Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Use caution when working with electrical outlets. If unsure, contact an electrician.
Steps:
- Check outlet: Plug a lamp or small appliance into the same outlet to verify power. Reset the breaker or replace fuses as needed.
- Inspect power cord: Look for cuts, burns, or crushed sections. If damaged, replace the power cord with an OEM part.
- Test another outlet: Temporarily plug the freezer into a known-good outlet (using a heavy-duty extension cord only for testing) to rule out outlet issues.
- Internal checks: If the outlet and cord are good but there is still no power, an internal thermal fuse or wiring may be open. This typically requires a technician to diagnose and repair.
