Notes

An air fryer is essentially a compact convection oven, so the highest-stress parts are the heating element, fan motor, and temperature sensing/control electronics. Because these units are relatively affordable, repair only makes sense when the failure is minor and clearly isolated (basket/handle, door/latch, power cord) and labor is minimal.

If the unit is still within the early part of its life and replacement parts are inexpensive, a repair under the threshold can be reasonable. Replace is usually the safer choice when heating becomes uneven, the fan becomes loud or wobbly, the display/buttons fail, or safety cutoffs trip-those problems often involve multiple components.

Also consider replacement if grease infiltration has occurred, since it can cause repeated electrical issues.
