Should E91 come up on an induction cooktop made by Whirlpool, the published answer is a reset of the breaker. No cause accompanies the code.
Reset steps
Shut the power down at the breaker and hold it there for one minute. Once the minute is up, turn the power back on. Give the cooktop time to cool before using it. Spend one minute watching for the code to reappear. Then confirm that the cooktop operates.
