What E_9
actually means.
KitchenAid lists E_9 among its induction codes for electronics that ran too hot. The control panel shuts down to protect the boards below the glass until they cool.

What to do when E_9 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 Fan Runs Constantly
The cooling fan under an induction or touch-control cooktop keeps running long after cooking, or a downdraft blower will not shut off or retract.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from KitchenAid's own guidance for E_9 on its cooktops. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Leave the cooktop off and let it cool completely.
Turn the breaker off for one minute, then back on, and watch for the code for a minute.
If E_9 keeps coming back, book a visit so the cooling path under the cooktop can be checked.

What not to do
E_9 is not about your pan. KitchenAid's page talks only about heat inside the cooktop.
