Possible Causes
Moisture on glass surface, Grease or dirt on touch area, Faulty touch control PCB, Electrical noise or poor grounding
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect power before internal work; user-level cleaning can be done with power off.
- Clean surface: Thoroughly clean the glass control area with a non-abrasive cleaner and dry completely.
- Power reset: Turn off the hob at the breaker for 5–10 minutes, then restore power.
- Check for moisture: Ensure there is no condensation under the glass (from boiling pots). Allow time to dry if necessary.
- Inspect touch PCB: If issues persist, remove the hob and inspect the touch control panel PCB for cracks, corrosion, or loose connectors. Replace if defective.
- Grounding: Verify that the hob is properly earthed; poor grounding can cause erratic touch behavior.
