How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn off power before cleaning or disassembling.

  • Clean keypad: With power off, clean the keypad with a soft cloth lightly dampened with mild soap solution. Do not allow liquid to run into edges.
  • Dry thoroughly: Allow several hours of drying time with the door open and power off if a spill occurred.
  • Test keys: Restore power and test each key. If one key triggers the error or does not respond, the keypad is likely defective.
