How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Disconnect power before removing the control panel.

  • Inspect the front panel for signs of liquid spills or condensation.
  • Remove the panel and check the connector between the keypad and main board.
  • Dry any moisture carefully and allow the panel to air out before reassembly.
