Fagor 2VFT-400s Touch Sensitive Hob

[meathome]

We have a Fagor Innova (2VFT-400s) halogen hob. I turned it off at the wall yesterday (it was working 100{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d}) but when I turned it back on today it does not reset itself correctly.

Upon power-up the hob obviously performs some kind of self test where all the led’s and segment displays around the touch sensitive buttons light up for a second or so then go out again. At this stage you can then turn on and use the hob.

As it is now the hob is just ‘hung’ with all the leds etc on and going no further.

Very little inside apart from a power board and another PCB with all the switch and indicator electronics.

The hob is just over three years old if that makes any difference.

Anyone any ideas of what I need to fix it?

Cheers

Well I made a little progress (well a lot in some ways) towards fixing this hob. I took the glass off and with a domestic hairdryer heated the power board and electronics until they were quite warm (to check for dry/bad joints). I then turned on mains power to the hob and hey presto it worked!

One thing, now the LED Segments that show the heat setting of each of the four rings indicate what must be some sort of error number. From left to right the four segments show F 4 0 8 for a second or so when mains power is applied to the hob. After this, and when the hob has done its reset, function seems to be as normal.

Do any of you engineers know what the F 4 0 8 error message means on the Fagor 2VFT-400s Touch Sensitive Hob?

Thanks

Hi,

I’ve had a look for you and I can’t see any info on this machine that would be of any help. In fact, all the documentation I can find is in Spanish or French but none of it looks to have any fault code info at all so unless someone happens to know you might be scuppered. 🙁

Well me being scuppered is nothing new! Smile

Apart from the error message on the rare times you turn off and then on at the mains the hob functions 100{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d}.

I’m tempted to let this sleeping dog carry on snoozing I think.

Thanks for looking for me.
