Error code E_H
Appliance Cooktop
Quick answer

E_H means the cooktop is too hot and the control panel switches off. Wait for it to cool, then reset the power.

Model note: Whirlpool reuses codes across series and model years, so E_H may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

Whirlpool

What this code may mean.

A plain-language reading of the code — always confirm against your model’s documentation.

The cooktop is too hot and the control panel switches off because of excessively high temperatures.

When an induction cooktop shows E_H, it is reporting excessive heat: the control panel shuts itself off.

What E_H means

Excessive heat has built up and the control panel switches off. Wait for the cooktop to cool down before using it again.

The code is listed for induction cooktops.

How to clear it

Flip the breaker(s) to off, then wait one (1) minute. Then turn the breaker(s) on to power the cooktop up. Before using it again, wait until the cooktop has cooled. Monitor the cooktop for one (1) minute; the error code should not display again. Check that cooking operation is back.
