Now for the perplexing part; it's not a difficult repair, nor is it

not do anything. It won't even turn off from the panel; the "off"


Looks like the processor has halted. All the display segments
are lit up, and that's why you get 8.8.
Power supply issues, to the CPU, maybe (5 volt problem)?
Look for a bad filter capacitor on the control board.
Check both PC boards. Though it's not likely the motor control.
Sounds like a CPU power issue. Pray that you didn't blow the
CPU (a costly replacement, although this is rare).
