Induction cooktops contain a substantial amount of power electronics, and the KM5731 relies on a cooling fan underneath to keep it within limits. After fifteen years that fan is usually full of dust from the cabinet below. The result is a cooktop that works perfectly for twenty minutes and then starts cutting zones out, which owners understandably read as an electronics failure when it is really a cleaning job.
