How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Working on mains circuits is hazardous. Unplug the freezer before any inspection.
Steps:
- 1. Check outlet: Test the wall socket with another appliance to ensure stable power. Avoid extension leads.
- 2. Inspect power cord: Look for cuts, kinks, or burn marks on the Belling freezer's power cord. Replace if damaged.
- 3. Internal connections: Remove the rear control cover and check that the mains input terminals on the PCB are tight and not discoloured.
- 4. PCB inspection: Look for bulging capacitors or burnt components in the power supply section of the PCB. If present, replace the main control PCB.
