How to Fix

  1. 1

    1. Check whether the Power switch or any other button is continually pressed

  2. 2

    2. Check the contact between the control panel buttons and their corresponding tact switch

  3. 3

    3. Check whether the screws holding the service PBA are fastened too tight — if they are, loosen them a little. There must be a gap between a control panel button and its corresponding micro switch

  4. 4

    4. If the main PBA has a switching IC on/off error, replace the main PBA

  5. 5

    5. Check the connections — if there is no error in the connections passed, replace the main PBA
