Dash air fryer shows E6 and will not start; sometimes appears after a loud pop or spark.

Safety first: Unplug the air fryer immediately. If you saw smoke or smelled burning, do not attempt to power it again until inspected.

Step 1 – External inspection

• Check the outlet and plug for burn marks.
• If the breaker tripped, reset it only after unplugging the air fryer.

Step 2 – Internal inspection (advanced)

• Remove the housing screws and carefully open the unit (unplugged).
• Locate the main control board behind the front panel or in the base.
• Look for burned components, cracked solder joints, or exploded capacitors.
• Inspect wiring harnesses for melted insulation or arcing marks to the metal chassis.

Step 3 – Decide on repair vs. replacement

• If the control board shows any burn damage, replace the entire board; component-level repair is not recommended for most DIYers.
• If wiring is damaged, replace the affected harness and secure it away from sharp edges and hot surfaces.

Warning: Do not continue using an air fryer that has experienced an internal electrical fault. Fire and shock risks are significant. If under warranty, contact Dash support for replacement options.
