Multicooker displays E2 and refuses to start or aborts cooking shortly after heating begins.
Safety Warning
This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.
If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.
Possible Causes
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the cooker and let it cool completely. Do not attempt to operate with an active E2 error.
Inspection and correction:
- Remove the inner pot and check for any liquid spills or food residue around the center sensor area on the heater plate. Wipe thoroughly with a dry cloth and allow to air dry.
- Turn the unit over and remove the bottom cover screws to access the wiring.
- Locate the bottom NTC sensor harness and inspect for signs of moisture, corrosion, or melted insulation. Dry any moisture with a lint-free cloth.
- If you have a multimeter and are qualified, measure the resistance of the NTC sensor at room temperature. A reading near 0 Ω indicates a shorted sensor and it must be replaced.
- Inspect the harness for crushed or pinched sections where the two conductors may be touching. Repair or replace the harness if damaged.
- If the sensor measures within normal range but E2 persists, the main control board’s sensor input circuit may be faulty and require replacement.
Note: Do not bypass or short the sensor to clear the error; this is unsafe and can cause overheating.
