How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit before accessing the control panel.

Steps to stabilize display operation:

  • Check power source: Plug the unit directly into a wall outlet (no extension cord) and avoid sharing the circuit with heavy appliances.
  • Inspect UI connections: Remove the top or front panel to access the display or keypad board. Reseat the ribbon cable or harness connectors.
  • Dry moisture: If condensation or spills have reached the control panel, dry the area thoroughly before reassembly.
  • Replace control board if needed: If flickering persists, the main control PCB or display board may be failing and should be replaced.
