Possible Causes

Moisture or grease on touch area, Cracked glass over control panel, Faulty touch sensor IC, Loose ribbon cable between UI and power board

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Immediate steps:

  • Switch the hob off using the main power key if possible.
  • Clean and dry the control area thoroughly.
  • Turn off power at the mains for 2–3 minutes, then restore and test.

If still unresponsive:

  • Inspect the glass for visible cracks; if cracked, the glass top must be replaced (often together with the touch sensors).
  • Internal inspection (technician): check the ribbon cable between the touch control PCB and power module for secure connection.
  • If connections are sound, replace the touch control PCB.
