Wolfgang Puck 5-Quart Electronic Pressure Cooker - Silver - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

I have this cooker and manual. the manual got wet and I had to take it apart to dry it out. I decided to scan it and make a new copy since the original is pretty rough from getting wet & some pages stuck together. It is readable. I would be willing to share the manual, with anyone interested. I am scanning it now (about 54 pages) and plan to make it a PDF file. I would be able to email it to you, send you a CD or Print it out and mail it to you. All I ask is that you pay what it costs me for paper, ink or CD and postage if I mail it to you. No charge for the PDF by email since I am doing that anyway. I would never have found this forum, except I was looking for a manual to purchase before I went to all this trouble. I don't think there is one to be found. I will check this website to see if anyone wants the manual.

IF you press and hold the top two buttons for 10 seconds the display will show a few numbers.. then press the bottom right button.. ours went right back to F4 and the only thing we could find mentioned is that a "sensor" was bad.. right out of the box this PC was JUNK.. awesome!

Try ebay, or thefind.com

The problem is a Signal Switch Malfunction. It has to do with the power switch and the pressure switch from what I have been able to find out. Mine doesn't have a pressure problem it just goes to E4 once you set the time. I gave the switch a good smack and it has been working for a while. This is the second time and this worked both times now. I am sure the switch will have to be replaced at some time. From what I have seen this is a very common problem. There is one way to fix this problem, albeit not the best. I was able to bypass the E4 error by completely bypassing the electronics and wiring the heater coil to get power whenever the pressure cooker is plugged in. It was a very simple job, anyone with any electrical experience can do this. The only problem is that it is a safety concern as there is no way for the heater to turn off even if pressure is getting to be way too high. There may be a pressure relief valve in the lid but the heater coil won't shut off, so don't leave it unattended! But at least this way to you can still pressure cook.

the digital lights on the Wolfgang Puck pressure cooker do not work. How do I repair? Thank you.

Hi, take a look on amazon, click here Holiday cooking made easy No plugs No fuss and chose which one fits. I hope this was helpful. Cheers

One quart is 32 ounces.

Just contact the company website and get one emailed in PDF format.

Removed the 3 screws on the bottom. There is a relay near the circuit board. Kind of looks like an old morse code relay. Just tapped out "E 4" in morse code. Plugged it in and it works fine.

There doesn't seem to be any legit way of fixing this. I tinkered with the pressure sensors and valves, kicked the pressure cooker a few times, still the E4 error presented itself.I was able to bypass the E4 error by completely bypassing the electronics and wiring the heater coil to get power whenever the pressure cooker is plugged in.

You did not specify a model number. Here is a link to download a Manual in PDF:http://www.wpcookware.com/instructions/BPCR0005.pdfIf this is not the Manual for your model, please reply with your specific model number.

I think E2 means open circuit in thermocouple in center of bottom. E4 means no contact on pressure sensing switch at edge of bottom. Mine had E4 error. Took out switch and used fine sandpaper to clean contact points. Now it works fine. Remove 3 screws in bottom. Remove bottom cover by turning it ~1/4" to clear tabs. Remove switch at edge of bottom with two blue wires going to it. Clean contacts and replace.

Which model do you have (since some post to Fixya under a header related to their unit but not their exact model)? The manuals are available on the product page at the Wolfgang Puck cookware site. The list of the current pressure cooker models is here: http://www.wpcookware.com/categories.asp?cat=29 . Click on your model and then look for the Use and Care Manual on the right side of the page. The direct link to the manual for the BPCR0005 (5 quart) is here: http://www.wpcookware.com/instructions/BPCR0005.pdf . I hope this helps. Cindy Wells
