Why your commercial kitchen hood is won't start
Here's how won't start typically presents on a commercial kitchen hood: unit completely dead, no lights, no response. Door switch, control board, or power issue. Nine times out of ten it comes down to failed main control board.
Most likely causes
- A failed start capacitor
- A blown line fuse
- Faulty door switch or interlock
- Tripped thermal protector
Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Before you call anyone, try a different outlet if one's available, to rule out a dead circuit rather than the unit itself. Also, check the outlet and breaker, and confirm the door is fully closed and latched — many units won't start at all with a door safety switch tripped. If none of that changes anything, a control board fault has to be tested with a meter against the service manual — swapping the board on a guess is an expensive way to be wrong.
