What ER03
actually means.
ER03 is a whole-cooktop code: something is lying on the touch interface, usually a boil-over or a pan pushed onto the control strip. After about 10 seconds of that contact, the cooktop shuts down rather than act on keys nobody meant to press.

What to do when ER03 shows on the cooktopKind of codeTouch controls and keys
A key on the glass was held down too long, pressed with nothing there, or stopped answering altogether. Water, a spill or a pan resting on the key strip is ruled out first, then the touch board and its ribbon cable. If a zone keeps heating while the keys are dead, switch the cooktop off at the breaker.
Usually leads toTouch control repair
Glass touch keys and sliders that ignore a finger, start zones by themselves or stay locked, traced to the keys, the control board or the lock setting.
Shows up asCooktop Controls Unresponsive
Touch keys or a slider do nothing, the display lights but ignores every press, or a knob turns without starting its burner or element.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from Bertazzoni's own guidance for ER03 on its cooktops. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Move any pan off the control area and wipe the glass over the keys completely dry.
Keep pans on the cooking zones and well back from the control strip, so nothing overhangs the keys when you start cooking again.
Switch the cooktop back on; if ER03 returns with the controls clean and dry, book a visit so the touch interface can be tested.
What not to do
ER03 is not a coil or power-board report. The cooktop is reacting to what is sitting on its keys, so the cooking zones themselves are not what it is complaining about.

about ER03.
Can I clear ER03 myself?
Why did my Bertazzoni cooktop show ER03 right after a pot boiled over?
Can a pan handle resting on the controls cause ER03?
Does ER03 on a Bertazzoni PE304T or PE365T cooktop stop only one zone?
