How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Disconnect power and allow the unit to cool completely before inspection.
User-level checks:
- Visual inspection: Look at the grill element through the cavity (usually at the top). If it is visibly broken or warped, it likely needs replacement.
Technician-level checks:
- Access the top of the cavity to reach the grill heating element terminals.
- Test the element for continuity; replace if open.
- Check the grill thermostat / thermal cut-out for continuity.
- Inspect wiring and connectors for heat damage or looseness.
- Verify that the control board energizes the grill relay when grill mode is selected.
