A rotisserie is a small heating appliance with a rotating spit. An open rotisserie has a covered heating element, a wire grilling rack, and a roasting spit that is turned by a motor. The rotisserie allows air to circulate freely around food for consistent heat. Fat drains away into a removable tray for disposal. Because many rotisseries have separate power cords for the motor and element, you also can use the appliance as an electric grill. An enclosed rotisserie has two heating elements, one on top and one on the bottom of the cabinet, so it also can serve as a broiler oven.
Disassemble a rotisserie:
- Make sure the appliance is unplugged and cool before you begin to disassemble it.
- Use screwdrivers and wrenches as needed to remove the motor from its support, then remove and separate the motor case.
- Remove the spit, supports, and grilling rack. Some components lift out or unplug while others require unfastening with screwdrivers and wrenches.
- You now can use a multimeter to test the motor, heating element, and appliance controls as needed.
