What HE Means
A steady HE in a cooktop display when the zone is cold and switched off points at a coil temperature sensor defect on Electrolux induction ranges. The manual tests the coil sensor at about 1,000 ohms at room temperature and replaces the coil or the generator board.
Common Causes of HE
- Coil temperature sensor failed
- Generator board failure
🔧 One Safe Check You Can Try
Make sure the zone really is cold. A hot-surface indicator after cooking is normal and goes out as the glass cools.
⚠ Why You Shouldn't Go Further Than That
- The coil is replaced from under the glass.
- Generator boards need safe handling.
Opening a panel to inspect or repair something yourself doesn't automatically cancel your manufacturer's warranty — but it can risk accidental damage, and some manufacturers do have specific service conditions. Check your product's warranty terms, or ask us, before deciding.
