# Frigidaire Professional induction cooktop showing Er

Er shows when a zone was still switched on during a power failure longer than 10 seconds, or after a control action the cooktop does not accept.

## What Er actually means.

Er shows when a zone was still switched on during a power failure longer than 10 seconds, or after a control action the cooktop does not accept. Returning the knob to off resets that zone's controls.

What to do when Er shows on the cooktop

### Kind of code Touch 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 to Touch 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 as Cooktop 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.

### Make Frigidaire

One of the most common US kitchen makes, found in many homes and rentals with a built-in cooktop.

### Source Frigidaire Professional induction cooktop (PCCI3080AF) user manual

Knob-controlled Frigidaire Professional induction cooktops (the manual linked from the PCCI3080AF page); each knob has its own small display.

## Before you book, in this order.

Each step comes from Frigidaire's own guidance for Er on its cooktops. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Turn the affected knob to OFF, then set the zone again.

02

After an outage, turn every knob that was on back to OFF before cooking again.

03

If Er stays after the reset and the knob will not work, book a visit.

### Still there?

It usually turns into [touch control repair](https://cooktoprepair.center/services/touch-control-repair/). Book with the code and the model number.

### What not to do

Er is not the C code, which Frigidaire uses for a real problem in a zone. It is a reset request after a power failure or an unaccepted knob action, not a sign that the zone is broken.

## What you may notice with it.

The cooktop problems Er tends to arrive with. Answer these at the cooktop before anyone is booked.

## Questions about Er.

### Can I clear Er myself?

Turn the affected knob to OFF, then set the zone again. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### Why did every Frigidaire knob show Er after the power came back?

Zones left on during an outage longer than 10 seconds show Er so they do not restart by themselves.

### Is Er a reason to call for service?

Only when resetting the knob to OFF does not clear it.

### Why does one Frigidaire Professional knob show Er when there was no outage?

The manual also shows Er after a control action the cooktop does not accept, not only after a power failure. Setting that knob to OFF resets the surface controls for the zone. If Er stays and the knob does nothing afterward, book a visit.
