Possible Causes

Loose ribbon cable between touch control and main PCB, oxidized connectors, failed user interface board, failed main control board

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Isolate the oven from mains power before removing the control panel.

  • Access control panel: Remove the screws securing the front control panel (usually accessible after opening the door). Carefully pull the panel forward.
  • Inspect ribbon cables: Check the flat ribbon cable(s) between the display/touch panel and the main control board. Ensure they are fully inserted and not kinked or damaged.
  • Clean contacts: Gently clean edge connectors with isopropyl alcohol and a lint-free cloth. Reseat the cables firmly.
  • Check for moisture: Look for signs of steam or moisture ingress around the control panel. Dry thoroughly and ensure door seals are intact to prevent future ingress.
  • Board substitution: If connections are good but the error persists, either the user interface board or the main PCB is faulty. Replacement typically requires matching the exact Grundig part number and may need programming; consider professional service.

Warning: Do not power the oven with the control panel hanging loose where live parts may be exposed.
