How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off the cooktop and allow it to cool completely before further use.

  • Remove hot items: Take off any large or oversized pans that may be trapping heat over the sensor area.
  • Check ventilation: Ensure there is adequate clearance under the cooktop and that vents are not blocked by insulation, drawers, or stored items.
  • Inspect cooling fan: On models with internal fans, listen for fan operation during use. If the fan does not run, disconnect power, remove the cooktop from the counter, and access the fan. Replace a non-operational cooling fan motor.
  • Sensor and coil check: With power off, inspect the temperature sensor attached to the coil or glass. Ensure it is firmly attached and wiring is intact. Replace the temperature sensor or coil module if damaged.
