Possible Causes

Loose low-voltage ribbon cable between keypad and main PCB, Water ingress into Kripsol keypad module, Failed keypad membrane, Faulty main controller PCB

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect power before opening the control housing.

  • Inspect keypad cable: Remove the front cover of the Kripsol control panel. Locate the ribbon or plug-in cable from the keypad/display to the main PCB. Reseat both ends and ensure the locking tabs are engaged.
  • Check for moisture: Look for condensation or water marks inside the keypad area. If present, dry thoroughly and improve sealing (replace gasket, check cable glands).
  • Visual inspection: Examine the keypad for cracks or delamination. If buttons feel mushy or do not click, the membrane may be failing and should be replaced.
  • PCB fault: If E12 persists with a known-good keypad and cable, the main controller PCB is likely defective and must be replaced.

Because this involves proprietary electronics, sourcing the correct Kripsol keypad or PCB by model number is important.
