Possible Causes

Failed capacitive touch sensor panel, Moisture behind glass control surface, Loose or damaged touch panel ribbon cable, Faulty user interface PCB

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Disconnect power before removing the control panel.

Steps to address E13:

  • Clean control surface: Wipe the glass or plastic control area with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid excessive moisture or cleaning sprays that can seep behind the panel.
  • Dry out moisture: If the panel has been exposed to steam or spills, leave the door open and allow the area to dry for several hours with power off.
  • Inspect ribbon cable: Remove the control panel trim and check the flat cable connecting the touch panel to the display or main PCB. Reseat the cable carefully.
  • Test operation: Restore power and test the controls. If E13 remains and buttons are unresponsive, replace the touch control panel or user interface PCB with a Neff-compatible part.
  • Further diagnosis: If a new panel does not resolve the issue, the main control PCB may be faulty and should be replaced by a professional.
