Possible Causes

Unstable mains frequency, Inverter synchronization fault, Defective mains sensing circuit on power board

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Do not attempt to modify mains frequency. This error often requires professional diagnosis.

  • Check for generators or inverters: If the appliance is powered from a generator or inverter, ensure it provides a stable 50 Hz output compatible with Candy specifications.
  • Test on standard supply: Connect the cooktop to a normal household supply (if currently on alternative power). If E17 disappears, the issue is with the supply.
  • Inspect power board: If on normal mains and E17 persists, the mains sensing circuit on the power module may be defective. Replace the power module.
