How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Ensure the unit is unplugged before inspection.
- Check outlet and fuse: Test the wall outlet with another device. Replace the plug fuse with the correct rating if blown.
- Inspect power cord: Look for visible damage along the cord. If damaged, replace the entire cord set.
- Test power switch: Access the switch and test continuity with a multimeter. Replace if it does not close when switched on.
- Check motor thermal fuse: Some Philips motors have an inline thermal fuse. If open, the motor will not receive power and the fuse or motor assembly must be replaced.
