Electrolux Hobs
15 fault codes documented
2-circuit coil has no power
A 2-circuit coil is not receiving power. This typically points to an issue with the inner circuit of the coil or its connection.
Cooking zone automatically switched off
If a cooking level is not changed for a certain time, the zone automatically switches off. This is a safety feature to prevent prolonged operation without user interaction.
Triple beep and 'DEMO' display — Hob in demonstration mode
The hob emits a triple beep and displays 'DEMO' on the screen. This indicates the appliance is in demonstration mode, often used in stores, where it operates without power output.
Double beep — Pot not detected or unsuitable
A double beep sounds when the hob attempts to detect a pot. This indicates that either no pot is present, or the pot placed on the cooking zone is not suitable for induction cooking.
Double circuit coil displays '?' and power level, no power, clicking sound
On a double circuit coil, the display alternates between '?' and the power level, but no power is supplied to the pot, and a clicking sound is heard, similar to using non-magnetic pots.
Dummy NTC (thermistor) defect
An internal component referred to as 'Dummy NTC', likely a temperature sensor or thermistor, is detected as defective. This is an internal component fault.
E3 — Over voltage due to wrong connection
The display shows E3, indicating an over-voltage condition. This usually happens because the appliance's power connection is incorrectly wired, leading to an unsafe voltage supply. A continuous signal might also sound upon startup.
E4 — Over temperature detected or sensor defect at cooking zone
The E4 error indicates that a temperature sensor in one of the cooking coils has detected an excessively high temperature, or that the sensor itself is defective. This could be due to prolonged use, or a fault in the sensor or coil.
E6 — Induction module power board defect
The E6 error indicates a problem with the power board within one of the induction modules (left or right side). This typically points to an internal electronic failure within the hob.
E7 — Module cooling fan issue (zones may still operate)
The E7 error indicates that a cooling fan on either the left or right induction module is not operating correctly or is blocked. Fans are crucial for dissipating heat during operation, but the cooking zones may still function for a time.
E8 — Communication or connection failure
The E8 error signals a connection failure between the left and right induction modules and the user interface. This could also indicate an internal issue with the user interface itself, or problems with specific module power. The error might appear on left zones or all zones.
Audible signal but no display after 10 seconds
When the hob is switched on, an audible signal sounds, but no information appears on the display within 10 seconds. This suggests an issue with the internal 14V voltage supply or the user interface.
Appliance not operating — No power or internal fault
The hob does not turn on or operate at all. This can stem from a lack of voltage, a defect in a power board, or an issue with the interface or wiring.
Minute Minder sound — Set time elapsed
The hob produces an audible sound when the set time on the Minute Minder function elapses. This is an alert that your timed period is over.
Cooking zone not functioning, displays '?'
A specific cooking zone does not function, and its display shows '?'. This often indicates a problem with the coil or its connection.
