What this code means
F43
A possible power control board or wiring problem.

Step by step
- Begin by killing power: breaker(s) off, one minute.
- Next, power the unit up by turning the breaker(s) on.
- Monitor for one minute to be sure the code stays cleared.
- Confirm the cooktop is operating normally.
Once F43 returns despite the reset, hand it to a technician.
No series is singled out; F43 is listed for electric and induction cooktops.
