Possible Causes
Moisture under touch panel, Worn keypad contacts, Loose ribbon cable, Cracked control panel PCB
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the cooker before cleaning the panel.
Try this:
- Clean the panel: Wipe the control panel with a soft, slightly damp cloth, then dry thoroughly. Do not spray cleaner directly onto the panel.
- Drying time: If liquid was spilled, leave the cooker unplugged for several hours to allow internal moisture to evaporate.
- Test individual keys: After drying, plug in and test each button. If only some keys fail, the keypad membrane or PCB is likely damaged.
Persistent keypad issues require replacement of the control panel assembly, which involves opening the housing and should be done by a technician.
