How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the unit before removing the control panel.
Step-by-step checks:
- 1. Dry the panel: If the panel was recently cleaned, allow it to dry completely. Avoid spraying cleaner directly on the controls.
- 2. Reseat ribbon cable: Remove the front panel and reseat the ribbon cable between the user interface and main board.
- 3. Inspect for damage: Look for cracks or corrosion on the user interface PCB. Replace if damaged.
- 4. Test operation: Reassemble and test each button. If some buttons still fail, replace the entire control panel assembly.
When to call a technician: If both the interface and main board may be involved, professional diagnosis is recommended.
