Possible Causes

Tripped GFCI or breaker, Faulty power outlet, Damaged power cord, Failed control board power supply

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Before working on the grill, unplug it from the outlet.

  • Verify outlet: Plug a lamp or other appliance into the same outlet to confirm it has power. Reset any tripped GFCI or breaker.
  • Inspect power cord: Check the Memphis grill power cord for cuts, burns, or crushed sections. Replace the cord if damaged.
  • Check internal fuse (if equipped): Some controllers have an internal fuse. Remove the controller access panel and look for a fuse holder. With power disconnected, remove and inspect the fuse. Replace only with the same rating.
  • Inspect controller: Look for burnt components or a burnt smell on the control board. If present, the board is likely failed and should be replaced.
  • Replace control board: Label and disconnect all connectors, remove mounting screws, and install a Memphis-compatible replacement board. Reconnect wiring carefully and test power-on.
