What CE
actually means.
An eR7 has two control boards: the touch panel near the top and the main board in the base, joined by a communication cable that runs inside the cooker. CE means the panel has lost its conversation with the main board, so the cable and its two sockets are the first things suspected.
AGA stove display
What to do when CE shows on the stoveKind of codeControl board and power
The main board failed its own start-up check, lost contact with the display, or saw the supply voltage sag too low, often after a storm, a power outage or a spill that ran down behind the panel. The breaker, the cord and the outlet are ruled out before a board is replaced. A stove that sparks, smells of hot wiring or keeps heating while this code shows is switched off at the breaker first.
Usually leads toControl board and display repair
Stoves with a blank or flashing display, touch keys that do not answer, codes that keep returning or a stove that will not turn on, traced to the board, the keypad or the power to them.
Shows up asStove Error Code
The stove shows letters and numbers, a flashing symbol or a short message, beeps, and the oven or a burner stops or will not start.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from AGA's own guidance for CE on its stoves. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Note CE and whether anyone has recently moved the cooker or worked behind its panels.
Check that the cooker has power at all: other lights, the handset link and the breaker.
Book a visit so the communication cable and both sockets can be checked before either board is blamed.
Still there?
It usually turns into control board and display repair. Book with the code and the model number.
What not to do
CE does not mean a plate or oven element has failed. It is a break in communication between two boards, and the elements may be perfectly fine once the link is restored.

Questions
about CE.
Can I clear CE myself?
My AGA eR7 showed CE right after it was moved. Are the two linked?
Is CE on an AGA eR7 the same as the handset losing its signal?
Will the AGA eR7 keep heating while CE is showing?

Still showing CE?
Book with the code written exactly as the stove shows it, the full model number, and whether you notice any smell of gas or hot wiring — when there is a code, that is where the diagnosis starts.
