How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the air fryer before removing the control panel.

Steps to restore display:

  • 1. Check viewing angle and lighting: Ensure the issue is not simply due to glare or viewing angle. If the display is truly dim or missing segments, continue.
  • 2. Access control panel: Remove screws securing the top or front fascia to expose the display module and its ribbon cable.
  • 3. Reseat connectors: Gently disconnect and reconnect the display ribbon cable to the main control PCB. Ensure it is fully seated and locked.
  • 4. Inspect for heat damage: Look for discoloration or warping of the display or surrounding plastic, which may indicate overheating.
  • 5. Replace display or board: If reseating does not help, replace the display module. If the display is integrated into the main control PCB, replace the entire board.
