Possible Causes
Failed capacitive touch panel, Moisture intrusion behind control glass, Damaged ribbon cable, Faulty user interface PCB
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Disconnect power before removing the control panel or door trim.
Steps:
- Clean surface: Wipe the control glass with a soft, dry cloth. Moisture or residue can interfere with capacitive touch.
- Power reset: Unplug for 5–10 minutes, then reconnect. If E14 returns, proceed.
- Access interface: Remove screws securing the control panel or door trim to expose the touch PCB and ribbon cable.
- Inspect for moisture: Look for condensation or water marks. Dry thoroughly and allow time for evaporation.
- Check cable: Ensure the ribbon cable is fully seated and not damaged. Replace if creased or torn.
- Replace touch panel/interface: If buttons remain unresponsive or random inputs occur, replace the user interface/touch panel assembly.
