How to Fix

  1. 1

    1. Check the Reed SW resistance — Checking Part: White-Green Wire, Resistance: approximately 0.2 Ohms between terminals of Reed SW

  2. 2

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

  3. 3

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

  4. 4

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