Possible Causes

Weak SMPS output capacitor, Loose display connector, Failing LED/LCD display module, Overloaded low‑voltage rail on PCB

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug before opening the control area.

  • Check mains stability: Avoid sharing the outlet with heavy appliances that cause voltage dips.
  • Inspect display connector: Remove the front panel and ensure the display module connector is firmly seated on the PCB.
  • Examine capacitors: On the main PCB, look for bulging or leaking electrolytic capacitors in the low‑voltage section. Replace the PCB if defective.
  • Replace display module: If the supply is stable but the display remains dim, replace the LED/LCD display module specific to your Severin model.

Warning: Do not short test points on the PCB; this can damage the microcontroller.
