How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the smoker before removing the control panel.

Steps:

  • Remove the control panel bezel and carefully disconnect the keypad ribbon cable from the main board.
  • Inspect the cable for cracks or corrosion; clean contacts gently with isopropyl alcohol and reconnect firmly.
  • Check for signs of moisture or condensation inside the control housing; dry thoroughly and allow to air dry.
  • If specific buttons consistently fail while others work, the keypad membrane is likely worn and should be replaced as an assembly.
