Quick answer
E31 — commonly associated with an electronics issue on a Bertazzoni range. Meaning can vary by model; verify before relying on it.
Model compatibility: Bertazzoni reuses codes across series and model years, so E31 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
On many Bertazzoni range models, E31 is commonly tied to a possible control-electronics problem. Series and control generations differ — confirm the wording in your model documentation before acting. Treat this as independent homeowner guidance from Bertazzoni Appliance Repair, not a substitute for model-specific service literature.
