Possible Causes
Undersized extension cord, Loose power cord connection, Failing internal power supply, Loose neutral or ground connection
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the smoker before checking connections.
- Avoid extension cords: Plug the smoker directly into a properly grounded wall outlet.
- Check cord fit: Ensure the plug fits snugly in the outlet and the cord is firmly attached at the smoker inlet.
- Inspect internal connections: Access the control compartment and tighten any loose screw terminals or push-on connectors (with power disconnected).
- Monitor behavior: If flickering persists, the internal low-voltage power supply on the control board may be failing and the board should be replaced.
