Possible Causes
Partially burnt heating element, Loose or oxidized heater terminals, Undervoltage due to poor household wiring
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the cooker before internal inspection.
- Test with known-good outlet: Plug into a different outlet on a separate circuit to rule out low household voltage.
- Check heater terminals (advanced): Remove the bottom cover and inspect heater connections for looseness or corrosion. Clean and tighten as needed.
- Measure heater resistance: Compare measured resistance to manufacturer specs. A significantly higher resistance than normal indicates a failing element.
- Replace heater plate: If the element is partially open or damaged, replace the heater plate assembly.
- Monitor performance: After repair, run a water boil test to confirm normal heating speed.
