Why is the induction cooker not generating heat?
As a common appliance in modern kitchens, induction cookers are deeply loved by users for their high efficiency and safety. However, when the induction cooker suddenly stops producing heat, it often leaves people at a loss. This article will combine hot topics and user feedback from the entire Internet in the past 10 days to analyze common reasons and solutions for induction cookers not heating up, and provide structured data for reference.
1. Common reasons why induction cookers do not generate heat

According to recent user feedback and maintenance data, the main reasons why induction cookers do not generate heat can be divided into the following categories:
| Cause classification | Specific performance | Proportion (data in the past 10 days) |
|---|---|---|
| power problem | Poor socket contact and damaged power cord | 35% |
| Pots and pans do not match | Non-magnetic pots or pots with uneven bottoms | 25% |
| Overheating protection | Excessive temperature caused by long-term use | 20% |
| Hardware failure | IGBT module is damaged and capacitor fails | 15% |
| Improper operation | Function mode not selected correctly | 5% |
2. Solutions and troubleshooting steps
For the above problems, you can follow the following steps to troubleshoot one by one:
1.Check power connection: Make sure the socket is powered and the power cord is not damaged. Replace the power cord if necessary.
2.Verify pot suitability: Use a magnet to test the bottom of the pot. If the magnet does not adhere, you need to replace it with a pot specially designed for induction cookers.
3.Restart induction cooker: Turn off the power and wait for 10 minutes, then restart after the overheating protection is reset.
4.Check fault code: Some induction cookers will display error codes (such as E1/E2). You can check the meaning according to the manual.
| fault code | Possible reasons | solution |
|---|---|---|
| E1 | No pot or pot does not match | Replace compliant pots and pans |
| E2 | Voltage too low | Check home circuit |
| E3 | Overheating protection | Suspend use and cool down |
3. Top 3 recent high-frequency user problems
According to the analysis of social platform data in the past 10 days, the following issues are most concentrated:
1."The induction cooker is powered on but cannot heat": Mostly due to IGBT module failure, professional maintenance is required.
2.“Heating on and off”: Usually caused by dust accumulation on the cooling fan, it can be improved after cleaning.
3."Panel shows normal but no heat": There is a high probability that the resonant capacitor has failed and the components need to be replaced.
4. Preventive maintenance suggestions
1. Clean the air inlet and cooling fan regularly to avoid dust accumulation that affects heat dissipation.
2. Use original accessories to avoid safety hazards caused by inferior power cords.
3. Disconnect the power supply when not in use for a long time to extend the life of the capacitor.
Through the above analysis and data display, users can systematically troubleshoot the problem of induction cookers not heating up. If the solution by yourself is ineffective, it is recommended to contact the official after-sales service. Do not disassemble it at will to avoid the risk of electric shock.
