How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: If you need to remove the control panel, isolate the oven from mains power.
Steps to check:
- Child lock: Refer to the Tower manual and try the key combination to disable child lock (often holding a specific button for several seconds).
- Power reset: Turn off power for 5 minutes, then restore and test.
- Ribbon cable: Remove the control fascia and check that the ribbon cable between the touch panel and main PCB is firmly connected.
- Selector switch: On knob models, test the function selector switch for continuity in different positions. Replace if no contacts close.
