Power Cords
The most likely reason your deep fryer won’t turn on is an issue with the power cord. Most deep fryer power cords connect to the unit magnetically, and can become easily disconnected if the fryer is bumped or moved. Make sure your power cord is properly connected before concluding it is faulty. The cord could be faulty because the internal wires are damaged, or the cord contacts are worn or dirty, resulting in a poor connection to the fryer. Replacing the power cord on your deep fryer is as easy as ordering a new one that is compatible with your model, no disassembly is required.

Assemblies
Your deep fryer may not be turning on because of an issue with the control assembly, which houses the thermostats, control board, and heating element. These parts heat the deep fryer, so if one is faulty, the unit will not turn on. Usually the control assembly can be removed from the deep fryer as one part, and the individual parts can be tested for continuity using a multimeter. Check your manual to find out what the correct reading should be. If one of these parts is not working, the whole control assembly typically needs to be replaced.
