Possible Causes

Mains overvoltage or brownout, Blown control board fuse, Failed low‑voltage power supply on PCB, Incorrect mains voltage selection

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off the circuit breaker and verify absence of voltage before opening the operator.

Step-by-step:

  • Check mains supply: Confirm correct voltage at the operator input (e.g. 230 V AC in EU) using a multimeter if you are qualified. Otherwise, have an electrician check.
  • Inspect fuses: Many Hormann control boards have a small glass or blade fuse. Replace only with the same rating and type if blown.
  • Look for surge damage: Burn marks, swollen capacitors or a burnt smell indicate PCB damage. In this case, the board must be replaced; do not attempt component‑level repair unless you are an electronics specialist.
  • Reset: After fuse replacement, restore power and test. If the error remains, replace the complete control board.
