Coffee maker will not power on at all; no lights or display even when plugged in.

Safety first: Verify the outlet with another appliance. Unplug the coffee maker before any inspection.

• Check outlet and breaker: Confirm the outlet has power and that no circuit breaker or GFCI has tripped.
• Inspect power cord: Look for cuts, kinks, or burn marks on the cord. If damaged, do not use the unit.
• Try a different outlet: Plug the coffee maker directly into a wall outlet (no power strip) to rule out external issues.
• Internal components: If there is still no sign of life, an internal fuse, thermal fuse, or the control board may have failed. These parts are inside the sealed housing and require disassembly and live-voltage safety knowledge.
• Professional repair: Do not attempt to bypass fuses. Contact a qualified appliance technician or Cuisinart support for internal diagnostics and part replacement.
