Possible Causes

Corrupted EEPROM data, Power surge damage to main PCB, Loose control panel ribbon cable, Faulty main control board

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Disconnect power before opening the control panel or accessing the PCB.

Steps:

  • Power cycle: Unplug the Cecotec dehumidifier for at least 10 minutes to fully discharge the board. Plug back in and check if E9 clears.
  • Check supply voltage: Ensure the outlet provides stable voltage within the specified range. Avoid using undersized extension cords or power strips.
  • Inspect control connections: Remove the control panel cover and check the ribbon cable or harness between the display board and main PCB. Reseat both ends.
  • Surge protection: If E9 appeared after a storm or power surge, the PCB may be damaged. Future use should include a surge protector.
  • Board replacement: If E9 persists, the EEPROM or microcontroller on the main PCB is likely faulty. Replace the main control board with a Cecotec-compatible part. This repair is best performed by a qualified technician.
