Possible Causes

Tripped circuit breaker or blown fuse, Faulty power outlet, Damaged power cord, Failed main control board power supply

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Ensure your hands are dry and the area is safe before working with electrical outlets.

  • Check household power: Verify the circuit breaker is not tripped and that other devices work on the same outlet.
  • Test outlet: Plug a lamp or tester into the outlet to confirm voltage is present. If not, contact an electrician.
  • Inspect power cord: Examine the Brandt power cord for visible damage. Replace the cord set if any cuts or burns are found.
  • Internal fuse: Some models have an internal fuse on the main PCB. With power disconnected, access the board and check the fuse. Replace only with the same rating if blown.
  • Control board replacement: If the outlet and cord are good but the unit remains dead, the main control board's power supply may have failed and the board should be replaced.
