How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the cooker before any disassembly.
- Power reset: Unplug the multicooker for at least 10 minutes to allow capacitors to discharge. Plug back in and test.
- Check keypad: Wipe the control panel with a slightly damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Ensure no buttons are physically stuck or pressed in.
- Inspect ribbon cable: If you open the front panel, check the flat ribbon cable between the keypad/display and main PCB. Reseat both ends.
- Factory reset: Some Sencor models support a reset sequence (e.g., holding specific buttons while plugging in). Refer to the service or user manual and perform the reset if available.
- Replace PCB: If ERR persists, the control PCB may be defective and require replacement.
