How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the appliance before opening the housing.

  • Inspect ribbon cable: Remove the front panel and check the flat cable connecting the keypad to the PCB. Ensure it is fully inserted and not damaged.
  • Clean contacts: Use contact cleaner on the ribbon connectors if they appear oxidized.
  • Check for cracks: Examine the touch panel or button PCB for cracks or broken traces. Replace the keypad assembly if damaged.
  • Replace main PCB: If the keypad is good and U8 persists, the main board interface may be faulty and should be replaced.
