FC E0 (also typed FCE0) is a cautious KitchenAid warning about power supply, wiring or the Induction Module. Try one breaker reset first.
Model compatibility: KitchenAid reuses codes across series and model years, so FCE0 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What this code means
KitchenAid says the electrical supply, its wiring or the Induction Module may have a problem.
Your KitchenAid cooktop is showing FC E0. On the manufacturer’s pages the code has a space in it, while most people key it in as FCE0; both spellings mean the same thing.
How KitchenAid words it
The company is careful here. It says only that there “may be a problem” with one of three things: the electrical supply, the associated wiring, or the Induction Module. Nothing on the page picks one of the three.
What the Induction Module is
Induction cooking warms the pan with a magnetic field, not a glowing element. The Induction Module is the electronic unit that drives that process. KitchenAid publishes no owner step that involves it.
The reset KitchenAid publishes
Find the breaker (or breakers) feeding the cooktop and switch it off for a full minute.
Switch it back on.
Stay with the cooktop for another minute to see whether FC E0 shows up again.
Try the cooktop and confirm it operates as usual.
If the code returns
The combined electric and induction page adds that you may need help from a qualified technician. Since the house supply is among the three possibilities, any checking of it belongs to a qualified person and not to the owner.
FC E4 concerns the harness running from the touchpad to the Induction Module.
Two common questions
Does FC E0 signal an electrical emergency? The source never describes it that way. The supply is just one of three named possibilities, and the advice is to reset power and keep watching.
Why does an electric cooktop mention an Induction Module? The code appears on both the electric and the induction cooktop pages with identical wording, and KitchenAid offers no explanation of the overlap.

Important safety warning. Do not attempt repairs involving electrical components, gas, water lines, refrigerant or sealed systems. Unplug the appliance if it is safe to reach the outlet, and leave internal diagnostics to a qualified technician.
