What actually causes this:

The lid is not fully closed, or the lid lock mechanism is worn out

How to Fix

  1. 1

    1. Check the Reed Switch resistance — normal: approximately 0.2 Ohm between terminals (Checking Part: White-Green Wire)

  2. 2

    2. Check if the error occurs during the boiling course — as this error occurs because the door is opened, close the door

  3. 3

    3. Since 120V power is connected, check if the door switch is defective, or the power cord is disconnected — check and repair the insulation status if necessary

  4. 4

    4. Check the door lock/unlock motor resistance — normal: 33 Ohm to 46 Ohm between terminals (Checking Part: Black-Brown Wire)

  5. 5

    5. If the main PBA door detection circuit is defective, replace it
