Possible Causes
Failed induction coil (induction models), Open-circuit heating element (ceramic radiant models), Faulty zone relay or triac on power module, Loose wiring to specific zone
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Isolate the hob from mains before any internal inspection.
User checks:
- Test other zones to confirm the issue is limited to one area.
- For induction: try multiple compatible pans on the affected zone to rule out cookware issues.
Technician checks:
- For induction: measure resistance of the induction coil for the faulty zone; replace if open or shorted.
- For ceramic: test continuity of the radiant heating element; replace if open.
- Inspect wiring from the power module to the zone for loose connectors or heat damage.
- If wiring and element/coil are good, replace the power module or zone control board.
