ribbon cable.
  • Check connections: Reseat the ribbon cable between the UI and main control board. Inspect for corrosion or bent pins.
  • Clean contamination: If there are signs of moisture or residue, carefully clean the board and keypad contacts with electronics-safe cleaner and allow to dry completely.
  • Replace UI board: If E10 persists and physical damage or corrosion is evident, replace the user interface board.

When to call a technician: If both UI and main control may be suspect, a technician can test and confirm which board is faulty.
