Possible Causes
Incorrect pan placement across flex zone, Faulty flex zone coil sensor, Loose coil harness, Power module firmware/configuration issue
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: External checks only unless you are a trained technician. Disconnect power before internal work.
- Reposition cookware: Ensure the pan covers the required area of the flex zone and is centered. Avoid placing very small pans across two coils.
- Use single large pan: For combined zones, use one large pan instead of two small ones.
- Power reset: Turn off the cooktop at the breaker for 5 minutes and retest.
- If Er36 persists on flex zone only: A technician should inspect the flex zone coil array and harness, and update or replace the power module if needed.
