How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power and let the grill cool completely.

  • Visual inspection: Check the grill element for visible breaks or dark spots on one side.
  • Resistance test: Disconnect the element and measure resistance between each terminal combination (for dual elements). An open circuit on one section indicates failure.
  • Check terminals: Tighten or replace any loose or burnt spade connectors.
  • Replace element: If one circuit is open, replace the grill element with the correct Proline part.
