A button that takes two or three presses to register, or one that has stopped responding entirely while the rest of the panel works, is almost always a worn contact in the membrane rather than a fault on the control board. The membrane is also the seal that keeps moisture out of the switches, so a split or lifted pad is worth changing quickly even if everything still functions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBefore you order a board\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn a heater that fires and runs normally but is awkward to operate, the membrane is the cheap thing to rule out first.
