How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety First: Turn off power before tightening electrical connections.
- Check plug and outlet: Ensure the plug fits tightly in the outlet and that there is no discoloration or heat damage.
- Inspect cord and connections: Look for loose wire nuts or connectors at the terminal block and control board.
