Possible Causes

Blown internal fuse on main PCB, Faulty power cord, Tripped household circuit breaker, Failed main control board power supply section

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the ice maker before opening any panels. If you are not comfortable working with mains voltage, contact a professional.

Steps to troubleshoot no power:

  • 1. Check outlet: Plug a lamp or other device into the same outlet to confirm it has power. Reset any tripped breakers or GFCI outlets.
  • 2. Inspect power cord: Look for cuts, burns, or kinks in the HOMCOM power cord. If damaged, replace the cord assembly.
  • 3. Access internal fuse: Remove the rear or bottom panel to locate the fuse on or near the main PCB. Test it with a multimeter for continuity. Replace only with the same type and rating.
  • 4. Examine the PCB: Look for burnt components or bulging capacitors in the power supply section. If present, the board should be replaced.
  • 5. Reassemble and test: After replacing a fuse or cord, reassemble the unit, plug it in, and check for display activity.

Warning: If the new fuse blows immediately, disconnect the unit and seek professional service; there is likely a short circuit on the board or compressor circuit.
