Possible Causes

Corrupted control board firmware, Voltage spike or surge damage, Failed memory chip on main control, Poor grounding of appliance

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn off power at the breaker before accessing the control board.

  • Power cycle: Disconnect power for at least 15 minutes to allow capacitors to discharge, then restore power. Sometimes this clears minor memory errors.
  • Check grounding: Verify the outlet is properly grounded and that the power cord ground pin is intact.
  • Surge protection: If EC9 occurred after a storm or outage, consider using a high-quality surge protector rated for appliances once the unit is repaired.
  • If EC9 persists: The main control board firmware or memory is likely damaged. Replace the main control board with the correct Wolf part number for your model.
