How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect power before working on the control panel.
- Clean keypad: Gently clean the keypad surface and edges to remove grease and debris that may bridge contacts.
- Inspect overlay: Check for physical damage, bubbling, or delamination of the keypad overlay.
- Ribbon cable check: Reseat the keypad ribbon cable on the control board and inspect for damage.
- Replace keypad: If F7 persists or random key presses are registered, replace the keypad or the entire control panel assembly.
- Control board: If a new keypad does not resolve F7, the control board's key scanning circuit is likely defective and the board must be replaced.
