Possible Causes

Open-circuit grill heating element, Faulty grill temperature sensor, Loose wiring to grill assembly, Defective relay on control PCB

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety warning: Unplug the appliance and allow it to cool completely before working near the grill element.

  • Step 1 – Visual inspection: Inspect the grill element inside the cavity for visible breaks, burn spots, or sagging. A broken element must be replaced.
  • Step 2 – Access terminals: Remove the outer cover to access the rear of the grill element. Check that the spade connectors are tight and not heat-damaged.
  • Step 3 – Test grill element: Disconnect one terminal and measure resistance across the element with a multimeter. An open circuit indicates a failed element.
  • Step 4 – Check grill sensor: Locate the grill temperature sensor (if fitted) near the element. Inspect wiring and measure resistance; replace if out of specification.
  • Step 5 – Control board: If the element and sensor are good, the grill relay on the control PCB may be faulty. This requires PCB repair or replacement by a qualified technician.
