How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect from mains for at least 10 minutes.

Steps:

  • Hard reset: Unplug, wait, then plug back in and attempt to select a basic program.
  • Try another outlet: Use a different wall socket to rule out supply issues. Avoid extension cords.
  • Surge protection: If the error appeared after a power cut or surge, consider using a surge protector in the future.

If P1 persists, the control board firmware or memory is likely damaged. This requires PCB replacement or reprogramming by an authorized Moulinex service center.
