Electronic Surface Element Control System (ESEC) Error Code Descriptions When a specific error condition occurs in the ESEC system a code will be displayed in the electronic control panel. The error codes are displayed as "EO" in the left display followed by the code number in the right display. For each Error Code there is a listing of the likely cause or failure condition, as well as suggested corrective actions to be taken. Always reset the power by disconnecting or turning off the power supply for 30 seconds to see if the failure condition will clear. If the error code returns perform the steps one at a time in the order listed below to correct the specific failure condition. NOTE: If multiple changing error codes are displayed check for disconnected wires or cables. EOC = Electronic Oven Control UIB = User Interface Board VSC = Variable Speed Control Tech Sheet Abbreviations and Terminology ESEC = Electronic Surface Element Control TST = Touch Sensor Technology (touch control glass panel) TSEC = Touch Sensor Electronic Control RTD = Resistance Temperature Device. (Temp Probe or Temp Sensor) PS = Power Supply board (PS1 , PS2, etc.) TCO = Thermal Cut Out also "Thermo Disc" or "Thermal Limiter" Error Code 11 13 14 15 20/27 21/28 23 30, 35 31, 32, 34, 36, 37, 40 33 38 39 41 42, 43 44 45 51 52 55 56 63 64 67 68 70 75 Likely Cause or Failure Condition Suggested Corrective Action Stuck key 1.
