Possible Causes
Blocked cooling fan vents, Failed cooktop cooling fan, Overheating power module, Incorrect cookware causing excessive heating
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power and allow the cooktop to cool before servicing.
- Check ventilation: Ensure there is adequate clearance under the cooktop per Ikea installation instructions. Remove any stored items blocking airflow to the cooling fan.
- Inspect fan operation: With power restored, turn on a burner at medium power and listen for the internal fan. If it does not run, access the fan from below and test for free rotation and continuity.
- Clean fan and vents: Remove dust and grease buildup from the fan blades and intake/exhaust vents using a soft brush and vacuum.
- Replace fan: If the fan is seized or open-circuit, replace the cooling fan assembly.
- Cookware check: Avoid using undersized or warped pans at maximum power for extended periods, as this can trigger over-temperature faults.
