Possible Causes

Weak mains supply or overloaded circuit, Loose neutral or live connection inside unit, Failing low‑voltage regulator on PCB, High resistance at heater terminals causing surges

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug before opening the housing.

  • Check outlet and circuit: Avoid using long extension leads or sharing the circuit with other high‑power appliances.
  • Inspect internal connections: Open the unit and check all screw terminals and push‑on connectors for tightness, especially at the mains input and heater.
  • PCB inspection: Look for bulging capacitors or heat‑damaged components in the low‑voltage section of the main PCB.

If flickering persists on a known good circuit with tight connections, the main PCB power supply is likely failing and should be replaced.
