Possible Causes
Faulty internal power supply on PCB, Loose mains connection, Brownout or unstable mains voltage, Damaged power cord
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Danger: Mains voltage is present. Unplug the freezer before inspecting the power path.
- Check outlet: Test the wall socket with another appliance to confirm stable power.
- Inspect power cord: Look for cuts, kinks, or burn marks on the Balay freezer's power cable and plug.
- Check plug and socket fit: Ensure the plug fits tightly in the socket without excessive heat.
- Internal inspection: If comfortable, remove the PCB cover and check for burnt components in the power supply section (near where the mains enters the board).
- Professional repair: If F6 persists and external power is good, the internal power supply on the main control board is likely faulty and requires board replacement by a technician.
