Possible Causes
Open-circuit main heating element, Burnt wiring to heater, Failed heater relay on PCB, Blown thermal cut-out on heater plate
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect the cooker from mains power. Do not attempt to bypass any safety devices.
- Check for burning smell: Smell around the base and side vents. A burnt odor may indicate a failed heater or wiring.
- Visual inspection (non-invasive): Remove the inner pot and inspect the heating plate for discoloration or cracks.
- Reset attempt: After cooling, plug in and try a low-temperature program. If E9 appears immediately, the heater circuit is likely open.
- Professional diagnosis: Testing the heating element requires opening the base and measuring resistance with a multimeter. The heater, thermal cut-out, or relay may need replacement. This involves high-voltage components and must be done by a qualified technician.
