Possible Causes

Tripped circuit breaker, Faulty wall outlet, Damaged power cord, Failed main control board or internal fuse

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn off the breaker before inspecting wiring. Do not work on live circuits.

Steps:

  • Check supply: Test the outlet with another appliance or a voltage tester. Reset any tripped breaker or replace blown fuses in the home panel.
  • Inspect power cord: Look for cuts, burns, or crushed sections. Replace the cord if damaged.
  • Internal fuse: Some Westinghouse models have an internal fuse on the control board. Access the board and check the fuse with a meter. Replace only with the same rating.
  • Control board: If power is present at the board but nothing powers up, replace the main control board.
