How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Disconnect the appliance from mains before opening any covers. If you smell burning or see smoke, do not attempt repair; contact a professional.

Steps:

  • Verify outlet: Plug another device into the same outlet to confirm it has power.
  • Inspect power cord: Check for visible damage. If damaged, replace the power cord set.
  • Check main switch: Ensure the on/off switch is in the ON position and not loose or broken. Test continuity with a multimeter if accessible.
  • Access internal fuse: Remove the rear or bottom panel to locate the fuse on or near the main control board. If blown, replace with the same rating only.
  • Look for board damage: Inspect the PCB for burnt components or cracked solder joints. If present, replace the main control board.
  • Do not bypass safety devices: Never bypass the fuse or switch; this can cause fire or electric shock.
