Possible Causes
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Ensure the outlet is properly grounded. Do not open the unit while it is plugged in.
Steps to troubleshoot no power:
- Check outlet: Plug another device (like a lamp) into the same outlet to confirm it has power.
- Inspect power cord: Look for cuts, kinks, or burn marks on the Silonn power cord. If damaged, the cord must be replaced.
- Reset GFCI/breaker: If the outlet is on a GFCI or breaker, reset it and try again.
- Access control board: Unplug the unit, remove the rear or bottom panel, and locate the main control board. Check for a small replaceable fuse on the board.
- Check fuse: Use a multimeter to test continuity of the fuse. Replace it with the same rating if blown. If it blows again immediately, there is a deeper electrical fault.
- Inspect connectors: Ensure the AC input connector is firmly seated on the board and there are no burnt components.
- Replace board: If the fuse is good but there is still no power, replace the main control board.
When to call a professional: If you see burnt components or are not comfortable working around mains voltage, contact a qualified technician.
