In each case something switches off and waits. It reads as a failure and it is the opposite. ### The ventilation gap These need the air gap the installation instructions specify, and the two things that most often remove it are a kitchen refitted around an existing cooktop and a drawer beneath it packed to the top. A top that has been overheating for a year eventually stops doing it politely. ### Gas and rangetops Gas tops speak a different language — an igniter clicking without catching, a burner cap a millimeter out of position, blocked ports after a boil-over, a flame lifting off the burner. The useful information is whether it is one burner or all of them: one is the burner, all of them is upstream. What this involves Zones cutting out under load Touch controls and the panel lock Induction modules and coil wiring Protection or failure Overheat, time limit, hot pan on the panel, panel lock — every one has its own code and every one is the appliance working. Half these calls end here. The ventilation gap The one under the counter that the installation instructions specify and a full drawer removes. A top that cuts out reliably after twenty minutes at high power is usually being suffocated. Supply, if the code says supply The voltage code is about the building, not the cooktop. We measure it rather than replacing anything, and sometimes the answer is an electrician. Then the electronics The generator module, the coil and the wiring between them. Modules are the expensive half of this appliance and worth diagnosing rather than swapping.
