Possible Causes
Blown internal fuse on main PCB, Faulty power cord, Defective main control board, Failed internal power supply transformer or SMPS
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the unit before opening any covers. Mains voltage is dangerous.
Troubleshooting:
- Check outlet: Verify the wall outlet works by plugging in another appliance. Avoid using damaged extension cords.
- Inspect power cord: Look for cuts, kinks, or burn marks. If damaged, replace the power cord rather than attempting to repair it.
- Access main PCB: Remove the rear or bottom panel to locate the main control board. Look for an inline fuse or board-mounted fuse. Test with a multimeter and replace with the same rating if blown.
- Visual inspection: Check the PCB for burnt components or bulging capacitors. If present, the main control board should be replaced as a complete assembly.
- Professional help: If fuses are intact and there is still no power, contact a technician; internal SMPS troubleshooting is advanced work.
