Possible Causes

Open or shorted induction coil, Damaged IGBT on power module, Burnt wiring between coil and module, Faulty current sensing circuit

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect the cooktop from mains power before removing it from the countertop. High-voltage capacitors may retain charge; only trained personnel should work on the power stage.

Technician steps:

  • Remove the cooktop and access the underside.
  • Visually inspect the induction coil for cracks, burn marks, or detached windings.
  • Check the wiring harness and connectors from the coil to the power module.
  • Measure coil resistance and compare with Siemens specifications.
  • Inspect the power module for blown components; replace the module or coil as required.

This repair involves live power electronics and should be performed by a Siemens-authorized technician.
