Possible Causes
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the coffee maker before opening any covers. Avoid using extension cords or power strips for high-wattage appliances.
- Use dedicated outlet: Plug the coffee maker directly into a wall outlet, not a power strip shared with other high-draw devices.
- Test another outlet: Try a different circuit to rule out household wiring issues.
- Inspect internal wiring (advanced): Remove the base and check for loose wire nuts, push-on connectors, or burnt terminals. Reseat or replace as needed.
If flickering persists on a known-good circuit, the internal power supply or control board may be failing and should be replaced.
