Ice maker does not power on at all; no lights or display, no sounds.

Safety first: Ensure your hands are dry and the outlet is in good condition before testing power.

Steps to troubleshoot no power:

• Check outlet: Plug another appliance or lamp into the same outlet to verify it has power. Reset any tripped circuit breakers or GFCI outlets.
• Inspect power cord: Examine the Galanz ice maker's power cord for cuts, burns, or kinks. If damaged, replace the power cord assembly.
• Try a different outlet: Move the unit to a known-good outlet without extension cords or power strips.
• Internal fuse: If comfortable, remove the rear or bottom panel and locate the control board fuse. Check continuity with a multimeter. Replace with the same rating if blown.
• Control board: If the fuse is good and power is present at the board input but the unit remains dead, the main control board is likely defective and should be replaced.

When to call a technician: If you are not comfortable working around live electrical circuits or replacing the control board, seek professional service.
