What to do when Er shows on the stove

### Kind of code Stovetop elements

A burner on an electric or induction stovetop did not heat the way the knob or key asked, heated with nothing set, or ran hotter than the setting. The pan, a lock left on and the switch behind the knob are checked before the element under the glass, its limiter or an induction board is changed. If a burner keeps heating after it has been switched off, turn the stove's breaker off before anything else.

### Usually leads to Glass stovetop repair

Smooth glass stovetops on electric and induction stoves with a cold circle, a cracked or chipped top, or a hot-surface light that stays on, repaired under the glass or with a new top.

### Shows up as Stove 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.

### Make AGA

A British name in home cooking, part of the Middleby group, best known for the cast-iron stove that stays warm all day.

### Source AGA Elise 36 Induction owner's guide

01

Note the complete code, the number after Er as well.

02

## Questions about Er.

### Can I clear Er myself?

Note the complete code, the number after Er as well. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### What does Er 03 mean on my AGA induction top?

AGA does not publish meanings for the numbers after Er. It classes every Er code as an internal problem the owner cannot fix, so note the full code and book a visit.

### Can I clear an Er code on my AGA Elise by turning it off at the breaker?

The guide gives no reset for Er. A power cycle may make it disappear briefly, but the underlying problem remains, so book a visit.

### Does an Er code on my AGA Mercury stop the oven too?

The code comes from the induction top. Whether the oven still works depends on the problem, so try it carefully and mention what still runs when you book.
