How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn OFF and unplug the grill before removing the control panel.

Steps:

  • Inspect control panel: Check for visible cracks, water ingress, or condensation behind the display lens. Dry the area thoroughly if moisture is present.
  • Check connections: Remove the control panel mounting screws and gently pull the panel forward. Inspect the ribbon cable or harness between the display/keypad and the main control board. Reseat connectors firmly.
  • Look for corrosion: Examine connector pins for green/white corrosion. Clean lightly with contact cleaner and a soft brush.
  • Test operation: Reassemble, plug in, and test all buttons. If certain keys remain unresponsive, the keypad or display module may need replacement.

Note: If the entire panel is dead but power is present, the main control board may be faulty and should be replaced by a qualified technician.
