Possible Causes

Loose keypad ribbon cable, Damaged touchpad membrane, Failed control board keypad interface

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety First: Turn off power at the breaker before accessing the control panel.

  • Reseat ribbon cable: Remove the control panel trim and locate the flat ribbon cable from the keypad to the control board. Disconnect and reconnect it firmly, ensuring it is fully seated and straight.
  • Inspect for damage: Look for cracks, kinks, or burn marks on the ribbon. If damaged, the keypad/control panel assembly must be replaced.
  • Test operation: Restore power and test all buttons. If E1 returns or some keys do not respond, replace the keypad assembly.
  • Control board replacement: If a new keypad does not resolve the error, the control board's keypad interface is likely faulty and the board should be replaced.
