How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug before opening the housing. Avoid touching hot internal parts.
- Step 1 – Check cord fit: Ensure the plug fits snugly in the outlet and the cord is not being pulled or twisted during operation.
- Step 2 – Improve ventilation: Move the air fryer away from walls and cabinets to allow better airflow around the control area.
- Step 3 – Inspect internal connections: Remove the cover and check all connectors on the control board for tightness. Reseat any loose plugs.
- Step 4 – Look for heat damage: Examine the control board for browned areas or cracked solder joints, especially around large components. Replace the board if damage is found.
- Step 5 – Test operation: After reassembly, run a longer cycle and monitor whether the unit stays powered.
