How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit before any inspection. If you smell burning or see smoke, do not attempt repair—contact a professional.

  • Step 1 – Verify outlet: Plug a lamp or phone charger into the same outlet to confirm it has power. Reset any tripped breakers or GFCI outlets.
  • Step 2 – Check power cord: Inspect the cord for cuts, frays, or crushed sections. Wiggle the plug gently in the outlet while watching for any flicker on the display (if it briefly comes on, the cord or plug may be loose internally).
  • Step 3 – Try another outlet: Plug the air fryer directly into a different, known-good outlet without an extension cord.
  • Step 4 – Internal fuse check (advanced): With the unit unplugged and housing removed, locate the internal line fuse on or near the control board. If it is visibly blown (broken filament or darkened glass), it must be replaced with the exact same rating. A blown fuse often indicates another fault (shorted element or board).
  • Step 5 – Professional diagnosis: If the fuse is intact and there is still no power, the control board or power supply section is likely faulty and should be serviced or replaced by a technician.
