Possible Causes
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Ensure the dryer is unplugged before opening any covers.
External checks:
- Test the wall socket with another appliance.
- Check and replace the fuse in the dryer plug if blown, using the correct rating.
Internal checks:
- Remove the top cover and inspect the mains terminal block for loose wires or heat damage. Tighten screws and replace burnt parts.
- Check the mains cable for visible damage; replace if necessary.
Control board: If power is present at the terminal block but the dryer remains dead, the main control PCB power supply is likely faulty and the board will need replacement by a qualified technician.
