If your GILES Commercial Food Equipment fryer won't turn on and the power light is off, first, ensure it's properly connected to a power source. If it is, check the fuse or circuit breaker. A cracked fuse holder should be replaced. If these steps don't solve the issue, the power switch might be faulty and require replacement. Finally, verify that the fryer is connected to the correct voltage source.
