The power indicator light is not coming on and the cabibet itself is not heating up beyond the heat the smoke generator is supplying. I am thinking it might be a fuse? Any thoughts? If it is the fuse where is it and how do I get to it? Is there a fuse other than the one on the smoke generator? I appreciate everybody's help. Thanks.

Make sure you have a good connection on all your plugs.
Not sure on the digital, but if you take the back off the OBS you will see the fuse connected to the temp sensor. You can take readings to see if it is blown. Since I eliminated the plug, or the temp slider as being the problem. So it was down to the fuse. I cut the red wire below the fuse and above it and spliced it together. Everything then worked. Since I have a PID I felt it was okay to use it while I waited for a replacement from Yard and Pool (bought 2 since they are cheap and I like the insurance.)
Hi BFR;
Welcome to the forum.

If you remove the back panel, while it is off check the connections going to the plug. Also make sure the connections to the element are tight, but don't over tighten them or you will strip the treads.
