What E22
actually means.
Garland induction griddles use RTCS sensing to hold the plate temperature. When that sensor fails, the griddle switches off and shows E22. There is no flash code, and Garland's only action is a service call.

What to do when E22 shows on the commercial applianceKind of codeSensors and probes
A probe is handing the controller a reading it cannot trust, or none at all: a box or coil sensor torn loose from its clip, a fryer probe coated in carbon from oil left too long between filterings, a combi core probe with a kinked cable, or a connector gone green from steam and cleaning chemicals. The unit then runs on, stops, or shuts the heat or the cooling off to protect itself. Letting it cool and restarting it as the manual describes is fair; a probe that still reads wrong sits behind a panel, and that is a visit.

Controllers, touch panels, relays, contactors and interlocks tested, and replaced only when the evidence says so.

A commercial appliance error code appears as letters or numbers on a combi, fryer, reach-in controller, dish machine or laundry machine display, or as a flashing light or an alarm tone.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from Garland's own guidance for E22 on its commercial appliances. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Switch the griddle off and let the plate cool.
Move griddle items to another surface.
Do not try to reach the sensor under the plate.
Book a visit to replace the RTCS sensor.
Still there?
It usually turns into commercial controls and board repair. Book with the code and the model number.
What not to do
E22 is not a plate that is too hot; that is E47 on griddles and braising pans. Garland lists it for griddles only, so it will not appear on a hob or wok.

A booking with a code goes further when it has the code as shown, the model and serial from the data plate, and a word on whether the unit still holds temperature, heats, rinses or spins. With those three, the office can match the likely part to your unit the same day.
