Three induction elements make up the CI243C/B, a 24-inch cooktop in Contemporary trim with the controls printed directly into the black glass rather than mounted on a separate bezel. Each element carries its own coil and cookware-detection sensor, independent of the other two.
A single element cutting out part-way through cooking, while the other two continue running normally, is one of the more distinctive induction complaints, and it almost always points to that specific element’s coil or detection circuit rather than anything shared across the cooktop. Reading the exact error code from the induction line’s set, if one appears, narrows it further before a visit.
