What E2
actually means.
E2 on a JennAir induction cooktop means the internal temperature of the electronic parts is too high, so the control panel switches off. JennAir notes that starting a zone under an empty pan can set it off.

What to do when E2 shows on the cooktopKind of codeTemperature and overheat sensors
A sensor under the glass or on a board reported a reading the control rejected, or heat climbing past the safe limit — often after an empty pan was left on a zone. The zone is allowed to cool and a loose sensor plug is ruled out before the sensor, the coil assembly or the board is blamed. A top that keeps getting hotter is switched off at the breaker first.
Usually leads toInduction board and coil repair
Induction zones that stop sensing pans, cut out, buzz or show codes, traced to the power boards, the coils, their sensors and the links to the controls.
Shows up asCooktop Element Not Heating
A coil stays black, a radiant ring under the glass never glows, or a zone warms so weakly that a pot of water will not boil.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from JennAir's own guidance for E2 on its cooktops. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Turn the zone off and take the pan away.
Let the cooktop cool, then add food or liquid to the pan before starting again.
If E2 returns, switch the breaker off for one minute, back on, and watch for a minute; book a visit if it reappears.

What not to do
E2 is not a pan-detection message and does not mean a coil has failed. It reports heat in the electronic parts under the glass.
