    Thank you soooo much! I just bought at Target a month ago and I do not know why I hate the whole return process and I think they would require me to send to manufacture for replace which costs postage plus time waiting back and forth!
    I really like this air fryer and this so helpful to my family that you posted this.

      Go buy another one and take this one back. You’ll still end up with a new one and it’s just a way to work around not having your receipt especially if you only bought it 2 weeks ago. Now if it was past the stores return policy I wouldn’t recommend that because it would be dishonest.

      Try to remove the switch from the fryer before removing the wires so you can grab it and pull harder on it and you may need to do a little prying with a tiny screwdriver . Be sure it’s not plugged in to the outlet of course.

      So if you bypass the switch the fryer does not come on?? Have you already replaced the switch? It’s the switch 99% if the time. If it’s not the switch then the main board is bad and it’s not worth repairing at that point. Hopefully it’s the switch because those are only $4
