Hidden-control machines route every wire for the fascia through the door hinge, and on the G2183SCVi that ribbon cable is a genuine wear point after a decade of the door swinging. The tell is a panel that works normally with the door wide open and goes dead as you close it. It is worth checking before anyone replaces a control board on this model, because the signs look identical from the kitchen side.
