Possible Causes

Loose harness between the UI and main PCB, corroded connector pins, failed display board, failed main control PCB.

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety First: Unplug the unit before accessing any control boards.

Procedure:

  • Access controls: Remove the front control panel to expose the user interface (UI) board and its wiring harness to the main control.
  • Check connections: Disconnect and reconnect the harness plugs several times to remove oxidation from the pins. Ensure that the locking tabs engage securely.
  • Inspect for damage: Look for burnt components, moisture damage, or cracked solder joints on both boards.
  • Board substitution: If the wiring is intact, replace the display/UI board first (this is often easier and cheaper). If E14 persists, replace the main control PCB.
