KitchenAid Range vent hood touchpad doesn't work

If your KitchenAid range vent hood touchpad doesn't work, the touchpad is the most likely cause, especially when some keypad buttons respond while others do not. This is a common reason for a KitchenAid vent hood control panel not responding or a stove control touchpad not working. If the buttons still do not operate after testing, the user control and display board may be defective. When none of the keypad buttons work, the main control board is more likely at fault. Before replacing a control board, verify that the vent hood is receiving power. KitchenAid range vent hoods may be hardwired to the circuit breaker or plugged into an outlet behind the cover panel, so check for a tripped breaker or test an accessible outlet with another small appliance. A separate KitchenAid control board can also fail when power reaches the board, and replacing both the control board and touchpad may be recommended when they are separate parts. Disconnect power before testing or replacing components. Enter your KitchenAid range vent hood model number to find the exact touchpad, user control and display board, main control board, or control panel replacement part for your appliance.

04 - Incoming Power Problem

Vent hoods are typically hardwired to the circuit breaker box, but they can also be plugged into a wall outlet behind the cover panel. In either case, it may be difficult to test the incoming power to the vent hood without removing a large cover panel. If the unit is plugged into an accessible wall outlet you can plug another small appliance into the outlet to confirm there is power. If you cannot access the incoming power connection easily, confirm the circuit breaker suppling power to the vent hood has not tripped.

05 - KitchenAid Range Vent Hood Control Board

Most range vent hood control boards have the buttons attached to the board. If you've determined that power is reaching the board, then it's likely the control board is defective and will need to be replaced. If there is a separate touchpad, it would be a good idea to replace both the control board and touchpad at the same time.
