Possible Causes
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Switch off power at the breaker for at least 10 minutes.
Reset and observe:
- After 10 minutes, restore power and set the clock.
- Check if E13 reappears or if the clock resets when starting a cooking cycle.
Inspect control panel:
- Check for stuck or damaged buttons on the touch panel.
- Clean the panel surface and edges to remove grease or debris that may cause false presses.
If the error persists, the main control board (clock/EEPROM) is likely faulty and should be replaced. Use the exact Midea part number for your model.
