How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: If you are not comfortable working with mains electricity, contact a qualified technician.

  • Check outlet and fuse: Test the wall socket with another appliance. Check and replace the plug fuse (UK) with the correct rating if blown.
  • Inspect power cord: Look for cuts, burns, or kinks in the Hoover dryer power cord. Do not use the appliance if the cord is damaged; replace it.
  • Check on/off switch: If your model has a physical power switch, ensure it clicks positively. Access the switch behind the control panel and test continuity with a multimeter.
  • Internal mains filter: Some models have a mains interference filter at the entry point. Inspect for burning or loose connections. Replace if damaged.
