Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit before inspecting the cord or opening any covers.

External checks:

  • Test the outlet with another appliance to confirm power.
  • Check that any GFCI outlet or breaker has not tripped; reset if necessary.
  • Inspect the power cord for cuts, kinks, or burn marks. Do not use the unit if the cord is damaged.

Internal fuse (advanced):

  • Remove the bottom cover to locate the inline fuse or fuse on the control board.
  • If the fuse is visibly blown or tests open with a meter, replace it only with the same rating.

If a new fuse blows immediately or the board shows burn damage, the control board or heater is shorted and the unit should be professionally serviced or replaced.
