# Wolf induction cooktop error code E5

### What this one means

The board that switches the appliance's loads, or the one that drives the display, has reported an internal error, on an induction cooktop, where the generator under each zone is a power supply in its own right and reports for itself. It is a code the manufacturer publishes for this appliance, not one we have worked out — and it is decoded here rather than left as three characters on a display.

### What the code covers

A published cause names a circuit rather than a component, which is the single most useful thing to know before ordering a part. This one covers:

- The relay board behind the appliance
- The control head behind the fascia
- The harness between them
- Relay error

### Worth doing before you call

- Note whether one zone is affected or all of them — each has its own generator
- Switch the breaker off for thirty seconds and back on, and see whether the code returns

### Then what

A board error that survives a power cycle is a part. Which board is worth knowing before anybody orders anything, and the code is what says which.

This code is published for cooktops & rangetops. The [full list of codes](https://wolfmiami.support/error-codes/) has the rest of them, searchable, including the labels older and newer machines use for the same conditions.
