Possible Causes
Shorted IGBT on induction power board, Incorrect or damaged cookware causing overcurrent, Blocked cooling for induction module, Internal power board failure
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect power at the breaker. Induction modules store high voltage; do not touch capacitors immediately after power-off.
- Check cookware: Ensure you are using flat-bottomed, induction-compatible cookware of the correct size for the zone. Remove any warped or oversized pans.
- Ventilation: Confirm that the cooktop ventilation openings are not blocked by cabinetry, liners, or debris. Clean any dust from intake and exhaust vents.
- Power reset: Leave power off for 10–15 minutes to allow the induction module to discharge, then restore power and test the zone.
- If F50 returns on the same zone: The induction power module for that zone is likely faulty. Replacement involves removing the cooktop from the bench, opening the chassis, and replacing the specific Fisher & Paykel induction power board.
- Technician recommended: Due to high-voltage electronics, this repair is best performed by a qualified technician.
