Integrated luxury convection oven and induction cooktop with illuminated touch controls
Oven

Symptom / Description

FAULT

The water in the tub remains cold, the washing results are poor and the cycle ends with an error.

TELEMETRY // LIVESIG: FAULT_DETECTED

Root Cause

ROOT CAUSE

The main heating element (immersion heater) is out of order, its power supply is faulty, or a water level sensor is not allowing heating.

CIRCUIT // SUBSYSTEMLOGIC: ROOT_ISOLATED

Repair Instructions

UNLOCKED
1Turn off and unplug the device for any work. 2. A technician should measure the resistance of the immersion heater with a multimeter. 3. He will also check the wiring and safety components related to the heating.

1. Pre-Intervention Electrical Safety Protocols
  • !Electrical Safety Protocol: Cut 230V mains power before accessing the upper chassis or pressure switch terminals.
  • !Drain appliance tub completely before disconnecting pressure switch sensing hoses.
  • !Never blow high-pressure compressed air into electronic analog pressure sensors: internal diaphragms will rupture!
3. Preliminary Mechanical & Visual Checks
  • Disconnect the silicone pressure tube from the lower air trap and inspect for soap sludge, lint, or water blockage.
  • Inspect the flexible rubber hose along its entire length for pinholes, cracks, or loose clamp fit.
  • Thoroughly flush the lower compression chamber (air dome) with hot water to dissolve detergent buildup.
