Possible Causes

Tripped household breaker or GFCI, Faulty power outlet, Damaged power cord, Loose power connections at control board

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Ensure the grill is switched OFF before plugging or unplugging.

  • Test the outlet with another device to confirm power. Reset any tripped GFCI or breaker.
  • Inspect the grill’s power cord for visible damage. Replace if cut, frayed, or burned.
  • Remove the controller from the front panel and verify that the incoming power wires are securely attached to the control board terminals.
  • If the outlet and cord are good but the display remains dead, replace the control board.

Warning: Do not bypass safety grounds or use extension cords that are undersized for the grill’s current draw.
