What does error code L means on the delonghi cooktop
The L indicates that the child lock feature has been enabled. This ensures that the burners do not function while you clean the cook top and that a child can't turn on any burners.
The procedure depends on your cook top model. For some induction models, to toggle the child lock feature off, press the front right burner zone display and the booster function key (circle with a solid circle inside on the right of the selector zone) simultaneously. Then press the front right burner zone display again until the L disappears from the display.
See page 23 of the manual for the Delonghi DEIND804 available here:
https://www.appliancesonline.com.au/public/manuals/Delonghi-DEIND804-Induction-Cooktop-User-Manual.pdf .
For an electric ceramic cooktop DTCH808, to turn off the child lock completely, press the bottom right + in a circle and the - in a circle (in the center surrounded by 4 of the + in a circle areas) simultaneously and then release the keys. Press the - in a circle again. See page 21 of the manual here: https://www.delonghi.com/Global/InstructionManuals/EN/EN-DTCH80B_im.pdf .
I hope this helps. Please add a comment with the model of your Delonghi cook top if these instructions do not apply to your cook top.

My defy slimline cooktop shows ER42 but I changed the capacitors, what is wrong?
The ER42 error code typically indicates an issue related to insufficient power being delivered to the ceramic element.
Check Power Supply: Ensure that the cooktop is receiving adequate power. Verify that the power supply is stable and not fluctuating.
Inspect the PCB (Printed Circuit Board): Since the error points to a fault on the PCB, visually inspect the control board for any signs of damage, loose connections, or burnt components.
Capacitors: You mentioned that you've already changed the capacitors. While this is a good step, it's essential to ensure that the new capacitors are correctly installed with the same rating and polarity.
Reset the Cooktop: Turn off the power to the cooktop completely. Disconnect it from the mains for a few minutes, then reconnect it and power it back on. Sometimes, a reset can clear minor glitches.
No joy? Consider professional repair.

Jenn Air C221 element only goes to high?
Based on the symptoms described, it is possible that the issue lies with the ceramic element that the burners connect to at the back of the burner unit. This could be causing a short circuit between the two burners, which is preventing the large burner from being adjusted lower when both burners are on.
It is also possible that there is an issue with the wiring or connections between the two burners, which is causing a similar short circuit. However, given that the smaller burner appears to be working fine, this seems less likely.
Another potential cause of this issue could be a problem with the control board or another component of the stove's electrical system. However, given that replacing the infinite switch and receptacle for the large burner did not resolve the issue, it seems less likely that this is the root cause.
In order to determine the exact cause of this issue, it may be necessary to consult with a professional appliance repair technician who can diagnose and repair the stove.
