Could a failing Induction Generator Board cause the WOLF CI304 to have symptom: Not Detecting Pan?

The generator board is responsible for creating the high-frequency current that drives the induction coils and monitoring the feedback to confirm a pan is present. Failure of the sensing circuit or the switching transistors prevents the board from recognizing the magnetic load of the cookware. This board typically services a pair of zones, and its failure is the most common hardware cause for pan detection errors.

Could a failing Induction Coil Assembly cause the WOLF CI304 to have symptom: Not Detecting Pan?

While rare, a break in the Litz wire of the induction coil or a failure of the integrated RTD (Resistance Temperature Detector) can interrupt the circuit logic. If the control board receives an out-of-range signal from the coil's thermal sensor, it may default to a safety state and refuse to initiate the pan detection pulse.
