Microwave shows E016 and the display is very dim or flickers.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Failed display backlight driver on PCB, Loose display ribbon cable, Aging VFD/LED display module, Low-voltage supply instability

Safety: Disconnect from mains before removing the control panel.

Checks:

Remove the control panel fascia to access the display module and its ribbon cable.
Reseat the ribbon cable between the display and the main PCB.
Inspect the display PCB for dry joints or heat damage.
If the display remains dim or flickers, replace the display module or the entire control panel assembly, depending on how Neff supplies the part.

If a new display does not resolve the issue, the main PCB's low-voltage supply is likely faulty and the board should be replaced.
