Model compatibility: Fisher & Paykel reuses codes across series and model years, so Cooktop E2 / EH may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What this code means
E2 or EH on the induction cooktop section of a Fisher & Paykel range is a zone-overheat condition; the zone shuts off for safety.
Signs
Symptoms you may notice
A halo/control indication may change even when cooking still works.
The cooktop and oven may behave independently.
An induction zone may shut down while the oven remains usable.
Gas ignition symptoms do not share the oven f-code path.
Important safety warning. Do not attempt repairs involving electrical components, gas, water lines, refrigerant or sealed systems. Unplug the appliance if it is safe to reach the outlet, and leave internal diagnostics to a qualified technician.

When to call a technician

Provide the full model number, the exact code or symptom, what the appliance was doing when it appeared, and whether the condition returned after any safe owner-level check.
