How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Mains voltage is dangerous. If you are not experienced, contact a professional.
Steps:
- 1. Check outlet: Plug another appliance (like a lamp) into the same outlet to confirm stable power. Avoid using extension cords.
- 2. Inspect power cord: Check the Amica freezer's power cord for cuts, kinks, or burn marks. Replace if damaged.
- 3. Access main PCB: With power disconnected, remove the rear panel and inspect the power input area on the control board. Look for burnt components, cracked varistors, or swollen capacitors.
- 4. Tighten connections: Ensure the mains connector and earth (ground) connections are tight.
- 5. Replace main PCB: If there is visible damage or E15 persists despite good supply, replace the "Amica Main Control Board".
Tip: Using a surge protector can help prevent future power-related board failures.
