What do error codes E51, E52, and E53 indicate?

• Error code E13 error showing on display
• What causes an E13, E 13 error code on the Induction Cooktop control panel?
• Error code 13 on Induction Cooktop control panel

Cause:

• Universal OFF key failure

Troubleshooting:

1. If the controls are wet or water made contact with them, dry off the controls.
2. Turn off then back on to reset.
3. If the error persists, reset the unit at the circuit breaker.
4. Turn the unit back on to see if the error code cleared.

Hello Heidi, thank you for your post!
From my understanding your Electrolux cooktop is displaying an error code of 8.8. The error code of 8.8 means there is a shift register issue on the middle touch board. This could a possible issue with the control board or the middle touch board. You may need to have a professional technician out to your home for proper diagnosis. We hope this information is helpful to your repair. -Matt

Hi Dolores, I understand that your cooktop will not turn on after receiving an error code "40". Usually this error code can indicate a communication error between the Induction Module, Relay Board, and Control Board. I would also recommend doing a hard reset by unplugging or turning the household power breaker off to the appliance for five to ten minutes. If the problem persists, please reach out to a professional technician. Hope this helps! -JK

Hello Michelle, thank you for your inquiry!

Typically error code F7 indicates that your Frigidaire range is experiencing a failure with either the potentiometer or UIB (User Interface Board). Let's try resetting you range by unplugging it or flipping the household circuit breaker off. This usually clears most false error codes. It is best to wait approximately ten minutes and then turn on your appliance. If the error code persists, it would be advisable to contact an experienced appliance repair tech to assist further.

Best regards - Z

I had two elements flashing "F" the correction was turning off the cooktop breaker and returning it to ON. Simple fix.

Hi Sue -- when you switched the breaker, how long did you leave it off before switching it back on? Generally, it's a good idea to leave the breaker off (or unplug the unit) for a full 30 seconds before switching the unit back on. If you did have it off for 30 seconds and the error code came on after that point, then it may possibly be a relay isse. That will more than likely require a visit from an authorized servicer to properly diagnose the cooktop. Hopefully the 30-second test prevails and the issue is resolved. Best of luck!

Problem: Error codes 26 or 42 after turning on too many heating elements.
Potential issue: Damaged main electronic board


Specific case: Error code 42 after turning on more than 3 elements, then already after 2, 1 until none of the cooking element could be turned on, over a period of a few weeks.
Root cause: Dying/blown electrolytic capacitor on the main electronics board.


Solution:
1) Turn off power (circuit breaker) - caution high voltage inside the cooktop
2) Lift the cooktop out of the hole in the countertop and slide it on a flat surface
3) Remove all screws around the metal housing using a torx screwdriver
4) Carefully tilt the glass top out of the housing on the front, noting that there are electrical connections in the rear, and place the rear end of the glass on a stable surface. You may need someone's assistance here.
5) After double-checking that there is no power, record the color coding of the four wires connected to the glass assembly (green for ground, white, black, red from left to right)
6) Next open the black plastic cover by removing four Torx screws.
7) Carefully remove from the connector on the left the the plastic strip connecting to the display board.
8) Carefully remove the circuit board with relays and capacitors that is held in place by plastic tabs.
9) If one of the capacitors is bulging out or showing sings of damage on top, replacing it may fix the appliance. De-soldering a bad capacitor requires some tools and skill. Replace the capacitor with at least the same capacity, voltage and use high-temp. 105C version) Alternatively, instead of replacing a $2 component you will have to replace the entire board.
10) Reassemble and done.

Where did you smell the smell was it from the fan switch. turn the power off and take the screw out of where the fan switch is and check the wires to the switch and the switch itself. sometimes the jennair cooktops have issues with that switch. let me know how it goes

I hade a code 153 also. Changed the element(costly-$200) and had to recalibrate the pan sensors(in the manual). All works fine now.

This is what Sub-Zero has to say (sounds like techno-gibberish)
Looks like it's technician time -
