Possible Causes
Sticking heater relay on main PCB, Overheated relay contacts, Cold solder joints on relay pins, Faulty triac or driver circuit on PCB
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the air fryer and wait for it to cool. Internal components are connected to mains voltage; do not touch live circuits.
- Access main PCB: Remove the rear or bottom cover to expose the main control PCB. Identify the heater relay or triac (often a rectangular relay or a triac mounted with a heatsink).
- Inspect for heat damage: Look for discoloration, melted plastic, or burnt PCB traces around the relay or triac. If present, the board should be replaced.
- Check solder joints: Examine the underside of the PCB for cracked or dull solder joints on the relay pins. Reflowing solder should only be done by someone experienced with electronics.
- Functional test: If you are qualified, you can test whether the relay clicks when the unit calls for heat. Lack of clicking or intermittent operation indicates a failing relay or driver circuit.
- Replace main PCB: For most users, the practical repair is to replace the entire main control PCB with a compatible Hisense part rather than attempting component-level repair.
