Unox WC01

What does Unox WC01 mean?

WC01 is a temperature probe warning on the hood accessory. The hood's temperature probe is reading abnormally or is disconnected. Because it relates to a peripheral accessory, the oven can still be used while the hood function is impaired and the warning is shown.

Symptoms

• WC01 warning referencing the hood
• Hood temperature reading abnormal
• Hood function impaired while the oven still runs
• Warning recurs during operation

Common causes

• Hood temperature probe disconnected
• Probe out of range or failed
• Wiring fault between the probe and the hood board
• Connector problem

Diagnostic steps

1. 01

   Power down and check the probe

   Turn off power and confirm the hood temperature probe is connected.

2. 02

   Measure the probe

   Measure the hood probe with a multimeter to check it is within range.

3. 03

   Check the wiring

   Inspect the wiring between the probe and the hood board.

4. 04

   Replace the probe

   Replace the hood temperature probe if it is out of specification and retest.

When to call a professional

WC01 affects the hood accessory and the oven can still be used. Confirming the probe and wiring requires accessing the hood electronics; have a qualified Unox technician verify and replace the probe if reconnecting it does not clear the warning.
