Possible Causes
Faulty internal power supply on control board, Loose mains power connector, Damaged power cord, Tripped internal fuse on PCB
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the smoker before any disassembly.
Steps:
- Check the outlet: Verify the wall outlet has correct voltage using another appliance. Avoid extension cords or power strips that may drop voltage.
- Inspect power cord: Examine the Klarstein smoker's power cord for cuts, kinks, or burn marks. Replace if damaged.
- Internal fuse: Remove the rear panel and locate any inline fuse or PCB‑mounted fuse near the power input. Test with a multimeter and replace with the same rating if blown. Investigate for shorts before replacing.
- Board power section: If fuses and cord are good, the low‑voltage power supply on the control board may be defective. Look for burnt components near the transformer or switching supply. Replace the main control board if faulty.
