Identify the zone and the displayed behaviour
Describe whether one zone, a group of zones or the whole appliance is affected. Note the symbol or code exactly and whether it appears immediately or after cooking has started. For pan-recognition concerns, include the cookware you normally use and whether the issue began with different pans. These are observations for assessment, not a reason to assume the glass or a power module must be replaced.
Treat the installation and the appliance separately
Mention recent kitchen or electrical work, a new worktop and anything else changed before the fault began. Supply or cabinet alterations are not automatically part of a hob repair. Leave the hob fixed in the worktop; its underside and wiring are not areas to expose for a model-number search. Stop using cracked glass or an appliance that trips the electrical circuit.
Safe checks and deciding your next step
For checks that do not involve dismantling the appliance, read the electric & induction hob safety guidance. If you are weighing up a repair and a replacement, see what affects that decision. Your exact model handbook takes precedence over general guidance.
Details to include with this request

If you are considering a replacement
A replacement hob needs a compatible worktop opening, suitable clearances and an appropriate electrical connection. Send the installation requirements for the proposed model; a similar outside width does not prove it will fit.

Bosch electric & induction hob repair questions
Can you repair a hob that affects only one zone?
You can submit that enquiry. Identify the zone and whether the rest behave normally, but do not keep testing a damaged or unsafe surface. The office confirms the work required for the particular model.
Does this include Bosch gas hobs?
This page is for electric and induction hob enquiries. If the hob uses gas or combines fuel types, tell the office before booking so the necessary specialist arrangements can be confirmed separately.
Could the child lock explain unresponsive Bosch hob controls?
A selected child lock can make the controls unresponsive without establishing an electrical fault. Note any lock symbol and consult the child-lock instructions for the exact E-Nr; button combinations and timing are not universal. If the controls remain unresponsive, report what is displayed and whether the whole hob or only one zone is affected. Do not remove the hob or expose its wiring to investigate.
Could my pans explain why a Bosch induction hob does not heat?
Induction needs compatible cookware with a magnetic base of a suitable size for the cooking zone. Check the cookware information and your hob's handbook, and say whether the issue began with new pans or affects a pan that previously worked on that zone. Pan compatibility is one check, not a diagnosis of every no-heat fault. Do not heat an empty pan as a test or use a cracked hob surface.
