How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Always turn off the circuit breaker and unplug the unit before opening any electrical compartments.
- Check household power: Verify the outlet has correct voltage using a meter or by plugging in another appliance. Reset any tripped breakers or GFCI outlets.
- Inspect power cord: Look for cuts, burns, or crushed sections. Replace the power cord if damaged.
- Access control board: Remove the control cover and check for an internal fuse. Test the fuse with a multimeter and replace with the same rating if blown. Investigate for short circuits if it blows again.
- Examine control board: Look for burnt traces or components on the main control PCB. If present, replace the board.
