What E3
actually means.
E3 on the FCIND means a zone detected abnormally high supply voltage. The cooktop protects itself by stopping, and ZLINE's remedy is to confirm the power supply is normal and power-cycle the unit.

What to do when E3 shows on the cooktopKind of codeInduction power and coils
An induction zone could not drive its coil as the board planned: no pan was detected, the current ran too high or too low, or the power stage reported trouble. The pan base, the supply voltage and a clogged air intake are checked before the coil or the power board is replaced, and a top that trips its breaker is left switched off until then.
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 Tripping Breaker
The circuit breaker for the cooktop trips as a burner or zone switches on, at one particular setting, or a few minutes into cooking.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from ZLINE's own guidance for E3 on its cooktops. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Switch the cooktop off at the breaker.
If other things in the home are acting oddly too, the supply itself may be the issue; have it checked before using the cooktop.
If E3 returns after a power cycle, book a visit.
Still there?
It usually turns into induction board and coil repair. Book with the code and the model number.
What not to do
E3 is not a heat or pan problem, and cooling the cooktop will not clear it. It does not point to a broken pan sensor either; the reading is about the voltage coming into the zone.
