Possible Causes

Loose ribbon cable between keypad and main PCB, Damaged touch panel, Moisture under control panel, Faulty display/control PCB

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the cooker before removing the control panel.

  • Dry the panel: If the panel was recently cleaned or exposed to steam, leave the cooker unplugged in a dry place for 12–24 hours to allow moisture to evaporate.
  • Check ribbon cable: Remove the front control panel cover (usually clipped or screwed). Locate the flat ribbon cable from the keypad to the PCB. Gently unplug and reinsert it to clean the contacts.
  • Inspect for damage: Look for cracks in the plastic keypad overlay or corrosion on the connector pins.
  • Reset: Reassemble, plug in, and perform a factory reset if the model supports it (often by holding specific buttons as described in the manual).

If E10 or erratic behavior continues, the keypad membrane or control PCB may need replacement as an assembly.
