Possible Causes
• Temperature sensor failure or malfunction on the cooktop surface
• Overheating protection triggered due to prolonged high-temperature operation
• Faulty temperature control circuit in the control board
• Poor electrical connection at sensor terminals
• Cookware left on burner too long causing internal temperature threshold to exceed safe limits
• Inadequate ventilation around the cooktop causing heat buildup
• Power supply voltage irregularities or fluctuations
• Defective control panel circuit board detecting false temperature readings
• Blocked cooling vents underneath or around the cooktop unit
✅
Safety Checks You Can Do
• Power cycle the cooktop: Turn off the main power switch and unplug the unit for 60 seconds, then plug back in and power on
• Allow the cooktop to cool completely for at least 30 minutes before attempting to use it again
• Verify the cooktop has proper ventilation by checking that all air vents are clear and unobstructed
• For induction cooktops: Ensure you are using ferromagnetic cookware (test with a magnet) that is compatible with induction surfaces
• Clean the cooktop surface thoroughly with a dry cloth to remove any spills, debris, or moisture
• Check that your home's electrical outlet is functioning properly by plugging in another appliance
• Verify the power cord is fully inserted into the outlet and shows no visible damage
• Inspect the cooktop surface for any cracks, damage, or warping that could affect sensor operation
• Avoid using the cooktop at maximum heat settings for extended periods
