The short answer
For F58, the published reading is the cooktop power control board or the wiring connected to it. That is the high-current side of the cooktop, so one reset is the owner’s limit.
Error codes
Reference| Code | Meaning |
|---|---|
| F58 | There may be a problem with the Cooktop Power Control Board, or the associated wiring. |
What the cooktop does with the code showing
- Keys respond but zones do not heat — The command arrives; the power does not.
- Several zones fail at once — They share the power board.
- A click or buzz from under the glass when a zone starts — The board trying to switch.
- NEAR MISS: keys do not respond at all — That points at the touch side rather than the power board.
Likely causes, in order
- Power control board failed — The most common cause: the board switches heavy current to the zones, and its components fail with heat and age.
- Burnt or loose high-current connection — Second: a high-current connector that has loosened and overheated.
- Heat from blocked ventilation — Third: a crowded drawer or tight installation below, or a clogged cooling fan, cooks the board.
- Supply problem — Last: a supply fault, which shows on other appliances too.
Where to start, and what comes next
- Breaker reset — The first check.
- Test zones one by one — Whether one, several or all fail guides the technician.
- Check the space beneath — Ventilation affects board life.
- Technician tests the board — Live-voltage work under the glass.
What you can safely do
- Breaker reset — Switch the breaker off for a minute, then on.
About 2 min
- Clear the underside — Make sure nothing below presses on the cooktop or blocks its vents.
About 10 min
- Note the trigger — Record whether the code comes at start-up or after cooking for a while.
Tools: notepad or phoneAbout 2 min
- STOP if the code returns a second time — Two returns after a clean reset rule out a passing glitch; what is left sits behind panels.
Power off before any panel
Safety
Switch off the cooktop’s breaker before removing it from the counter or opening anything underneath: most cooktops are hard-wired, with no plug to pull. A capacitor can hold a charge after the power is off. Let the glass cool before cleaning or inspecting it.
The point to call
Call when the code returns after a reset, and at once if you smell burning. Power board and high-current wiring work means lifting the cooktop with the power off and testing live circuits, which is technician work.

Scope of this reading
The reading above covers Amana electric and induction cooktops with touch controls. It does not cover Amana gas cooktops, Amana ranges, whose surface codes are listed with the oven codes, or sister brands on the same platform, whose lists can read differently. A model-specific page for F58, where one exists, is the more specific answer; none exists yet, so check the use-and-care guide for your exact model before ordering any part.
