Possible Causes

Tripped circuit breaker or blown fuse, Loose power terminal at indoor unit, Faulty indoor power supply PCB, Defective main power cord (portable/window units)

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Before opening any covers, turn off the breaker. For plug-in units, unplug from the outlet.

  • Check breaker and outlet: Reset the dedicated breaker and test the outlet with another appliance to confirm power is present.
  • Inspect power cord (portable/window): Look for cuts, burns, or kinks. Replace the cord if damaged.
  • Indoor terminal block: Remove the indoor unit’s electrical cover and verify that L and N wires are firmly secured and not burnt.
  • Fuse on PCB: Some Sharp indoor PCBs have a small fuse. If blown, investigate for short circuits before replacing with the same rating.
  • PCB replacement: If power is present at the terminals but the unit remains dead, the indoor main PCB or power supply module likely needs replacement.
