Smoker will not power on at all; display is blank and no lights or sounds.

Safety first: Unplug the smoker before opening any panels. Do not bypass fuses with foil or wire.

• Verify outlet: Test the wall outlet with another appliance to confirm it has power.
• Inspect power cord: Check for cuts, crushed sections, or burn marks. Replace the cord if damaged.
• Check power switch: If your model has a physical power switch, ensure it clicks firmly and is not loose. Test continuity across the switch terminals when turned on.
• Inspect internal fuse: Open the control housing and locate the small fuse on the control board (if equipped). Remove and test with a multimeter. Replace only with the same type and rating if blown.
• Replace control board: If the fuse and switch are good but there is still no power, the control board’s power supply is likely failed and the board must be replaced.
