Water, a spill or a pan resting on the key strip is ruled out first, then the touch board and its ribbon cable.

Restart with the Power key, then cut power for more than 30 seconds if F2 stays. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### Can a wet panel cause F2 on a Samsung? Samsung ties wet keys to d0. F2 points at the touch chip. ### What happens at a visit for F2? The touch control and its connection to the main board are tested. ### Is F2 on a Samsung NZ30 cooktop a problem with the touch chip or with my finger? Samsung describes F2 as the touch-enabled IC communicating abnormally, which points at the chip that reads the glass. How you press the keys does not cause it. If a restart and a power cycle do not clear it, the touch control needs checking. --- **[Read on the site: Samsung induction cooktop showing F2 | CooktopRepair.center](https://cooktoprepair.center/error-codes/samsung-f2/)** **[Book a visit with CooktopRepair.center](https://cooktoprepair.center/schedule/)**
